Now we need to figure out how all that coolant leaked out in the first place. Will check tomorrow morning for a puddle under the car. Leaking...
Figured out we were just extremely low on coolant. Added coolant up to the base of the filler neck on the radiator, topped up the reserve tank,...
OK, I'll run actuator check mode later and investigate what's going on with the air mix door. I don't hear the servo thrashing back and forth as...
We took our 2002 out today to keep the 12V charged, and we discovered we have no heated air coming from the vents. The climate system blows...
I got the strut replaced by an independent shop. The technician reported that he didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, and that nothing...
Ever since the weather has been getting warmer, we have noticed a metallic clunking sound in the drivers-side front end of our 2002. It is most...
Gen 1 absolutely has an EV mode. Up to 40 mph under light throttle, with the right conditions, the engine will stop and the vehicle will be...
Is "golf-cart mode" EV mode? I read that after 70 C ICE coolant temp, the ICE must do an "idle check" at a stop for 5-10 seconds in order to...
Very late ignition timing (retarded all the way) super-rich fuel mix, and higher idle speed. Boom, flamethrower.
Learned a bit more about the Gen 1 warmup. It appears that the ICE blasts flames down the cats for the first 30 secs, to warm them up ASAP. I have...
Is the elimination of the "little sliver of always friction" on Gen 2 due to the addition of EBD, or due to different system design? I'm guessing...
Is the brake-by-wire system in the 1st gen basically the same architecture as the 2nd gen (similar sensors, actuators, etc) with the exception of...
I UNDERSTAND that the PTC heater isn't very powerful. It's pretty much only there to provide a little warmth before the ICE is warmed up, similar...
Yes, we had an installer come over and install the pack! The auto climate was set to 68, and the trip was a few miles each way. I was under the...
Hey, fellow Gen 1 owners! Just got a rebuilt battery put in our 2002 (Green Bean Battery) with a new ECU as well. Took the car out yesterday to...
UPDATE: put the 12V on a charger and now it runs fine. Now we need to get that interlock checked out...
The vehicle was off. The key was taken out. For some reason that interlock isn't working. Is something wrong with the ignition switch itself?
A week, key OFF, in Drive. Hybrid system was off.
My grandfather and I bought a 2002 a couple months ago. It has been well maintained (was an electrical company car) and is still on its original...
