      We have had S400 come from dealerships and their diagnosis was completely incorrect. Most shops and dealers don't work on S400 very often because there were not many of these cars made. We have had S400 shipped from California to Maryland for diagnosis so that should give you an idea of what is going on. If you need hell just send us an email to support @youcanic

    This will probably be silly question, but is towing a S400 hybrid by tow dolley a bad idea or does it need a flat bed? I had this hybrid broke down since 2019 due to a bad charging system. I have to go pick it up at the mechanic that's been sitting. Apparently it will drive and charge long as it's in motion, but if idle more than about 20 min it will drain itself because it wont charge. Original the problem was it just stop starting bit they must of fixed that but not the charging part of it.

    I have a 2010 s400 replace the Power Control Module with a Remanufactured one. Now the car starts but it takes about 10 to 15 seconds to star and the Battery Malfunction indicator . The ECO STAR/ STOP is not working and the "READY" indicador is yellow. Please tell me what I can do because the car is running and supposedly indicating good hybrid battery charge

      Rent or buy the YOUCANIC scanner and we can diagnose it remotely. It's impossible to know without reading the codes and looking at live data from the battery management system. It's just there are many things that can be wrong with these cars.

    What scanner are you using

  • @YOUCANIC
    @YOUCANIC  3 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    If anyone is having issues with their hybrid, please "contact the YOUCANIC" team (Google it). We can help you troubleshoot the problem FREE of charge as long as you can send us the codes. We need the codes from these modules (Engine ECU, DC/DC converter, BMS, Power Electronic Module). Once we have the codes, we can tell you if you have a bad power electronic module, hybrid battery or both. If your vehicle is at the dealership, ask them for the list of codes and send them to us. If you want to ship the car to Baltimore, we can repair it at a fraction of the dealer cost. Shipping usually run $0.9 per mile, so calculate miles between your location and zip code 21237.
    If you have the YOUCANIC scanner which is available for sale and rent on our website, we can remotely diagnose your S400 while it sits on your driveway. No need to two the car anywhere. Rental cost for the scanner alone is less than what you will pay to tow car to the dealer.

    Thanks, this is a very informative video. After getting a Hybrid Inverter replacement from China my car started just once and then got the following message: "0C7800 the precharging time of the high voltage on-board electrical system is too long". According to the auto garage it's the inverted from China. According to the supplier from China it's something else. Do you have a clue? Paying for your advice is no problem. Thanks!

      Since 2019 my 2010 was at a a mechanic shop and they tried everything they could but failed. Finally I'm able to get it back. Apparently I will be able to drive but not idle for more than 30 min because the battery can charge thru driving and braking. I'm pretty mechanical. I'd hate to get rid of the car if you guys have a fix I can try to make it work. What would you recommend

    Hi, I am in Atlanta and own a 2011 S400. I have had 2 issues fixed under warranty with the AC going out. And it is currently out again. The car always started, starts now and has never not started or cut off. I have had no other problems with the car. When I take it to Carmax (they warrantied it) I never feel like I get the true story but the last time they told me they replaced the compressor and the high voltage cable. Is there anything I could check? I work on Elevators and my other cars but have never messed with this because its under warranty but I'm frustrated!
