I just took my mother’s 2010 Prius to the Toyota dealership with the problems described in this video. I was quoted over $4,000 to overhaul the inverter with the 4 DTC’s herein. I happened to watch this video just before giving repair permission … it was completely covered as described here!!! Without this info I would have been fleeced. Can’t thank you enough!!!
Oh wow. Why didn't they tell you it was covered? Maybe a new service tech or writer.
@@TheYotaChannel Actually she has been there for some time … not good PR
Woo 😮 ooozers
I think there's a Toyota manufacturer 1800 number you need to call and they'll make the arrangement with the dealer I called that 1800 number once before and need it now for myself but I don't remember what it was.
Thank you so much for the information. I have 2010 prius. Master warning ⚠️ on with check hybrid system message. Brought the car to toyota dealership & got a new inverter installed for free. Thank you!!!
Glad it helped
Very well made video by a fantastic technician.
Many thanks!
I am so impressed with the competent and conscientious Hybrid expert like yourself. I don't own a Prius, but I have owned and have driven a 2007 Hybrid Camry for 17 years. Fortunately, I have had no problems or issues with the hybrid system. You make me feel very confident of Toyota's quality and people working there whenever I take my car to Toyota for maintenance services. Thank you.
P0894, P0818, P324E, P3004 Thank you so much for doing this video.
If you have those codes stored, there is an extended warranty available.
I totally switched out my inverters and was able to do it much easier thanks to this video. I checked on my warranty and because my Prius is a Salvage they won't warranty it.. I just happen to have another 2010 that I bought from a friend for parts and switched them out. I will go and buy the special antifreeze then flush and fill and bleed it then try to start it. Fingers crossed.
How did it go?
@abdul-kabiralegbe5660 Not good it still has issues and won't run. Thank you though.
@@speedytaxillc5580 You're welcome.
Great video. Thank you
You are welcome!
This video is amazing!! Your technical knowledge and experience with inverters is outstanding! How did you initially have the guts to open up your first inverter? My question is about diagnosing a bad inverter. How do you diagnose it before yanking it out of the car? Are there OBD2 codes (such as POAO9) that 100% indicate a bad inverter? I want to be sure before I pay for towing my car to dealership and their $300 diagnostic charge (which is refunded if problem is inverter). thanks
The codes you will typically have stored in the computer are P0A94, P324E, P0A1A, AND P3004
There is an extended warranty available for the IMP REPAIR, 20 years with no mileage limitation if you have those codes stored.
My first inverter repair took me a while because i had to read the manual page by page, but now I've done hundreds, i can do them in 2hrs in and out.
Excellent! Thank you sharing much detail. Do you happen to know if Lexus , 2015 CT200h specifically, is the same hybrid wiring as the Prius?
Yes, they are wired very similarly. I'm sure part numbers will differ, but the general hybrid system is wired the same.
This the most informative video I had watch, how do I find my 2015 Pruis inverter still under warranty, and where are you locate at?
Ask the advisor to run your VIN number, and they can tell you. Im 100 percent sure if you have a 15, then you will have the extended coverage.
@@TheYotaChannelgreat to know, how much extended warranty is?
And where are you at? I like to have you as mind and my friend's mechanic!
What a good job!
Where is the sensor temp lower in the imverter? And which is de number part the a new part? Thanks
I had a problem in DC inverter of my 2012 prius v on June 2024. All dash board light came on. I took my vehicle Toyota dealership. They replaced the part inside of DC inverter. Toyota covered all expenses including labor cost. If you are facing same problem then don’t hesitate to go Toyota Dealership. Thanks
Aoa.. sir i have prius 2011 facing same problem.. im living in gujranwala. Please guide how to resolve this issue. Thanks in advance
Can you share the codes that show for inverter repair?
Is there any way to charge this battery when it is out of the vehicle, I no longer have the vehicle but want to keep the battery charged
do you replace the inverter pump when doing this repair, and is that covered?
Hey, no, the inverter water is not replaced and is not covered under this campaign.
My 2015 prius v isn't showing any codes on the scanner, but all the lights on the dash are on including the check engine and car won't start. Just replaced the hybrid battery month ago so i know its not that. Any guesses what could it be?
Bro I live in Windsor near Detroit, I have the same issues in my 2013 prius, I have changed two times still it comes, can you fox it
Are you paying to get it fixed? Im only asking because there is an extended warranty out that will cover it 100%
What is the name of the newly installed partition?
The TSB i read said 96 months or 100,000 miles for the warranty. or 15 years if it is registered in California. I hope it is 20 years but i don't know how to find out.
If you run the VIN number at the dealership, they will be able to tell you. Overall, it's a great warranty extension.
Thank you
Nice project, it is not 10 millimeter bolts
Its 6 millimeter bolt with a 10 millimeter
Bolthead. 👍🗽🇩🇰🇺🇸
Thanks! Let me now how I can send more.
Wow, thank you so much. This is my first super chat. Feel free to send it the same way. Thank you again. 🙌
Where can I buy inverter replacement parts? Thank you❤
Toyota parts department. Toyota has an extended warranty on the parts and labor. You should check to see if yours is still covered
太棒了 請問更換全部料號
Mine just went out and when I looked up the VIN number no recalls showed up. I call Toyota and they said on their end nothing showed up and that the recall doesnt cover my 2010 prius.
It covers 2010-2015. The trouble codes have to be related to the inverter. If you email your VIN, i can take a look and see.
@@TheYotaChannel The Error code I got was P0A94 VIN: JTDKN3DU6A0225579. Thank you! :)
@@TheYotaChannel I just sent you an email with the info you asked for. Thanks again! 🙂
@@TheYotaChannel Hello, I just want to publicly say thank you for helping me out with my inverter issue. I did take it to Toyota dealer and they looked everything up and said YES it is 100% cover for 20 years. That saved me from taking the Prius to a junkyard and being out a vehicle. But of course there was other issues they found like bad barring's and a few other small issues, but figured I might as well get those fixed as well since I'll be driving it for a bit longer.
But again man, I really appreciate you taking the time to check into for me and giving me advice!
God Bless!
How to join the toyota course?
You have to be employed by Toyota and they send you to school for training
Oh i see.. video was well detailed 💯
Hi @@TheYotaChannel
I have a 2012 Toyota Prius and I got the message on the dash saying check “hybrid system.” The scanner reads code “P0A39,” but this one is not listed for the warranty program. Do you think it still worth it to take to dealership to find out if the warranty can cover the repair? Are you familiar with the repair of this code?
Thank you
How do you know you have an updated one
There is no way of telling unless you check the service history at the dealer by giving them the vin number.
thanx🙏🙏🙏
Yet…. They can’t cover the brake booster and actuator issue that is way more common 🤔
Toyota issued an extended coverage for the booster in the 2010-2015 models. The coverages expired for the 2010-2014 year models. If you have a 2015 and under 150k miles, Toyota will cover it.
@@TheYotaChannel , coverage expired March of 2023
