    Brilliant guide. So many people replace the full battery pack on their Prius' when it's not needed.

    Thanks on the clear video unlike most others. But I would recommend using a DC charger and to discharge each cells. Typically the HV batteries don't fail until >=2 cells start to die (from what I gathered). Plus then you can balance load the cells and make it stable (rebuild lasts longer).

    Hint for removing the cells. Once you have the pack on your workbench, before you remove the tan end-cap and after you're disconnected all the leads (the orange side attachment deal) turn it up on it's end cap and remove the 8mm/phillips on the bottom while the end-cap is still on. That way you can get to all the bolts underneath easily w/o risking dropping any cells b/c the end-cap keeps them all in place. On my battery, cells (from the connection end) 12 and 16 were bad so I just unbolted cells 12-28, laid the pack back down and then took off the end-cap.

    • @wadepatterson6578
      @wadepatterson6578 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      the big question is how do you reattach the compression plate to compress the sticks enough so that you can turn the pack on end and re-attach the 8mm bolts to the bottom of the individual sticks?

    • @nc3826

    Ah, a good point at 12:50. Compress the battery so the holes on the bottom line up. Excellent video. Thank you. (edit, 3:20) Did you know that the compression plate is on facing the wrong way? The bottom tension bolts can't tighten that way unless you modify the plastic tabs coming off of the bottom of the plate. Att to viewers.

    Isn't it better to do a load test of the actual cell? Since some cells can measure the correct voltage but have weak power and drop to 6 volts more rapidly than others.

    • @carpenterfamily6198
      @carpenterfamily6198 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Mike T I think he means measuring a battery when it is floating no-load doesn’t give a valid measurement. Because even a weak battery may measure good in that case. But if you put an electric load on the battery ( give it some work to do ) by attaching a light bulb - then the battery voltage measured is valid / useful.

    • @DrMuhammadShakir310
      @DrMuhammadShakir310 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      For how long you suggest to put a 12 volts bulb for checking the battery?
      I started the procedure and giving 6 minutes to each cell with reading before after and again after six minutes. Just want to know what if I connect three 12 volts bulb in parallel in order to save time?

    • @carpenterfamily6198
      @carpenterfamily6198 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dr Shakir, I don’t know the Prius battery specifically to give an exact answer. But I will say, in general, that the more current is drawn then the heavier the load placed on the battery. Yes the load would be increased with more bulbs in parallel. It would also be increased if the wattage of the bulb where higher but it’s voltage were the same ( Watts = Volts * Current ). Having said all that, I think your current method is fine because the voltage measured is not a float voltage because you have a load attached. How do the voltage readings compare between the first and second readings? ( Also no need to keep a heavy load on the battery for too long - as doings so could be stressful to the battery. )

      The battery cells have been separated. no need to do a load test. unlike the batteries which have only a positive terminal and a negative terminal, these are cells that cannot be tested separately. thats where you do a load test on a battery. you cannot do a load test within a cell. A cell that cannot carry a load up to its required voltage is deemed a bad cell.

(but better to keep the original part as long as possible.:))...as long as a battery pack is relativity well balanced it wasteful to throw away cells with plenty of life...and it worth a trying to bring back cells with voltage drop back to life too as back up when the next cell fails...

    Hi Iman
    Did you have to balance the units? How is your battery performing now? Did you have any problem since you have changed the cell? My gen2 battery didn’t show the dead signs yet, but time to time suddenly battery level drops fron 6/bar 3 bar and takes ages to recharge. is this a sign of nearly dead battery? Should I make attempt to replace the cell? Or should I wait? Any suggestions please. Thanks

      I know just enough to be dangerous, What u described is most likely due to 1 or more of the cells being out of balance ie starting to go bad and causing more resistance. Replacing bad cells will help the other cells last longer since they will to be easier to balance. And even be more efficient since the BMS has to drain off energy to keep cells in balance when cells r dying. But it not easy, so its up u to determine when it worth the effort. And changing each cell individually is most effective for an older battery pack since BMS r never perfect, Hope this helped more than just being confusing,

    Thanks super helpful! What about the one that measured 5? Was that one bad or just not fully charged and how did you know??

    • @ibcoull
      @ibcoull 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      He mis-spoke on the first cell measured saying 5.5 volts when the meter read 7.5 volts. He corrected himself a few seconds later saying 7.5.

      If that sale is rendering 5 volts I'd say that thing's done it's probably got a bad sale within that module which is 1/2 volt so for 25 bucks and they ship it to your house I just replace it

    How long does a normal person need to take battery out and test all cells and replace the bad one and put back into car and be able to drive? 1 hour, 3, 5,8?

      Normal people don’t disassemble Prius batteries and repair them. 👍 I would think you need to disassemble car enough to get battery out, determine number of bad cells, order cells, repair battery, and reassemble. That is 4 half days for me the first time and half that the second time.

    How many amps per hour will one cell deliver? Or rather what's its usable capacity of a single cell?

    What should be the lowest voltage each cell should read to determine if they are good?

  • @david149311
    @david149311 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Nice video :) Can i have a question? Don't we need to balance the whole battery pack? As i know we need to, because if the individual cells are not on the same charge levels, some cells could get over/undercharged.
    Sorry for my bad English!

    • @imanmosleh
      @imanmosleh  7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      That's a good question. Actually, you need to buy a used battery cell b/c the new one always has higher charge level but the used one is in the same charge level. Also, make sure to test all the charge levels to make sure they are almost the same.
      Good luck!

    • @imanmosleh
      @imanmosleh  7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      This problem mostly occurs when you have one or two bad cells. Basically, you need to check all the cells to make sure that all of them are in the same voltage level. Just like the steps that I showed you in this video

      Just take the battery 🔋 out and put it back. Do I have to do anything with software?

  • @alexrb7056

    Do I have to charge all the cells before I put the battery pack back ?

    • @imanmosleh
      @imanmosleh  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not necessarily. Once you plugged in, it will be charged while your car is on.

    question if the one cell go bad is there chances of other cells goes bad too soon or not to worry?
