  • A Toyota Master Diagnostic Technician shows you how to replace the Hybrid Battery Fan Filter which will Prolong the life of your hybrid battery.
    I say this in every hybrid video I make. This is the most important maintenance item on your Toyota Hybrid. Keep this filter clean and clear and you should have no issues making your Toyota Hybrid battery last a very long time.
    2 Possible filter part numbers for this model Prius. Around late 2012-2015 Toyota installed a filter from the Factory. The part no. for that filter is G92DH-47060 I don't recommend this filter as it's hard to install and clean. I recommend you remove it and install G92DH-47010 which is the other filter that fits all models from 2010-2015
    This video applies to 3rd Generation Prius 2010 2011 2013 2014 2015

    Just 3 days ago, I came across your video about changing oil every 5k and not the 10k. So I subscribed to your channel. Then I found this video and ordered a filter and couldn't believe, how dirty the original filter was. A simple $25 filter just saved me thousands. Thank you for this video!

Now I need to focus on getting that fan cleaned since it’s probably very clogged up. Thank you so much! Your videos are a major help and has saved me lots of $$$.

    Thanks! You saved me lots of time. I was going to take the seat out. I just pulled the cover up and leaned it over as you suggested. I did not take the original filter out. The hose to my regular vacuum was to big to fit in. I rigid a narrow wand of about 1 inch X 1/2 inch X 10 inches long. As with all such projects, duct tape may come in handy. I vacuumed it clean and snapped the cover back. I can do this in less than 10 minutes in the future. I love all your videos.

    Thanks very much for this video! When driving home just now, I got a message saying the battery cooling performance was low. I pulled out this filter, to find it was quite thoroughly clogged. After changing it, the message has not cleared. I am going to take it for one or two more drives, to see if it eventually goes away on its own. I even tried using the method for clearing the maintenance messages, which had worked before when I got a message about the hybrid system (after the engine air filter compartment was not closed properly) , and it worked then.

    Having viewed your excellent video I ordered the external filter. My car is a 2013 Plug-in Prius ( UK Spec) the car is low mileage 30k miles. Removal of trim was dead easy following your instructions. Surprise, surprise there was no filter in position. The plenum duct was exceedingly clean, spotless, the rear seats have never been used ,I assume the fans must be relatively clean too. So easily replaced trim and snapped in new filter. The whole exercise took less than 5 minutes. - Many thanks for your videos. !

    For 2015 Prius V reach under rear passenger side seat with a vacuum cleaner hose and vacuum any debris from screen. Your done. Don't let things accumulate under the seat that might block fan intake. I discovered this after following the directions from another video that instructed the screen be removed and cleaned. That was much more difficult than was necessary.

Cheaper than I saw it for on eBay. Thanks for the info. I have no idea if mine has a filter but I guess I'll find out when I get around to checking out the fan. Car has 100k, but I nor previous owner had any pets. We'll see. Edit: No real surprise but the factor filter was filthy!

    First, thank you for your excellent content! I am now a new subscriber having just purchased a used 2015 Prius 2, and I am looking forward to watching more of your videos.
    I plan to check this filter very soon and will be getting the outside clip-on as you recommended. I also plan on visually inspecting the fan motor for cleanliness. My question is once I have gone to the trouble of getting to and possibly removing the fan, would it be wise to just replace the fan? Doesn't fan performance degrade over time? The car is now 7 years old with 90,000 miles. How reliable are the fans and would this be a smart thing to do or would I just be wasting money?

Being a 76 year old widow, it means a lot to have someone to turn to that won't steer me wrong.(no pun intended). I'm going to get your recommended filter today if possible. Could you please give me your opinion on the little device being advertised as a trouble-shooter that's called FIXD?
