    Many here use the mini-vci cable with techstream, others have used a ODB2 blue tooth adapter with various mobile Apps.

    Any idea how to keep the fan running on high speed for the battery? I am planning to install PC cooling fans.

    Hey prius gurus,

    so I just took my battery apart and tested each cell, they all read 8v!?!?! My I got the triangle of death and it showed on my mechanics computer that module 2 had gone bad. But after just doing a volt meter test they all came to be 8v, should I load test them? If load testing what am I looking for in terms of dropped V withing a certain time frame, like what is good and what is bad? Thanks again

    It is not a good idea to post the same thing in multiple threads. I answered in the other one.
