    Finally finished putting our Lexus RX400H all back together today, after following your instructions to replace the rusted lower hybrid battery case with a good condition used one, and after fault checking all the battery cells etc. Followed all your instructions in this and a couple of your other videos, plus some input from a few other CZcamsrs, and saved ourselves over $5,000. Seriously. All because you took the trouble to make and post these videos of yours. We owe you guys, so look out for inbound goodies, and a huge THANK YOU for your help.

    Thank you for posting this video! I am usually not a do it yourselfer. However, I found this video helpful in me being able to replace the hybrid battery on my vehicle. My 2006 Lexus RX 400H hybrid battery failed in December 2023 at approximately 330K miles. I purchased a used one from the junkyard from a vehicle that had 150K miles. This video made it possible for me to do it myself and save a lot of money. Once again, I am usually not one to work on my own vehicle, but this video was very clear on what steps to take to complete the job. Thank you!!!

      How much did you pay for the used junkyard battery? This is very promising as I have 123k on my 2008 RX 400h and I just want to know if I should keep it for the long haul.

      I paid $734, including tax for the used hybrid battery.

    Is it okay to test the battery was installed correctly before putting all the trim and seat components on?

    • @PalmettoBatteryPros
      @PalmettoBatteryPros  Před rokem +1

      Yes, and highly recommended. I always test it before I button it back up.

      @@PalmettoBatteryPros any videos on what you have to do once the new hybrid battery is installed or should it be just ready to roll? I have a guy putting in a used battery for me and once they got it all hooked up it’s not turning the gas engine on still and is saying something about needing to be taken to a dealership to have the hybrid battery charged directly.

    • @PalmettoBatteryPros
      @PalmettoBatteryPros  Před rokem +3

      Low miles for that year, but the hybrid batteries age out too and this one is due for another battery based on year, if it hasn’t already been replaced.
