After seven years, I've come to a point where I can't keep my truck running alone. Either the pack fan or the airflow sensor have failed. The pack needs to be dropped and charged up to a level where the Magna charger can take over. Is there anyone in the Los Angeles area who c...

Brian: I sat in my truck and experimented. Aside from the two temperatures that are certainly reading erroneously on your vehicle, the throttle is giving you an error. Where you see a high percentage, you ought to see the 15% and 21% (Mine are at 14% and 20%). There are 3 more...

Brian: You have a critical fault being read by the bias control module. The DTC's should be in the 030 - 040's range. Surprized nothing shows up. It should at least register in the DTC history for the drive control module. Might be your temp sensor which should read reasonably...

I think you should see the 3 accelerator pedal potentiometers changing voltage regardless of park position or not. Park signal should be an interlock on the drive enable. My best guess without taking out the tech2. Would not hurt to take your transmission position indicator sw...

Yes a senior moment. The RAV leveling is two hours I should remember that since I have watched it many times. Sometimes the balance current goes to 2 amps then back to three. Even if you figure the full 3 amp rate for two hours this is six amp hours spread over two hours. The...

Hi Ryan, Richard Hatfield has converted his S-10 to Lithium. I think there were some issues, but he was able to make some 80 mile trips with it. If I recall correctly, he used two sets of four 40 AH Thundersky cells in parallel to replace each NiMH module. The main reason for...
