Prius (2004-09) :: 2005 - P3019 Along With P0A80 Pulled Over
I've a 2005 Prius with ~193,000 miles. It recently started throwing codes P3019 (Battery Block 9 becomes weak) and P0A80 (Replace Hybrid Battery). Codes were pulled with a laptop running Techstream and a mini-VCI cable.
Figuring I had some time, cleared the codes and only drove the Prius for short trips. At first things were OK, but of course the codes reset after a few days, and pretty soon they were permanent. And the car had very little power, battery fan running on high.
Then when slowly accelerating from a traffic light (there is no rapid acceleration in a gimpy Prius), there was a "BANG" noise, really loud. It sounded like someone tossed an M-80 at the car. Pulled over, didn't see any damage, though there was a strong "fireworks" smell like gunpowder outside the car. Started the car, it fired up fine, drove it home.
After a couple more weeks the car refused to start, wouldn't go into "Ready" mode. So finally I took the interior apart and opened up the battery case. Here is what I found (pic attached).
Moral of story - don't drive too far when you get the P0A80.
Prius (2004-09) :: Error Codes P1121 And P3000 - Not Enough Coolant
So I received the P1121 and took it to the dealer. They told me I also had a P3000. I called another dealer and they said the P3000 could be caused by the P1121 not giving it enough coolant. So I brought it back to the house, bought the valve listed in the forums, and I spent all day changing that + the coolant. I drained the coolant and between the reservoir and the radiator cap itself I refilled about 4 QT, and I saw that my inverter coolant was just below the low line, so I filled it up to the full line. Afterwards, I tried to get the coolant to flow, and it seems like I won't flow. The check engine light immediately came back on and the car said, "Problem." So I immediately shut it off and let it set for a few days. How do I get it so that the coolant starts flowing again. I haven't seen any of the levels move whatsoever on the radiator.

I recently replaced my engine water pump at 164,000 miles on my 2007 Prius, the car sat for 3 weeks while waiting to gather needed parts, i.e., water pump, coolant and Airlift system for adding coolant fluid. After installing the new water pump the car ran rough for 5-10 minutes upon initial crank (parked for 3-weeks). I took a 20 minute test drive around the neighborhood that evening, outside temperature around 65 degrees F, and car ran fine. SOC looked ok, bars moving between Blue and Green, everything appeared normal.
The next morning, I backed out of my driveway and the Red Triangle of Death appeared on the dash so I parked the car.
That evening I hooked up OBDII ELM327 scanner using Engine Link and picked up 2 separate P0A80 error codes, 1 of them was pending. I disconnected the Aux battery for 3-5 mins to clear the error's, Red Triangle of Death was cleared, then drove the Prius for 20 minutes with no errors or alarms. SOC seemed to be normal. OBDII ELM327 scanner showed the HV batteries were charging at same level, 16.8V and Aux battery was registering at 14.0 Volts.
The next morning, after 20 minutes of driving the Red Triangle of Death appeared, and shortly after I experienced loss of power, with sporadic engine idle and interior traction battery fan was on. Luckily I had made it to work and was able to pull into a vacant parking lot.
I did notice that around the time the Red Triangle of death came on this morning the SOC dropped quickly to 1 Purple bar and was slow to charge then shortly after came the loss of power and sporadic engine idle followed by interior battery fan.

Prius (2004-09) :: HV Error Code P0A80
My car has been fine with no changes besides tires last week, its a 2006 Prius and yesterday I got lights on my dash, went to auto zone for a read out and got an HV error code. I was wondering what is the most affordable route for my car to get repaired. I don't notice any mpg differences and everything still charges and recharges as if the errors don't exist.

Bunch of warning lights appeared and the dealer said it's code P0a80 and they recommend replacing the battery. I'd like to try to fix this myself and would like to hear your thoughts...
Plan is to check the traction battery for corrosion and use a voltmeter to test the cells and replace if needed. Prius 2004, 158,000.

Prius (2004-09) :: Codes P0A80 And P3023 - Hybrid Battery Replacement?
I turned on my car this morning to find myself faced with a variety of colored lights, including a little red car on a black bar on my MFD. Drove straight to the dealer and received word that the car was throwing codes P0A80 and P3023 and they recommend replacing the hybrid battery. I have a 2006, have done all the recommended maintenance at the dealer and it has about 133,000 miles on it.

I got the transmission p lock mechanism error. following the advice of the multiple threads, I removed and replaced the old battery after testing it. I drove about 40 miles and the triangle came back with the vsc and yellow exclamation highlighted too. The cruise control quit working but I was able to get it to the dealership and get a reading. There were two codes: p3102-581 and c2301 -40 and 50. the dealer wants to keep it all day to "dig into it". This is on a 2006 prius.

I'm rebuilding the traction battery on my 2006 Gen II Prius. When completed, I'd like to erase any "error codes" that should be erased (I don't even know where these might be), and turn off the red triangle of death, the VSC light, the (!) idiot light, the engine check light and the maintenance required light.

View 3 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: 2006 - P0a80, C1310 Keeps Coming After HV Replaced
I have a 2006 Prius, It has 165k miles. Recently it gave me a code to replace hybrid battery pack, I read this code with my scanner from HF. I have changed out a battery pack with replacing the bad modules before so I am not a bigger with the system. I took out the pack and checked and it seemed like all the modules are in the 7.8 range. This was confusing since the code reader was saying to replace the battery pack. I put it all back in the car and tested it again and got the same results. It seems like the HV system is not being recharged any longer. It seemed odd, normally when I remove my foot from the gas the system shows the car regenerating power.. Now when I step on the brakes I only see that. The system does charge but randomly it will drop down where there are 1 to 2 bars left and then charge back up again.
P0a80
C1310 malfunction in HV system (when i read about this people say this is a ghost code that comes up from the battery pack.. but maybe not in my case.
Prius (2004-09) :: 2006 With 160k - Red Triangle / Repeated P0A80
A couple months ago, my car suddenly got the red triangle. The dealership said that I needed a new battery, and eventually a new water pump. I couldn't afford $4500 as I bought the car just 9 months earlier and am making payments on the car.
I found a guy that was to "recondition" the battery, which set me back about $1200+. After getting it back, the car has been making a rattle sound in the engine bay when under acceleration (it sounds like a loose screw, but I don't know).
After about a month, I got the red triangle again. The car's performance deteriorates, the state of charge fluctuates a lot more. One minute it is green then literally a minute later it is purple then green again. The guy that reconditioned my hv battery said all the cells are good but for some reason became unbalanced, so he put it on the grid charger and rebalanced it (I believe it was on there for about 24 hours).
2-3 weeks later, it happens again. Same thing, the guy says it is unbalanced again and stuck it on the grid charger (because of time constraints, it was only on the grid for about 5 hours).
Then again 2 weeks later it repeats itself. A couple days before it happened, I tried out the elm327 adapter, custom pids, and torque app. Before the triangle came on, the delta state of charge got to about 0.9% and was charging up to just about 90% and down to just below 39%. Same thing though, from high to low in a matter of less than a minute. Same code P0A80. Sitting on the driveway, all 14 modules would be consistently within .2 volts. But when the car started acting up, I saw a voltage difference of about 3 volts between highest and lowest modules. The repair guy said the same thing again. The cells are good but got unbalanced again. This time he recommended for me to leave the car for the weekend so it can sit on the grid charger for a minimum of 24 hours, which I did. I picked it up yesterday and it's driving fine right now.
He is also recommending that I buy a grid charger and charge the battery every couple weeks to avoid these problems. I mean, how do I know if he actually reconditioned the battery, or has just been resetting the fault code and grid charging the battery? Btw, I did the auxiliary battery test and it was perfect. I don't know when the battery was last replaced but I believe with how strong it is, that is was done sometime recently before purchasing the car late last year.
Prius (Gen 1) :: 2011 Getting Triangle And Main Battery Error On MFD / P3030 / P3000
2001 Prius
I was able to pull codes this evening ( no subcodes).
The codes are as follows:
P3000, Battery Control System Malfunction
P3030, Battery Voltage Detective Line Snapped
Will the P3030 cause a P3000 to pop up since it appears I have one of the 19 voltage detect lines corroded or broken?
Once I fix this issue, is there a chance that the P3000 will disappear?
I was just getting the triangle and the Main Battery error on the MFD up until yesterday. Yesterday, the ! with the car came on (Hybrid system) on the MFD. I did not check any codes until today. Car will currently not start at all.
Aux battery voltage is confirmed to be 12.3 volts via the MFD in the diagnostic mode so it's good to go.
No one around has a scan tool that will also pull the subcodes.
Prius (Gen 1) :: 2003 Died When Coming To A Stop - P3000 And P3009 Codes
I am working on a 2003 Prius with 120k. It died when the owner was coming to a stop. He had it towed to the dealer who told him it needed an inverter and quoted $4600 to replace it. I replaced the inverter with a used unit from a wrecked car. After clearing the codes the car starts and runs but after a few minutes the triangle of death comes back and codes P3000 and P3009 are set.
Battery voltages are as follows.
Where the best place to start diagnosing the leak is ?

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.

Prius (2004-09) :: ABS And Brake Light Came On - No Error Codes
I have a 2005 Toyota Prius with about 150K miles on it. After work one night i hit a pothole and my ABS and BRAKE lights came on. I took it to a garage and they could t find anything wrong with it so they reset the light. It came back on about a week later (no potholdes this time) and i took it back. They hooked it up again this time it said there was an issue with the computer coding. So i took it to a Toyota dealership. They hooked it up to all their scanners and could find nothing wrong with my vehicle. They recalibrated the sensor and the light went off. Now a week later it is back on again. Brakes work fine and we get no error codes.
