In this video, I go through a step-by-step process of replacing a 2004 Toyota Prius GEN 2 inverter coolant pump. Included are basic diagnosing instructions for the do-it-yourselfer. This should work for Toyota Prius 2004-2009 although be sure to do your homework before purchasing a new part.

Bro this video is so good, your calm, methodical direction converts a stressful situation into a "oh cool I'm learning how to fix my car"

I thought it was the end of our Prius when I got that triangle. Turns out, it was a simple fix. Glad I could help!

Fantastic video. Just replaced my 2009 Prius Inverter pump as well. From everything I have read, it looks like the Prius should shut the vehicle down if your pump fails and temps get too high. My wife and daughter were able to drive another 15 miles or so on the freeway to get the car home so I could repair it. I saw a lot of cheap pumps on Amazon, but ended up going for a more expensive one as it seemed like the lifespan on some of the cheaper ones was limited.

Thanks! If you’re thinking of keeping your Prius long-term, I’d definitely recommend more expensive parts because they are typically more durable. I purchased a few higher quality parts to fix issues on my Civic and Dakota. Hoping to make videos soon.

Pump's metal bracket bolt to car body torque to 5 ft/lb. Inverter bolt on that black brace torque to 16ft/lbs.

I did not know that, thank you. I just use the ol’ ‘feel that it’s tight enough’ trick

@paatasimsive507 Год назад

I mentioned that you also had the airbag code to fix. Did you fix it? I also have the same problem. Changed the steering wheel spiral but still did not help. Could youx advise please?

@vitaliksvideos Год назад

I haven’t reset the airbag yet, which is how you fix it and make the sign on your dashboard go away. You can do that by visiting your local dealer (cost will be about $100+ depending on your vehicle), or you can purchase your own ‘car scanner’ device (aka OBD scanner) such as the Foxwell NT510 elite off Amazon. Someone else can add on if you have tips to share.

@thomaskutches2613 Год назад

looks like you replaced with a non-toyota OEM pump off amazon or ebay. How is it holding up?

@vitaliksvideos Год назад

You’re right, purchased off Amazon for about $30. 6 months later haven’t have any issues

@@vitaliksvideoshow about now?

@vitaliksvideos Год назад

@@RobertLW Still going strong! No issues with insufficient coolant supply and no appearance of the 'triangle of death' since the making of the video

@bw4902 Год назад

@@vitaliksvideos May I ask which model on amazon you purchased? Pump just died for me.

@vitaliksvideos Год назад

I purchased this: a.co/d/93o0MdT Hoping the link I attached to this message works. If not, let me know and I will direct message you.

Always buy this pump from the dealership. Do not buy from Amazon or Ebay, They are all knokoff

@vitaliksvideos 7 дней назад

Dealerships have the OEMs! But they’re also pricy. If you have the money, yes - buy from a dealership. If not, a knockoff might be okay. Our Amazon replacement is still running strong to this day.

@stevepope5484 5 месяцев назад

Pause! Why didn't you point into a dark area near the engine? First video with a light and actually show the pump!

@vitaliksvideos 5 месяцев назад

I don’t know.. I’m certainly not a professional. lol

@stevepope5484 5 месяцев назад

Luckily mine is flowing. Hope I'm not needing a investor. 12 volt get low quickly. Installed new plain 12 volt. Went 10 miles then.you no. Changed to the correct battery. 30 miles then /same. Both times /I coul hear Olympic one contact making.o start up.Not the normal sound of 2. Swaped the battery computer recently too/due to corroded connector. May reinstall mine with its new plug the used computer came with a better harness/connector.
