The hybrid battery in your Camry hybrid has a cooling fan to cool down the hybrid pack. This fan gets clogged with lint, dirt and debris and stops cooling the hybrid battery efficiently.
These cars were not equipped it with a filter from the factory so they were common to get clogged and cause premature Toyota Camry Hybrid Battery failure.
Keeping this fan clean is very important for the health and logenvity of your hybrid battery.
In this video I will show you how to clean the fan first. Then install an origianl add-on filter for the vent so you never have to worry about the fan getting clogged again and make it a 5 second job to clean the filter.
The filter part no. is G92DH-33010 and can be bought online or at your local Toyota Dealership.
This applies to 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 Camry Hybrid

Just to clarify this does apply to 2007-2011 Camry hybrid models. The filter part no is G92DH-33010

@The Car Care Nut Thanks for the great videos and perfect explanations. I tried to find with no success the similar videos about Avalon Hybrid 13-18. Do you have it somewhere? I mean hybrid battery filter and fan cleaning in Toyota Avalon 13-18. Thanks in advance.

@ianb8810 11 месяцев назад

@@oi32df, that's why any subsequent models are much easier. Toyota learned from this mistake. With my 2014 model, you just look in the vent on the side of the seat and you can see if it needs cleaning. Even if it does, it's a 20 minute job. My wife's 2011 model, yeah, that took a while.

@jeffreyjones6239 11 месяцев назад

Not to disagree with the Car Care Nut, I definitely have high regard for his expertise and experience... but I just found I could remove/replace the fan assembly after only: -removing the seat bottom, -folding down the seatbacks, -removing the plastic carpet/upholstery behind the seats -removing the plastic/upholstery covering the fan in the trunk, -undoing the bolts/clip holding the fan assembly, + the cable -wiggling the assembly a bit installation is the reverse of removal. Saved me a whackload of time and trouble! But again, I have every regard for our friend! Great video and great advice. Keep it coming!

@toriless 2 месяца назад

removing the seat bottom was the FIRST step, watch again.

@willgreenjr1 3 года назад

Mannnn………..I never knew our Camry hybrid had a filter until I heard you talk about it in one of your videos,”Should you buy a used hybrid, things to look for/ keep maintained”. Just called my wife to tell her don’t drive that vehicle another darn mile until I check that fan. A lot of dealers don’t even include this in normal maintenance checks. Thank you so much for the heads up. And may The Lord Bless and keep you as well my brother.

@JeffEhorn 2 года назад

Thanks for the video! You have great knowledge, instruction style, and presentation. Did this today on my 08 (111k miles) and the fan was pretty clean. I cleaned the fan with compressed air and actually took a q-tip and cleaned each fin. Figured since I spent time removing it might as well spend 10 mins making it like new again.

@vicjilly 3 года назад

This is right on time Brother! I have a 2011 Camry Hybrid being delivered on Sunday and I will have a maintenance inspection on Monday. I will ensure that they check the high voltage fan and if I decide to keep the vehicle I will buy a filter for the vent. Thank you for always giving good info. May the Lord bless you and Keep, and may He shine His face upon you.

@user-zq2gm2mk4o 11 месяцев назад

Very useful for replacing trunk torsion spring. My mechanic was reluctant to do the job due to the battery vent being in the way. Dealers would charge around $700. I followed the steps to remove the vent and installed the new torsion spring. Also checked the fan and it was clean. Took about 2 hours. Excellent instructions. Thanks so much.

@user-ub2de8zq6p Год назад

Thanks much for the video. Another excellent video with step-by-step instructions. I just worked through this procedure on my 2009 Camry Hybrid with 231K miles. The fan was actually in good shape, but I used a small brush on each fan blade and compressed air to blow out the dust. Outside of standard maintenance, which is expected, I have had absolutely no problems with this Camry Hybrid. Even with the high mileage, I am still getting 37+ MPG. Thanks again. TS

@rogerhirsh3124 Год назад

Thanks! Job complete on my 2009 Camry Hybrid. Video was a big help, showing what steps to take, in order. Turned out the fan was pretty clean, but reassuring to know it's done. Filter is on order. Only hint was to make sure the plastic lip on the side cushions is positioned properly when reinstalling, to the outside of the main cushion.

@zabduhamel6745 2 года назад

Great video took me about 2h ! I ordered the filter from the dealership and this saved me alot of money by doing it myself. For cleaning I used a toothbrush and a tornado gun. Was a good time to clean my backseat also 😁

Filter was only 15$CAD !

@keeppushingtruth2356 3 года назад

Thank you so much. You saved me a ton of money!! I hooked up tech stream afterwards and my car is running great now!

@hybrid711 3 года назад

Tip I used when cleaning my hybrid battery cooling fan. The can of compressed air was not strong enough to clean it alone. I used Q-tips 30-40, one for each plastic fan blade & a wooden skewer to get in the seams. Then use the can of air to clean up. This takes longer but the fan will be very clean.

Thanks, great video. This procedure worked just fine for my Australian model, too. My fan was very clean, even with 195,000km on the clock. My Toyota dealer doesn't have the clip on filter G92DH-33010 in their computer, so I guess Toyota Australia is being up to their usual standard. I've ordered one from the USA on ebay - expensive, but I'd rather have it than not. The vent looks the same, so hopefully it will be ok.

Thanks for this! Just ordered this from a Canadian dealership, special order and list price $13.46 CAD. For our 2011. More a wire mesh filter (think patio door/window screen) than an actual particle filter. More for preventing bugs and random objects going into the intake vent then filtering dust from going in. Worth it for peace of mind, anyway.

@mrhardy7660 2 года назад

@andyconnolly6205 Год назад

I just did this today and it only took me 15 minutes (including cleaning the fan with a vacuum and small paint brush). I only removed the cover in the trunk and the cover behind the back seats. Took the three bolts, plastic pin, unplugged it and it slid right out (pull from inside toward the front of the car). No need to remove seat, sides, luggage tray, etc. Way really quick and easy. And it slid right back in.

hybridautomotive.com/install-hh1pnp/ would be the tough way; don't know what the harness is for, but included is cleaning the battfan. If there's any way to get a vacuum tube (caveat below) into the air intakes, say by removing the vent covers, assuming there's no rigamarole in doing this, that's be much easier, as I'm thinkin' anything caught in the system will be on the inflow side, as the rest will have gone out the exhaust. Caveat--I've heard vacuums generate huge static electricity, so I'd do a whole lot of searching to see whether that can be done safely and how. Edit: Yo! _Three_ battfans, one per intake! www.dustlesstools.com/blog/how-to-fix-static-shock-on-your-vacuum-hose/ Oh, I'm still afraid this would be crazy risky. Look how well not following manufacturer procedures worked out for American Airlines Flight 191. It'd be nice to have a minicam installed alongside the copper wire, though. I'd imagine trying it hands-off on a few expendable low-voltage devices and then on high-voltage ones before tackling the traction battery fan would be prudent, too. It also crossed my mind that, in a SW summer, placing Blue Ice packs in front of the intakes would help, but condensation issues might well be contra-indicative.

Oh, I see, the first thing I want to do is get a camera safely in there to see if they even need cleaning at all, because if they don't, filters on now.

I just bought a 2007 with 60,000 miles. I watched this video and was thinking of doing this to check the fan. Then the unthinkable happened, the trunk will not open. I cannot find a way to defeat the locked trunk. I went over the owner's manual on the smart key thinking I somehow disabled the trunk. There is nothing I can find that would disable the trunk latch. The problem is the back seat release is in the trunk. Is there a good way to defeat the trunk latch? I am trying to devise a way to pull the safety lever on latch. I have removed the bottom of the back seat. I can maneuver the upper seat to see the latch but cannot move reach it. BTW I have tried all the normal ways open the trunk. I am quite familiar with Camry Smart Key System and the Valet lockout, as I have owned a 2007 XLE for 8 years. Update. I managed to release the seats through the speaker cutouts. From there I was able to use extensions on normal tools to take out the latch. Somehow a stud from the air dam had fallen in the mechanism and locked it up. I followed the instructions from this video and cleaned the fan while there.

I have a 2013 Avalon hybrid. Is the process similar?

@TheCarCareNut 3 года назад

Hi! It’s similar but not exactly the same. I am actively looking for an Avalon hybrid in the Chicago area to film a similar video with. Once I find one I’ll post it

I wonder why they did not put those 2 bolts to the inside so you don t have to remove so many pannels...

@chinorodriguez3001 3 года назад

Is it possible to clean the fan with a gas station air pump and if so, would the high pressures not be damaging to the fan?

@chinorodriguez3001 3 года назад

If not, would compressed air in a can work?

@TheCarCareNut 3 года назад

I would be careful with compressor air on the fan. You’d need to remove the fan because if you clean it with it installed you’ll push all the dirt inside the battery

@chinorodriguez3001 3 года назад

@@TheCarCareNut yes sir I do plan to remove the fan, clean it, reinstall, and also install the filter today. Compressed air in a can is ok then?

@TheCarCareNut 3 года назад

Yes in that case you’re good with compressed air. Just don’t let the fan spin when you clean it. Hood it in place while you clean it
