Stuff breaks, especially on high mileage, older vehicles. On today's vehicles, sometimes even the dealers can't fix them. They change expensive parts until they find the problem, wasting hundreds, or even thousands of dollars. Be thankful they don't spread salt on the roads around there. Throw in some corroded wires, and you need a team of electrical engineers to determine what is wrong.
I agree with Alan Eaten about the battery. I had an 08 Rav with dead alternator. Christmas tree lights and brake system weak. Electric power steering so that was crazy too for customer who needed to try to limp it to shop. They knew better than to risk a tow. That little trunk 12V batt is KAPUT.
question about GEN2 Prius: watched your excellent video. Can weak Prius auxilary battery (say 11.5V) be put on a trickle charger connected to a power outlet to perform lenghty computer procedures/diagnistics? I need to know this for bleeding the brakes; my auxilary battery is weak. Thank you
Based on my experience, I have noticed that even if you delete the errors, the brake light and ABS warning lights can come back on again. To resolve this issue, I suggest putting the vehicle in service mode, changing the brake fluid, and bleeding it thoroughly. Additionally, using a paper clip on the OBD can help ensure that your car runs without any problems.
Is there any way to do it with maxicom MK808 I tried but it doesn’t show me that option besides code reading and live data, do I need to update or what
New glasses! Hopefully your old ones didn't break? Are those Zenni optical? America's Best makes some with good deals too. The eyeglass manufacturers are making so many durable plastic hybrid lenses lately. Hope you like them!
Hi, can techstream tell me where my brake fluid leak is coming from? It seems to be coming from somewhere around the reservoir on my wife's Lexus 460LS.
Hi, could you please tell me which Autel scanner are you using, I have got an Autel scanner but it does not have that special function where I could do the job ( linear valve offset).
@angioman I never heard back from him on the model number, however I bought the PC plug to the car and found something online that worked for me. Much cheaper route
2013 Prius changed booster and pump with used unit. Bled using Topdon will not complete linear valve calibration. It will cycle and make noises, but Codes remain. Help!
@@williamvaughn2938 , yes. I ended up removing the unit and leaving the junkyard accumulator and reusing my original to the car brake booster assembly. It programmed immediately. All codes cleared and linear offset done. However, I still noticed that the accumulator is constantly running like before. This leads me to believe that the junkyard accumulator unit is either on its way out or the original to the car booster is damaged making the junkyard accumulator continuously run. I stumbled upon an internal Toyota publication stating that the accumulator loses pressure over time and that the booster cracks internally. Thus, any junkyard model not equipped with the new booster and accumulator assembly will essentially mean you are on borrowed time. Mine works currently but buzzes every 30 seconds. I’m again on borrowed time. Thus, I’ve ordered the accumulator and booster from Toyota and will install it sometime soon. It’s the only way to permanently fix the issue. The part numbers have changed from Toyota. This typically means the parts have been updated. I paid $1300 for the new parts. Also, the new accumulator is no longer two black cylinders. The updated for the regular Prius (not C ) is now two silver cylinders. That may help if looking for updated used junkyard units. Good luck!
Hello, I really like your thorough Prius videos. Thank You! Could you advise an issue with braking? It is what I am calling delayed brake release. After you take your foot off the brake they do not release, there is a two second delay before the wheel is freely rolling. 2007 Prius, 240k, already replaced the brake booster, no significant improvement and it is the front brakes.
@@julioanthony1951 I put a new ABS pump in mind from a junkyard it took like 3 hours to follow the bleeding procedure that took a fancy computer to do the bleeding but I knew that a dealership wouldn't touch junkyard parts. But since I fixed that this car has been amazing I'm getting astounding gas mileage and I put over 7,000 mi on it in two months
I changed an actuator and Brake pump in a 2013 Prius and I cannot eliminate the C1345 code... I tried several times using techstream.... any other suggestions? Thank YOU in Advance!
@@Wizardry77 hey yes ended up replacing the abs module, and a job that was. After that did the calibration and worked. So in most cases the just by learning the linear valve would do it.
Autel is Autel and Techstream is Toyota and solely Techstream only. Any non subscription that calls itself Techstream is a hack and is not legal to be commercially sold. Autel makes software and includes the tablet or handheld interface. That being said, many devices exist in the market that does everything you need. Even keys. You just pay more for what you need to do. Still less than Techstream and no annual subscription.
It's been a bad week. Pete, I know you have more on your mind this week, but to avoid focus problems, try to check the camera monitor if you can. But I understand when you are actively trying to diagnose a problem, fixing the problem is more important than camera focus. We are here with you for the ride regardless. Would be nice to see but to hear the walkthrough is better than nothing.
It is because of the moon cycles. The new moon period just ended. And the full moon is starting to show and we all know the full moon brings out the lunatics. I had one today. The public is awful now.
I recently had new tires and an alignment check. After which the (!) l, ABS, VCS, and BRAKE lights came on and won’t clear. The tire shop’s scan tool can’t calibrate, and the dealership wants $192 to be calibrated if it can’t it’s still $192. I’d rather put that money toward a scan tool that can calibrate. What is the tool you used, or do you have any other suggestions, and maybe an appropriate cost for the tool.
Hi ur video qulaty very poor when u make it video make sure its not blaree! I dont think so ppl see ur video clearly sorry to say no good only mechanich knows coz they all ready knows 😂
🎵🎶🎵🎤 She's a maniac, maniac oh oh 🎶🎵🎶 Keep singing through this challenging week, Peter!
❤❤❤
Thank you, sir! My lights came on after a brake bleed on 2009 Lexus 460 LS. This worked to perfection!

Great video! I have a gen 2 and 3, can you advise what scan tool you recommend for things like this?

Hi. Which model of Autel tablet is that? Thanks.

This worked! I used a very similar autel scan tool. Chose linear offset in the drop tab and it passed the test!
Hi mate, could you share the Autel device model which you used?
I’d also like to know as well
What scanner do you use, please?
What kind of scanner do you use for Toyota’s ❤
What scanner are you using?
witch Autel scanner model number ,are you using ?
New glasses! Hopefully your old ones didn't break? Are those Zenni optical? America's Best makes some with good deals too. The eyeglass manufacturers are making so many durable plastic hybrid lenses lately. Hope you like them!
in my case blinking stop half the way and calibration is not done, do you think is hardware or air in the system
Thanks man it really help
Why does the VSC indicator not light up when the ignition is turned on?
Which model Autel Scanner?
What is the model of your autel????????????
Hi, can techstream tell me where my brake fluid leak is coming from? It seems to be coming from somewhere around the reservoir on my wife's Lexus 460LS.
What software can I use for this?
Which test tool you used ?
Followed this procedure but my lights remain on VSC ABS etc How do you clear them?
Should I take it to the Toyota dealer and have them do that?
Thank you for this great video.
The scanner is an Autel Scanner MaxiSys MS906BT. Is it right?
What computer model do you have
Hi
I have 2011 Auris with same problem but through the learning procedure the ABS light is not flashing to learn it.
Any idea?
Thanks
thank you so much 😊
I love your scan tool, what is the name of it
Very helpful
Hi, could you please tell me which Autel scanner are you using, I have got an Autel scanner but it does not have that special function where I could do the job ( linear valve offset).
Actually I had same issue but once I bought the update witch is 120$ year membership and end up updating all software and finally got special function
Thank you!
air conditioner has faults , its the sun sensor, dont worry about that if thats it...
Thank you for the video. What model of the Autel scanner do you have?
Dis u ever figure out what model autel to get? I need one for the same problems
@angioman I never heard back from him on the model number, however I bought the PC plug to the car and found something online that worked for me. Much cheaper route
Could you share what you used to fix that? I too have gone thru a few scanners. Thanks!

Have the same issue
How did you fix it ?
Same
May I know what is the solution? Is it related the battery?
Im having the same problem in a lexus hybrid
Mines have the same code, I’m unable to learn the valve offset. It comes up failed learning offset
I’m using a AUTEL and tech stream. Any ideas
Did you solve this issue?

Autel is not Techstream is it? That $500 device sure looks handy if it can cure a lot of these electronic problems.
