Prius (2001-03) :: 2002 - Code P3006 And Won't Start?

I just purchased a 2002 Prius from a government auction. The car had to be jump started at the auction yard. It ran for awhile and then died before I could put it on the dolly. I jumped it again, load it and towed it home. When I got home I jumped it and drove it off. I tried to charge the 12V battery on a 2 amp current, but it wouldn't charge so I replaced it with a new battery. Now the car won't start at all. Don't worry, I did not reverse polarity at anytime. Here's what is happening now....

Prius (2001-03) :: Triangle Of Death Showing On Dashboard - P3006 Code

I have a 2001 toyota prius with 130k miles on it. 4 days back the triangle of death showed up on the dash board. The car would run fine for 3-4 miles, then brake light (on the dashboard) would turn on.

Sometimes the car would run fine with the brake lights, other times it would really slow down. Turning the car off and then on again gives me another 3-4 miles before the same story repeats again.

This triangle of death used to appear earlier too(6-7 month back), stay for few hours and then magically disappear, but this time I m not so lucky.

Prius (2001-03) :: Triangle / Check Engine Light Popped On When Driving - Code P3006

I have a 2001 Prius with 210,000 miles. The inverter and traction battery were replaced last year. I started getting triangle and check engine lights about a month ago and the scan tool read p3191 p3006 p0300. The car would barely start in the mornings and the dash lights would be dim. I replaced the 12v aux battery today and all the symptoms went away. Driving home the triangle/check engine light popped on again and I stopped at Orielly's to use their scan tool. It now only reads P3006. I called a local mechanic who suggested to drive it a bit and clear the codes because the battery needed to equalize. Is this true?

Prius (2004-09) :: Code P0420 - Diagnosing O2 Voltages And Cat Temperature

I have P0420 on my 06 prius with 220K miles. I reset it and it comes back after roughly 50 miles-ish. I have freeze frame data when the code is thrown. I read live data at 2500 rpm while the car is warm, and have all the data on the video link below.

My upstream O2 voltage is 3.1-3.3V. Downstream is .2-.4V. I understand that the downstream should be steady, and the upstream should fluctuate and read something between .1V-1V.

I have also taken thermal temp gauge and measured across both cats and readings downstream seem to be only slightly higher (+50F). It should be ALOT higher shouldn't it?

Prius (2004-09) :: Code P3012 / Red Triangle But All Module Voltages Stable

2007 Prius with 112k. It's getting the red triangle and check engine with code P3012. My understanding is P3012 points to 'Battery Block 2 Becomes Weak'. Battery block 2 is the 3rd and 4th modules counting from the end where the ECU is. These two modules test out the same as the other 26 modules in this pack, ranging from 7.40 to 7.46.

I got them this low by running A/C on high with car in neutral, hoping the bad module would show up. (Neutral prevents engine from charging HV battery.)

Prius (Gen 1) :: Code P3006 Appearing After Battery Replacement

I have a 2002 primus and got the p3006 code.

Engine would Rev and got all the lights. I figured it was the battery and decided to get a Dorman replacement. I replaced the battery but turning it on I would get the p3006 code after a few seconds. No lights at that point. I would drive about 10 miles and would get all the lights and a second p3006 code. I would clear the code and it would get rid of lights and car would operate normally.

Sometimes the lights would come on and the brake light would also come on and the engine would rev. sometimes when that happened I would get code p3012.

could the battery be OK and it be some other problem? I thought p3006 was the bad battery code.

Toyota - Prius :: Warning / Check Engine Light Came On - Diagnostic Code P3006

I need to get my 2002 Toyota Prius inspected. The Warning/check engine light came on so I ran a diagnostic (OBDII) on it and came up with P3006 Fuel Air Metering Auxillary Emission controls. What does this mean? Previously codes indicating cylinder misfire came up but those cleared.

Prius (2001-03) :: P3006 And P1259 Codes But No Loss Of MPG

Check Engine light is on but car seems to be running OK (getting 40mpg). I do notice that the car seems to rely on the Gas more than the battery than it used to.

My question is, will MPG start to drop gradually until one day the Traction Battery is just dead or will the car go from running well to not running well in minutes.

My shop says it needs a battery but it's not in the budget at the moment so I need to see if I can postpone it until the new year.

2003, 145k, just bought it 3 months ago

Prius (2001-03) :: Red Triangle And DTC P3006 / Uneven SOC In HV Battery

Our 2002 just ticked over 200,000 miles and now has the dreaded triangle and DTC P3006 (uneven SOC in HV battery). It putters around, but the MFD is lit up with alarming icons. I cleared the code once, drove two miles, and turned the car off. On the way back home it came back on. We have owned it a few years, the previous owner was a mechanic who bought it at auction, replaced some of the cells and flipped it.

I can access the block voltages, but they don't point to any obvious culprit. I'm also using EngineLink with a PID list adapted from Gen 2.. so the formulas might not be appropriate. I checked both running and engine off, and both times Block 6 was slightly lower.. on the order of .02v. From what I understand, it takes .3v difference to throw the code. Of course the only real test would be under load.. so I don't know what to make of this. But, am I correct in believing that P3006 specifies a problem in block 6, or is that a general code?

The DeltaSOC is 51%. Again, I can't vouch for the math, but this seems pretty high.

Prius (Gen 1) :: Codes P3006, C1213, C1259 With Warning Lights Diagnosed

Here is my situation- back in 2014 I had a local mechanic replace my HV battery and 12V battery after the Red Triangle of Death. Well yesterday that triangle reared its ugly head again! (and cruise control stopped working) Since this mechanic has 3 year, 36,000 mile warranty on all parts and labor, I figured this should be covered. I drove my wife's car to work today, then after work drove the Prius over there to find them closed until Friday!

So I had the guys at Advanced Auto read the codes for me and got P3006, C1213, and C1259. I have done extensive reading and researching, much of it on this site on these codes, but my main question is this:

I commute about 20 miles one way, and on certain days my wife commutes 10 to 22 miles the opposite direction. There are 3 days we go opposite ways this week, and at least one that is completely unmanageable without 2 cars.

Prius (Gen 1) :: Codes P3006 And P3000 Displaying And Indicating Faults In Main Battery

I have a 2001 Prius with about 110K which I have owned since new. It displayed the hybrid warning light (as well as check engine) 2 weeks ago and I took the car in to the local dealer.. After a little muddling around they came up with codes indicating that the computer for the battery was going. I purchased that Part Number: 8989047030 Part Description: electrical, battery, computer H.V. SUPPLY. and the dealer installed that part a couple of days ago.

Now the following codes (and only these codes according to the dealer) are displaying and indicating faults in the main battery: P3006 and P3000.

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Creaking Noise In Pedal And The Brakes Don't Seem As Good

So for the last month when I hit the brake pedal I've been getting a creaking noise in the pedal and the brakes don't seem as good. Within the last 6 months I've replaced the rotors, calipers and pads on the front and back. Starting last week when driving between 0-40 mph the ABS has started to engage on its own without even touching the brake pedal. So I've pulled the 2 ABS fuses and I no longer have the creaking noise when hitting the pedal and of course without the ABS its no longer engaging on its own. I've checked both the tone rings in the front and both of them are fine. I also now have a cel with code 0501 and I'm guessing that is because the ABS is currently disconnected. Is it safe to assume that the ABS Pump also known as the hydraulic electronic control unit has gone bad and needs to be replaced?

Prius V (Audio/Electronics) :: XM / Sirius Service Not Sound Good

I've tried several times to listen to the XM/Sirius service without trying to cringe, but it's darn near impossible. It feels like I'm listening to an MP3 with a 64k bitrate. Is this normal?

The bass is fine, the highs are ok, but the midrange just sounds horrible. How to fix?

Prius (2001-03) :: Code P3125 - Bad Inverter

I bought an 01 Prius with 148k miles. It had code P3125 which mean bad inverter. I replaced the inverter with one from a junk yard with 81k miles. As soon as I was done the car started right up, and I didnt get electrocuted!

Right after the car started I got codes P3115 P3001 and P 3191. I cleared them out and turned off the car for a min.

When I started the car again I got codes P3030 and P3001.

This car has an extensive service history, It has a new Cat and exhaust, a new accessory and HV traction battery that are less than 8 months old. Crank position sensor is new. fuel tank is new.

What could be causing the P3030 and the P3001?

Prius (2001-03) :: Whole Dash Lit Up - Code P3130

On my way home in stop and go traffic the whole dash lit up with about 4 miles to go. Car was running as normal so I immediately thought inverter pump so got home and checked for circulation and there was good circulation. Pulled code with my obdII scanner and code P3130 came up. Cleared codes to restart and check circulation of fluid to verify and there was NO CIRCULATION. So, went and ordered the Toyota part #G9020-47022. Is there something else I should check before just changing the pump like a relay or electrical? Is there another place to get the coolant as the dealer has it at $32 gallon which is crazy. Then, if I do end up changing out the pump which I am almost sure I will have to which is a good way to burp the system as I have read this can be an issue. Does all the fluid (parts guy says two gallons) need to be changed out or just what spills out.
