    Coolant Delete

    I can tell you that bright blue coolant coming from the inverter isn't the norm. It's typically a brown/green sludge from copper and iron corrosion. In my option this was either staged to make the point or had a severe, immediate flood, the latter of which is very rare. Plus, if that control...

    bad battery repair

    We were talking or someone referred you to me because I've herd about this. I'm in Surprise, and we're the ones who pioneered cell level repairs - before Gruber. We regularly repair MS batteries with good results and can do the RAV4 also. Charger repairs too.

    Wet Speed Sensor and what it means to me?

    Condensation means coolant is past the first bearing and water is evaporating out of the coolant. I.e. water by the stator. If you want to DIY it, pull it apart and check the bearings and gears. We can sell you individual parts if you can't find them. At a minimum you need the seal (or...

    RAV for sale - Orange County

    Isolation issues are easy for us. We had this S ldu come in back in June. Basically 0 ohm resistance, coolant sludge in the stator and running out of the inverter side. Stator Isolation alone was 180k. When done stator was over 100M ohm. Needed 1 inverter phase, control board, wiring...

    Another DOA Rav, time to troubleshoot- seems OBC fuses are fine ;-(

    I'm still undecided on non Tesla deletes. Tesla can definitely reprogram for heat soak. The rotors get very hot. Probably not an issue for the Rav4.

    Links not working for me at the moment. An epoxy coat doesn't mean rewound. Show me the welds that had to be redone. The iron core is larger than the aluminum end rings. There is no getting it out w/o cutting and rewelding quite a bit of stuff.

    Feel free to PM me or look up Hybrid ReVolt. I just joined due to Tony's request (EVFIXME) so I cannot do PM yet. We do whatever is needed. You can send the stator half only or the whole car. The more you send, the more we can check and fix, but obviously a stator only repair will be cheaper.

    I hate to burst your bubble, but no one rewinds these stators. You need to cut multiple welds to get it out. You first need to remove the outer sheet that's wrapped around the inner aluminum coolant channels, only then can you cut the end off and try to press it out. I've got hundreds of S...

    I can't get into the specifics, but we found a solution that dissolves the crystallized coolant without affecting the stator potting material nor the wiring insulation. Our method takes a stator with iso under 200k ohm and gets it to 40M ohm or higher (typical lately is 80 to 120 megaohm). We...

    Hybrid ReVolt

    My name is Matt and I own Hybrid ReVolt. We have been fixing Tesla's and the occasional Rav4 EV based on the Tesla drive train. We can do battery, drive unit and most other repairs. Feel free to reach out if we can be of assistance.

    Matt with Hybrid ReVolt. Hopefully this is acceptable to post here. If the drive unit has an iso fault, we can fix it (we do the Tesla LDU).
