Thanks for this helpful site, I do have very similar errors on 2008 Prius and replaced the battery yesterday by Toyota but error codes are still on As I read the forum someone said he clear the codes .My error codes from Toyota is Air Bag DTC B1653,B1655,B1821,B1826 OSF, NSF seat wire harness req Repair and Transmission ECU Dtc C2300,C2318 Actuator System malfunction. Please advice me Thank you, Regards,
1. It appears your car was in an accident. Was the damage fully repaired? Did the accident impact any wiring harnesses? If yes, this must be correctly repaired. 2. What condition is the 12V battery in? Is it fully-charged? If not take care of that first. 3. Can the car be driven in its current condition or not? 4. Did the accident damage impact the transaxle? If so the parking pawl may have been damaged.
Dear Sir Sorry for the late reply. Theirs no accident but had small knock long time ago just dent the front bumper.I have change the 12 battery last week (by Toyota)I can use the car but when the lights come feeling abs is not functioning and same time time to time warning is disappearing too. After replacing did the another diagnostic test result is C1300 ECU malfunctioning. Please please help. My car has done only 19000 miles Kind Regards, Sam Da Silva
What DTC other than C1300 are now appearing? If no other DTC appear, then the skid control ECU needs to be replaced. This is hiding behind the dashboard near the steering wheel column (at least on North American vehicles.)
Dear Sir Their is no other code appear Is it a very expensive to change? Mr Patrick. Thanks for the reply, Kind Regards
Are you in London UK or London Kentucky? If you are in London UK there are plenty of car breakers that will sell you a replacement from a wreck at a fraction of the new cost. This must also apply if you are in the US, but others will guide you if this is the case. John (Britprius)
It is not easy to replace the skid control ECU because much of the dashboard has to be disassembled. If you are in the UK, you can obtain repair manual info here: Toyota Service Information And as John pointed out, it would make sense to buy a used skid control ECU, for example from eBay - or a local salvage yard.
Thanks for the posts I'm in the UK and E bay is selling around £80.00 with 12 months warranty. I'm taking my car back to Garage this week end and already asked Toyota to help me too. It means We need to dismantle the much of the dashboard nearer to steering . Thank you again
If you update your avatar to show you live in the UK this will speed up the help you will get. Also your car cannot be a model 2 unless it is a US import as the only available Prius models in the UK are T3, T4, and Tspirit. The US version of the Prius has some major differences to the UK Prius mostly related to the fuel tank, engine cooling systems, rear brakes, and service intervals. There are others. This makes the UK Prius somewhat easier and cheaper to maintain than it's US cousins. Please let us know the outcome to your problems as this could help others. John (Britprius)
Dear Mr John I have tried many many time posting me as a UK but somehow Priuschat did not recognized me Im desparate to get a help I just post My city is London Which is correct. Hope you understand. Even uk sites asked me to get a help from you. Kind Regards
If you click on your name at the top right of the screen, then scroll down to location. Change this to London UK. Then at the bottom choose save changes. John (Britprius)Well done. John (Britprius)
