Separate names with a comma.
OK, I didn't follow that about ready mode and starter relay. This is about charging the car, when the car is (presumably) turned off. Let me...
Yeah, me too -- why wouldn't they use 120V for the battery heater? But this fellow (Weber auto, from Weber State U, link below) does a tear-down,...
OK, I tend to be wordy. Let me boil down the question. Assume I have a Prius Prime, in a situation where the battery heater would normally run....
I hope this is a stupid question, and I hope that there is a clear answer. If it's cold out (below 2C), and I have the car plugged in (the J1772...
FWIW, I have a few thoughts on this. To cut to the chase, make sure that your battery heater function is turned on. Apparently, for whatever...
Hey, I resemble that remark. But also, in my defense, when I turn it that second click -- to parking lights -- the car puts the dash into...
This post is for your amusement, as I am almost certain I'm that my wife and I are the only drivers in North America to have made this mistake....
I'm looking into putting in a tracker, but it's my wife's car, so I have to tread lightly and get permission. FWIW, let me write out what I...
Whoa, mind blown. Thank you for that post, I did not realize that Toyota Safety Connect provides a stolen car locator service. I've always turned...
Sure, I could just take the battery out, if I'm that worried. But I think Ford has it right with auto-sleep, which I think eliminates much of the...
Prius never makes any of the top-15 most-stolen-car lists. So I get that this can't be a big problem. And yeah, I'm more likely to have the...
Just FYI, it appears that all modern Toyota fobs can be put into "sleep" (non-responsive) mode by holding the lock button and pressing unlock...
Entered in error, sorry
A relay attack happens when a thief uses a radio or radios to transmit the car's SKS/keyless entry signal to a distant keyfob, and relay that...
There are five pins. Pretty sure the two big ones are for current, then there are three that look like (as noted above) they are used for...
Sounds to me as if you've diagnosed it right, unfortunately. My sole suggestion is to get a flashlight, open the charging port, and carefully...
I can take a rough cut at showing that, based on amperage required to drive a steady 55 MPH on level highway. I estimate that to be 35 amps,...
Story #1: Unbelievable customer service from Scangauge/Linear Logic I bought a Scangauge 3, which I absolutely love. The sole drawback, so far,...
Sorry, that was just poor writing on my part. The "it" that I meant was the portable power station, not the car. Separately, that's admirably...
Got it. I think some of the comments were led astray by calling those ICE miles. If you substitute the term "hybrid mode", or "HV" miles, then I...
