So originally I started an EV conversion project years ago, but unfortunately it has sat unattended for quite a while. I'm looking to dive back into the project, and trying to wrap my head around where to begin. I have a Gen3 Yaris/Auris inverter, and a Gen2 transaxle. I don't have the control board...

My understanding was that Auris and Yaris are identical in terms of actual components

oooh I'd love to get one of these, 2 inverters for each the front wheels and rear wheels for AWD EV plus the 3rd one for charging

Pic 2 with the 3 connectors is AC and for the motor HV lines.

Probably should remove this misinformation. Can't be confusing people

I'm 99% sure that this board is for the 2010-12 models. The inverters will be able to drive any Prius transaxle, and theoretically could drive any 3 phase motor with a sensor (resolver)

What is included in a logic board kit besides the board?

I'd be happy to pay for a cover if someone wants to print an extra

What are you doing with the cells you don't need?

All we are missing now is a motor that can take advantage of all this power that is also cheap

Contributions to the wiki, documentation, or task list are of equal value :) I have a Gen3 Yaris inverter and a Gen2 Prius transaxle that I can use to help testing in any way. I am trying to figure out the shift control actuator using my vesc esc, slowly but surely getting it to spin cleanly. If th...

Thanks for the perspective Kevin. I truly appreciate the efforts put in by Damian constantly. Is the Patreon the best way to support the projects financially? Can't give much as I'm effectively unemployed but still want to help out any way I can

Hey Stephen, the Yaris variant you see here is functionally identical to the Ge3 Prius board, its simply a different sized board, and I believe a second very small board that moves a couple components. Damian can confirm

Looking good. If this works will you share the model? I would much prefer to have a new gear machined than weld the old ones

Will this run MG1 at the same power levels as MG2 or simply max out MG1?

So at home I have access to 415v 3PH 60A service, will the charging circuitry in the Prius inverters (Auris specifically) be able to handle levels like this?

I'm gonna go down to my local parts supplier next week and see what they say, hopefully they can give me some idea of where I can go

I'm in this group, Prius C inverter in the mail ready to be Damienified

So as I understand it, this board currently uses MG2 for traction motor and MG1 for charging. Is there any plans to have both MG1+2 be available for the traction motor? Or how hard would it be to add the necessary components myself into another board or something? Have a Gen2 transaxle in the mail a...

I think I'll wait until the plug in boards are more mature or we are given some more direction as to how to implement a gear shifter. I simply don't have the mental capacity to be able to reverse engineer the CAN codes

I've watched those videos and understand that they don't use gears in the traditional sense, but with commanding them into drive is this done at the inverter with the Damian board or is there something on the transaxle itself that needs to be commanded, and then how do I get those commands from my s...

Hey so I'm planning on a Mazda 323 conversion with a Gen2 transaxle and a Gen3 inverter with Damian's board. This is still in the planning stages and as someone who bumbles their way through DIY projects I'm trying to try and sort out as much as possible mentally before I start. My question at this ...

This project has gotten my interest because the shifter was one part of my project that I was unsure of. I am currently in the planning stages of putting a Gen 3 Prius inverter with gen2 transaxle in a Mazda 323, and was just wanting to know how this shifter interfaces with the transmission, unless ...
