JL dual 8" Microsub box or Microsub+ (with built in 500 watt amp) will fit in the trunk under the convertible top. Sounds real good and you can still use your trunk.
How similar are the 2012 jeep liberty to the commander. I have to replace upper and lower rear control arms.
Thanks for watching. I am not sure about the Liberty, have not had to work on one so far. I do know that the Commander and Cherokee are the same. I am confident in saying that if you feel comfortable doing the job that I showed on the Commander that you can get the Liberty done yourself. Save that money.
So it is the same - 4 channels only
Correct
@@GreggFesto Thank you for the answer. Then will you give me answer for couple other q-s: 1) Why my Prius 3 pack voltage at some moment of brake regeneration can go up to 270 volts?(if you experience the same) Some folks say this is normal. 2) Can I perform similar test, charge/discharge, moving cells around, balancing on my battery even it is not so bad: Health test - 56% remaining life, voltage different - no more that 0.1 with most noticeable difference on 7-th block, resistance - 30 mOhm on all of them. Or do everything but charge/discharge (so I don’t have to buy expensive charger)? I Just want to prevent farther damage to the battery. Thank you
The HV battery pack will experience higher voltage during regeneration for certain which I also read is normal. In my experience the new packs do not turn the app readout "color red" as often when compared to used packs. I believe that lower capacity cells (batteries) cause this condition. You can do this refurbish on your pack and gain performance back. If you balance the batteries and then reassemble the pack in different order without refurbishing them on the charger then you will end up in same situation because you skipped the steps most important. The charger conditions the batteries closer to good health. The reason you will not have good results without using the charger is the pack batteries are assembled in series so the capacity of the pack as a whole will depend on each one of the batteries in the line.
@@GreggFesto Thank you Gregg for the suggestions. But returning back to overvoltage during regeneration for me looks like Battery Smart Module with its voltage regulator does not do good job of limiting the voltage. I have tried to find answer to this situation - can not find it.
You mention voltage regulator not doing a good job of limiting the power back to battery. Think about this - the battery is what should be absorbing the energy from regen, when battery does not have the capacity to absorb the power due to low capacitance then the regulator must find another way to disburse the power. In a new pack the batteries are strong and can absorb the power without issue. I suspect the regulator is working correctly but the batteries are starting to lose their capacity to absorb regen power which is causing the voltage to spike.
I wish I still had all of their CDs from back in the day!
Question: Hey so what if a cell/ module has inconsistent results for the discharge and charge? On one of my cells the numbers kept going down and up and down and up again, so on so forth. But it did eventually hit 5000/7500 after 20 or so cycles.. should I use this module/cell? In my mind I shouldn’t because it’ll probably still be inconsistent when it’s in the car and will give me the red triangle. But I’m no expert! Please help!
I agree with your logic on that one. Consider that battery borderline but still good. If you have the additional funds to purchase extra one then replace it but if you do not then I believe it will last long enough for you to save up some more money while driving around. I have a pack with a bunch of those borderline batteries, it comes in handy to drive on while I am rebuilding the pack that actually belongs in the car.
Hell yeah! About to order some mine 👍🏽 thank you
You gonna love them. Still shining super strong.
On my 2016 you need the parking brake set...then it works.🤯
Excellent explanation and camera work. Thanks for the video!
Thank you for watching and taking time to leave a comment. I appreciate it.
1a discharge is too weak, these cells have 30c rating, I would test it at min 5c discharge to see performance under real loads
Great idea. Glad it worked for some, didn’t work on a 14 Suburban LTZ.
I saw one comment that said parking brake might need to be set for the 2014.
Thank you sir! Extremely informative and to the point! I recently purchased a 2008 Prius with a bad battery, currently following your process (with 2 cheaper chargers) and am saving thousands reconditioning the battery myself. You're a hero!
Thank you for sharing your experience
Finally the one vid that worked!!! Subscribed!
Hey Gregg , love the video and am enjoying the process of refurbishing a 2007 Camry battery after buying the ev peak charger and learning as i go with your instructions . So far i am cycling modules in my spare battery pack so i will have good modules to replace any in the pack that is in the car when i start on that one (it is weak and needs refurbishing).In your opinion does a module cycled say 15 time and hit the 5000 mah mark last or work as well as a module that has been cycled 3 times and also hit the 5000 mah mark. My spare pack i bought has been out of a vehicle for a long time and sitting around. As well would it be beneficial to cycle a couple more times after hitting the 5000 mah mark and possibly get to say 5500mah or even higher if every cycle tends to increase or will a battery go out of balance in the vehicle and not even see a difference in the end.
Thanks for watching. Glad to hear all is going well. I have not noticed a difference in a battery that takes more cycles to reach 5000mah when compared to one that took fewer cycles. When I do have more than enough batteries to complete a pack, I select the ones that have the highest discharge ratings. If you can cycle more times and the discharge mah is still climbing then you can achieve a higher capacity battery. Pay attention to the charge mah, if it starts to decrease over multiple cycles then you have reached the limit of that battery. If you go too far the discharge value will begin to drop over multiple cycles.
Great video! Would you guys recommend a quick drain valve like a Valvomax or Fumoto?
Does the Daytime running light setting function work / function normally. I notice it uses the high beam bulb at reduced power on stock bulbs.
On some vehicles the daytime running light will flicker, there is a small inline resistor that you can get that will eliminate this. I do have flicker on mine sometimes.
Great video...got the charger fixin to diy...paid a guy on CG $500, chris out of BA, Ok. My battery lasted 30 days til Rd. Tr. appeared. he wont return calls...DrP app shows weak #11 cell
Thanks for the info on the "Full" ending message meaning the same as an END. I got my second "Full" message this morning. I am using your setup of running 3 cycles, but my problem is I can't figure out the key sequence from the FULL message to be able to see my 3 cycle DISCH and CHARGE values for the cycles completed resulting in the FULL message. If I press the BATT TYPE button as I usually do it does not not take me to the cycle values. Any ideas?
I suggest pressing the button furthest to the left on each channel. You can see this at about 6:35 in my video.
Searched for that charger. It states...Note: This charger is NOT designed for use with hybrid car batteries. Any such use will damage the charger and is not covered by warranty. Updated firmware since its release now allows this charger to support high-voltage charging.😢
Hi! Everyone. Im from LA. I have a camry 2007 and the HB is 12% state of charge. Im learning from Greg how to do this process. Im using same charger same set up couple of days ago. This is a lot of fun! Thanks Greg. Great educational videos
Whats the difference in changing the cell to 6500 and 7500?
Thank you for watching. The 7500mah CAPA is the max point that the charger will stop charging. The battery is rated at 6500mah but you set the charger to 7500mah because of the way it charges called "Delta Peak".
@@GreggFesto so, if I set it at 6500 or 7000 it won't be fully charged?
It will depend on the battery health. You can find more info on how it works by searching "Delta Peak Charging".
@@GreggFesto so, I got this on DCHG 1300. CHG 7500 mAh. On the first cycle. Should I run it 5 more to see if the discharge increases if not wat would it be the minimum discharge and charge range?
You should run cycles until your discharge value is at least 5000mah. If your discharge value does not reach 5000mah then the battery should be replaced.
This is proof of how good of a driver David Pearson was 😊
Thank so much for sort of tutorial of refurbishing a battery, car we run a fan to cooling the battery during the charging process?
Thank you for watching. No fan is required when charging.
Thanks for the battery vendor tip, will try them once I get this refurbish testing done. At time 8:56 of your CZcams video “Hybrid Battery Pack Refurbish - Step-By-Step w/ Settings - 2nd & 3rd Gen Toyota Prius - CQ3 Charger” you change from your older red CQ3 to a newer silver & blue CQ3 charger. This newer one is what I have and I am having trouble with the instructions for it. If a test ends with a flashing "FULL" and I press the BATT TYPE button, no cycle results are presented, it just return to the initial screen. What does a flashing "FULL" mean. It apparently is not the same as "CAPA' or END. The instructions that came with the charger say nothing about this. Any help appreciated.
My silver charger was purchased about 3 years before the red one. I have a video that shows comparison between them. The message "FULL" is the same as "END". Be aware of the buttons when a cycle has ended. If you press the wrong one then you will get no results. The red and silver chargers have different wording on the buttons but the button position for results is the same (I believe the far left button for each channel).
Thanks, this is great! Can you explain the process for adjusting them once they’re in? Is this all the same for a 2014 prius v?
Thanks for watching. Prius V's should all be the same or very similar. You adjust them with screws on outside edges of housing. There are videos of this on youtube. I do not currently have one.
Hey first I want to say great video. I want to do the same thing to my prius battery. So I went to order the same charger you're using and there a statement saying This charger is NOT designed for use with hybrid car batteries. Any such use will damage the charger and is not covered by warranty. Updated firmware since its release now allows this charger to support high-voltage charging. Do you see this same message and it still work for you. The purpose of me buying this charger is to do the same thing you did. I don't want to buy it and can't use it. What do you think
Thank you for watching. I have not seen this warning. I am not sure why it says this now. I suggest contacting EV-PEAK customer service for more info. Please write back and let us know what you find out.
Love it man! Thankyou!
thank
i read in a different forum that the max charge capacity should be 8500 mAh as a lot of energy is lost in charging through heat and that the delta peak wont often be reached if set below this value. I charged most of my batteries this way without issue as most didnt reach this value anyway, until a cycled a couple of brand new batteries that i was using to replace some faulty ones. i could hear some kind of hissing like air was escaping and was getting worried. do you think i've done serious damage to those brand new modules by "overcharging"?
Thank you for watching. I have been using the settings listed for years without issue. Adjusting CAPA to 8500 provides minimal benefit that I have seen and can leave room for overcharging. When running multiple cycles you can watch the "trend" of mah values on both discharge and charge to determine if the battery is good. The batteries will outgas some when cycling and I suspect this is what you experienced. The best way to know if the battery is still good would be to run cycle with my settings. If you get 5000mah or more on discharge and charge then you are good. Please write back and let me know how they do.
Hey Gregg . Thanks for all efforts you did for the new beginner like me I am a big fan of all your videos. I have a question. When I try to start . It just flashes “DLY” I don’t know what does it mean. Thanks again
Thank you for watching. DLY = Delay. It should move past this step without issue. If your charger will not move past DLY on screen then you should check settings. If settings are correct then you should make sure that your leads are ok. If you still cannot move past DLY then you will want to contact EVPeak service.
Just wanted to say 'Thank you' for your very helpful video. I was able to get my 2008 Prius back on the road. I appreciate it.
Thank you for watching and providing feedback. Glad I was able to help you.
I've finished a 3-week recon cycle on my Gen 2 Prius battery using the same charger you're using. All but 2 hit 7500 discharge capacity (those 2 made it to 7100, so still good). Problem is only 2 broke 5000 mAh on discharge. 24 are in the 4000 range (some low 4000s, some high 4000s), and 2 are at 3900. If I continue to run more cycles on these lower discharge cells, they always hit charge capacity at 7500 and then the cycle stops without ever seeing higher discharge numbers. Is it time to just rebalance and get it reinstalled? I suspect that any refurb replacement cells I get won't have a charge capacity as high as my cells. What do you recommend?
Thank you for watching. The discharge values are the ones to pay attention to. They will determine the actual "health" of your pack. Since the batteries are in series the pack will only be as strong as the lowest valued battery. This means that if you put the pack back together with batteries that have discharge value of 3900mah then the pack will only have about 56% capacity. I suggest running more cycles until you have minimum 5000mah discharge of every one of them.
@@GreggFesto Thank you. I will continue to cycle the modules. But one problem is that they continue to cap out at 7500 and the cycles just stop. Should I increase the capacity setting, or just keep manually starting new cycles on each module hoping that they'll break 5000 mAh discharge?
If the discharge value continues to rise after each cycle then I suggest to cycle again. There will be a point where the discharge value stops rising and will start to fall back off. There will be a point where the charge value will start to fall off also. If you can achieve 5000mah discharge or better I think you will be happy with the results. If you can achieve the 7500mah charge value at the same time, that's even better. please write back and let me know how your batteries do.
@@GreggFesto Hi Gregg, I finished the process. The end result was that 27 of 28 cells broke 5000 mAh discharge, and all hit 7500 mAh charge. Just one cell is giving me trouble and after 16 cycles, won't break 4300 mAh discharge, and although it broke hit 7500 on one charge, it dropped off to an average of about 6400 mAh charge. I've seen some refurb cells on eBay but they claim they're guaranteed to be at around 3.5 amp hours of capacity, and since my lone bad cell is already above that, not sure if it's worth trying. How bad is it to just leave that one underperforming cell in the pack? Thanks again for your help and feedback.
These batteries, when in the hybrid pack, are arranged in a series configuration so the battery with the least capacity will determine the pack capacity. The battery that is 4300mah discharge after 16 cycles should be replaced with one that has at least 5000mah discharge in my opinion.
Do high mileage oils really last 20,000 miles?

Great video. We have 3 gen 2 & 2 Gen 3 Prius's in family & I am the car guy. Bought 1 of the recommended chargers & may buy another per your recommendations before I start taking the batteries apart. Also have Dr. Prius app & various OBDII tools. Just one question before I start. Do you have any regen battery vendor you would recommend for purchasing modules from? Would love to hear if you do. Thanks much.
Thanks for watching. I bought 2nd charger just to speed things up a bit. If you are not pressed for time then a single unit is all you will need. On average it takes about 3 weeks per battery pack with a single charger. I have received really good batteries from vendor called AloyHybrid on eBay.
Is it any different for a 2012 prius 2?
It is extremely similar. DIY job for sure. Save that $$
@@GreggFesto I changed them still have a check engine light saying one is bad ..I cleared it too...no idea what's wronf
What does your code say is wrong? Spark plug, coil, or cylinder misfire?
@@GreggFesto says coil is misfiring in cylinder one car starting to run more and more rough....once mechanic said head gasket is bad...other says he didnt think so
It is possible one of the new coils or plugs is bad? One thing you could try is to switch the coil and plug between cylinders 4 & 1. Clear the codes. When code comes back you can read it. If it says cylinder 4 misfire then you have a bad coil or plug because the problem moved with them. If it still says cylinder 1 misfire then there is a different issue. Are you losing coolant? If yes, the head gasket could be bad. There is a kit you can get from most auto part stores that has a liquid which changes color if engine gases are detected in coolant tank. If you are not losing coolant I suggest removing the intake and checking PCV system ports. They can clog up and cause rough running. You can clean them out with intake cleaner spray and some pipe brushes. Let me know what you find.

New content coming soon Browndog. Thanks for checking in. I appreciate your support too.
Yeah - I Don't Know - I'm Thinkin' " ... a man's gotta know his limitations ... "
Ty. This was simple as heck !
Why would you only care about the minimum discharge mAh rather than the maximum charge mAh?
Thank you for watching. The discharge mah is important because it is the actual capacity of the battery and what dictates how your car will perform. The maximum charge mah is limited by the charger. Both accounted and cared for.
Hey was following your video and did the same process, but for some reason my "charge" are showing 00000 I'm doing somethings wrong?
Thanks for watching. Does this happen on more than one battery? What gauge are your jumpers? I have heard that some less expensive smaller gauge wire such as 24awg can cause issues with the process.

So do we have to hold down both the lock/unlock button on the remote or just either one will work?
Both Lock and Unlock
Is the second time I do this and I am not sure if I am doing something wrong but always all the time all the cells arrive to capacity at the first discharge and charge, it never goes to the second one, am I doing something wrong? I followed all the instructions
The charger will stop cycling once the battery reaches CAPA. If the discharge value is not 5000mah then you will need to run it again. If the charger does not reach CAPA then it will proceed to next programmed cycle.
@@GreggFesto thanks for replying, I get that but is it normal that all the cells arrives to CAPA on the first cycle?
@@GreggFesto Also another question if in the first cycle it goes over 5k is that enough or would be better if I run it two more times to get it over 6k? or is the same ? thanks
You are likely to get CAPA message first cycle if the batteries have been sitting for a while. This is why I like to run 3-5 cycles on each battery, it will tell how the battery is health wise by seeing if the discharge value increases or decreases with more cycles.
I suggest running 3 cycles at least on each battery so you can see if the values are increasing or decreasing. It will give you batter idea of the health. A value of 6000mah discharge on your batteries will certainly be better than 5000mah. Remember that your pack will only be as strong as your weakest battery. For example if you have 27 batteries with 6000mah discharge and 1 battery with 4000mah discharge then you are limiting your pack to 4000mah. This is because they are all in series configuration.
You charge them to 8.75v?
Great video I'm learning so much. Question for example on cell 20 about how long did it take you to do one cycle?
Thank you for watching. I am not sure how long it takes to do a cycle as it will depend on the health of the battery. I set the charger up and check it a couple times per day. The whole process takes 2-3 weeks usually.
08 Chevy Silverado location is different. Gas motor 5.3 model it’s located above the itbcm which is mounted towards the rear of truck above the spare tire. You will have to lower spare if u have one then remove mounting hardware to the fuel system control module and itbcm to get it out.
