Hey Yeah I think the battery took some damage because the dome lights some times dim when turning on the rav. Also I think they dim faster when the rav is not ready on for a few hours and I left it on because I was changing and inside. I'm going to keep an eye on it and see how it holds. As...

Hey I just wanted to get more cargo space. I would guess that with that error sport mode won't be available? Will the error codes clear once you reinstall the chair or do you need a special device to clear them?

Hello Thinking on removing the passenger seat. Can I do this without getting error codes? Also, do I have to do any reprograming when I re install it? Do I have to unplug any cables like heated seats? How Will the passenger air bag behave? Will it need reprograming?

Great I have not smelled that yet. With the lead acid it ended up fuming and I got poisoned for like a week a half because I thought it was milk I spilled in the back. It sucked and I hope I did not get long term damage from it. Anyway, the agm is acting strange. I left the car in acc mode...

What does a venting AGM smell like? Lead ones smell like rotten eggs. Does it vent sulfur or hydrogen? Also how did you know it was venting? Did it make noises? I've camped out of the RAV4 so many times I think I must have already damaged it but the case doesn't look bloated. Are there any other...

So I took out the voltmeter and set it to 20 dcv after driving the rav4 ev for a few hours. I charged for 2 hrs and I checked the voltage on the battery after finishing with out turning on the car. 13.36v. Then went inside and fully ready on turned the car. Checked the voltage and it was 14.41v...

Hey there, Thanks that sounds great. I have a 12V modified synwave inverter for charging small items (175w) but it does not have any LED screen displaying anything. Actually, I have looked into to these type of 12v readers before that you can plug into your cig socket, but they seem to be full...

Hi, Been driving the Rav4 EV more often now and spending a good amount of time charging it back up.. Today I spend about 7 hours at a j1772 plug with the car on and the deep cycle botched almost died out. Couldn't turn on the car until I turned it off for a while then tried to turn it back on...

Hi Asavage, Thanks for the input. Can you elaborate on the silicate and nitrite loading? I can see where you are going with the not looking for a bargain.. however, it sounds like the zerex can be used with the RAV4 EV since it mentions it can be used with the Tesla. What do you think on that...

I was wondering if it does could we not maybe weld a light weight cargo carrier to the hooks so it is on the front of the RAV4 EV? Essentially a front facing cargo carrier? Do you guys think it would be able to hold some decent weight?

For carrying the generators https://www.harborfreight.com/750-lbs-capacity-heavy-duty-folding-cargo-carrier-62660.html not sure if they would fit this cargo carrier, but it is 750 pounds capable. A cargo carrier should be easier on your range than a small trailer. If you can fit it in the...

I had something similar but less damaging http://www.myrav4ev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2009 i think my total cost was like 12,000 i took it to a toyota dealership to get it repaired and i had statefarm. the wiring harness got a little damaged and it was fully replaced it was i think 5k...

$6.4k for this repair now I wonder how much the spline problem will cost? Does this require a motor replacement or gear box replacement? If you hit 10k that will be something! Ext Platinum Warranty is a must with this vehicle unless you are an expert at repair electric vehicles DIY. So it...

So the heater failed and it took down the cabling with it? or did it kill the converter too? or everything? Is it over 7k? as in 8k or 9k? +++?or just 7k something?

How much does it cost to replace the Gateway ECU?

My right tire is getting low on air and I did not want to go to the gas station. I pulled out the compressor that has the rav4 ev but I read the instructions and it seems it only works with the sealant bottle. So you can't run it by itself just to send air. It seems to have a max psi of 50 or...

There seems to be an influx of DU replacement threads what is going on?

I changed my cabin air filter a while back but I think I need to change it again. I recall looking for it on amazon and it was activated charcoal type. Though there are a bunch more at ebay for very very cheap in price.Not sure on quality from the ones in ebay, but I recall there were some...

Hi Miimura This looks VERY nice. I like it a lot. I have the same anderson connectors just haven't used them yet. Are you powering anything with a 12v pure sinewave inverter? I have a Xantrex prowatt sw 2000 inverter, but I haven't installed it yet because I think it would be better to just...
