- A No Nonsense Prius Tutorial For People Who Like Efficiency.
To put your Toyota Prius Hybrid into maintenance mode, insert the key and press the Power button two times to put your Prius into Ready Mode.
Press the gas pedal to the floor two times, then press and hold the brake while you shift your car into Neutral.
Release the brake pedal and press the gas pedal to the floor two more times, then press and hold the brake while you shift your car back into Park.
Release the brake pedal and press the gas pedal to the floor two final times. You’ll see the word “Problem” appear at the top of the display.
Press and hold the brake, then press the Power button one final time to enter Maintenance Mode. A red car icon with an exclamation mark will appear in the top left of the display to signify that your Prius is in Maintenance Mode.
In Maintenance Mode, the gas motor in your Prius will run continuously so you can do things like bring the engine up to temperature for bleeding or burping air bubbles from the coolant system.

I’ll get a Prius just so I can use the knowledge learned in this video
Too kind! I have a few more of these to grind through cause I really think the longer ones on doing the Prius hybrid inverter coolant etc will be some of the best on TH-cam for the topic, but I’ll sprinkle in some drift vids too as I get through my backlog of footage 😉
I don't have I Prius I just like your videos 🤷♂️✌
Thanks, Paul! I had to do the 120K maintenance on one of our daily drivers, so I figured I’d make a library of content about it. I’ll have a few Prius maintenance vids coming out but I may not even set them to notify my subscribers cause they’re useful car vids but not terribly relevant to my usual motorsports content 😅
@@KameTrick yeah it's a good idea ✌
Mate this channel is awesome, love the tips mate!
Thanks, I appreciate the support of my boring normal car content hahaha...more drifting soonish, just have to wrap a few more maintenance vids!
@@KameTrick can't wait for the drift videos mate! Keep up the channel, love it. One of my favorite channel currently
Hey man thanks for the tutorial. Worked on the first attempt. Just did the spark plugs and topped off the engine oil. 😅
Nice! I have a tutorial on spark plug replacement that I’ve filmed but haven’t edited yet 😅 🤦🏻♂️
Please can you post it, it Would help a lot 😊@@KameTrick
Beautiful simple straight to the point and successful thanks
Thanks! I use this mode to power the interver which I use to carpet clean my interior
Thanks! I can’t believe this exists and I never knew! I was hoping to charge my battery while parked, but it stops charging once hit hits half full. Either way, I just replaced my coolant pump and will see if I get more bubbles out after doing this.
Floor both the gas and brake pedal simultaneously. Should charge to %100 within 60-90 seconds. I can't believe it's a real thing.
Great information thanks 👍🏼
Can I use this to fully charge the battery?
This one works for my 2nd gen Prius
Maybe you have some advice
I just bought four new tires and four new sensors. I installed the sensors and the tires.
The tire light is still on.
I tried programming each sensor individually.
I tried programming the sensors as a set.
I tried copying the old sensors and applying the program or ID to the new sensors and unfortunately only two of them work.
I tried manually entering the ID to each sensor and the light is still on.
Occasionally it goes off for about a minute and then comes back on again.
Please advise.
PS these sensors are programmable and reprogrammable and have worked on many other cars with no issues which is why I chose these.
Will my prius show the little car with the exclamation point on the dash? I have an aftermarket screen that doesnt show me any car stuff.
Thank you it’s helps me a lot
Clear and to the point. Thank you.
You have to press power 2 times with brake Not engaged. This is technically not "ready" mode as the video says. Confusing when he said ready mode.
can you help me my tayota prius 2007 year write on displey “ Cannot change to EV mode now” and make triple short signal what problem how i can correct it?
Wish I had seen this before I did an engine flush. I left it in highest ac setting but when I came back 10 minutes later it was off. Probably didn’t do the greatest flush. Oh well know now!
a) my prius doesn't come with a key slot.
b) With all the touchscreen tech, they could not have come up with a simpler way to put the car in maintenance mode?
It seems like if your Prius doesn’t have a key slot, just having the key in the cabin with you achieves the same result.
I hear you on the other thing, it’s like they’re trying to make it just hard enough that everyone takes their car to the dealer and pays ridiculous markups to get even basic and easy maintenance done 🤔
Thanks. This also worked on a 2012 Toyota Prius. The 2010-2015 model years. Yhwshwa bless.
Is it common for a 2015 check engine (yellow) light, hybrid system warning light, VSC system light, and brake system warning light to come on all at once? I have a 2015 I bought when new, Prius V 117,000 miles that I keep maintained.Then all a sudden BOOM 😢 Lights go on. I noticed when I pressed the auto button the system was not showing any charging to the hybrid battery.
Any ideas? I'd appreciate it.
I had just had the front strut with spring replaced and front end alignment done.
Thank you for sharing:)
Benimde ayni problemim var yapiyorum yaptigin gibi bakim moduna aliyorum ama start a bastigimda butun elektirikler gidiyor.
Pressing the start, button, twice with my key, does not put my car in ready mode
I’m a mechanic and having to do this makes me wanna quit 😭
If something that simple makes you want to quit then you probably should
@@TacoSauce_97 if something as simple as turning your car on and off for an oil change is made this difficult, maybe auto manufacturers should rethink designs. I was the only one who know how to do this out of everyone there. It’s stupid.
@@malibu4946this isn’t for an oil change brainiac, it’s for coolant services, why in the world would you need this for oil bro, every single hybrid engines have to do this for coolant burping
Keep up with technology or get out. Cars have been getting more complicated for the last 20 yrs and it's getting worse. You have no idea how easy you have it now. When I came in this industry tons of guys were bitching about OBD 1 coming into the market. You got it easy kid.
I did it and got 5 star police
I did everything in the sequence to get it to the red car ! icon. Lifting the brake and pressing the power button merely turned it back off.
You must have given it an extra push…once you get the red car icon you’re good
Tried twice with the same result. I'm only pushing the power one final time and it turns off instead of the engine kicking on. I'm going to try to clear some codes paper clip obd style and see if that helps.
@@brianchilds5101 I understand that you need to keep brake pressed as in normal start during the final press of power button
@@KameTrick I've got a sledge hammer if you need to borrow it......"car bash" anyone???
Is it possible to bleed the brakes in this mode?
I’m not sure, haven’t had to bleed the brakes on this car yet. There are a ton of YT Tutorials on how to bleed Prius brakes, so I suggest you find someone else who has done it and follow along with their process 🫡 Best of luck!
OMGosh, what a HASSLE!!! Thanks for letting me know that I NEVER want to own one of these electronic tinker toys!!!! HECK NO!!!
It just dies after a second in maintenance mode 😢
My Prius randomly says the word problem. What does that mean what could that be ?
Hmm…if it’s doing that without you putting the maintenance mode combination in, there’s probably something legitimately wrong, whether it’s a loose connector, bad ground, dying sensor, or something more severe.
I’d take it by an auto one or dealer and ask them to check the engine codes for you, see what comes up. Autozone type places will do it for free…no idea if dealers do.
If it’s when you make turns it’s due to low oil
@@Chachh_ thank you
@@KameTrick thank you
My prius did that and it ended up being the ecm.. ecm was blown bc the o2 sensor was wired improperly and sending power to the ecm
Are you able to drive in this mode?
The service manual for the car says not to drive around in maintenance mode (unless it’s necessary for diagnostic purposes but don’t just cruise around that way)
For what?

What fucking year
First and second gen, which can be learned via a Google search ✌🏻
