    70,000 miles on replacement HV battery that Toyota replaced on warranty at 140000 miles. Dr Prius shows no codes and 70% remaining on the replacement HV battery….

    Thanks again…..Bumblebee says temp should not be above 110….at times I’m at 118, so that could be the issue….I tried to access the HV battery fan for cleaning today but getting to fan was more involved than I had time for….
