Please provide the param file for V2.3
What gearstick are you using?

Did you re-select and save your inverter?

I didn’t re select the Prius as it came across when I updated the parameters from my saved 2.15A parameters.
The only thing that I could tell that didn’t come over was the BMW S box.

Couldn’t find MG1 or MG2 available for selection

I installed 2.20A and sadly it still doesn't move.
Attached is the log and 2.20A parameters
Thanks

Re: Unlocking the power/torque of Prius gen 3 drive train?
If you flash it back to V2.15A you get drive again? Surprised it just refuses to work.
Your V2.20a log does not show Potnom or Torque, this stop it from driving.
Will need to work out what is different if it works on V2.15A makes it work again.

Thanks Tom, I will go to 2.15A and see what happens

Re: Unlocking the power/torque of Prius gen 3 drive train?
Sorry Tom, how do I flash it back to 2.15A?
I tried “updating” it to 2.15A and it remained on 2.20A

Okay, so I downloaded the 2.15A bin file as linked and upgraded the Zombie.
Unfortunately the file seems to be 2.20A on spot values even after numerous Zombie reboots and refreshes… is it possible to be the wrong file?

So back to 2.15A with the help of Hakan and his soldering/ ST link magic. The car is back up and running after loading up the previous parameters.
Keen to try whatever is required to progress the Prius 3 experience

Re: Unlocking the power/torque of Prius gen 3 drive train?
There must be something on your setup causing problems. Damien utilizes a Gen 3 Prius on the bench for zombie release testing.
Not the best to just go at it if it means risking not being able to move the car though.

Re: Unlocking the power/torque of Prius gen 3 drive train?
Thanks Tom and Damien.
I really would like to try 2.20A again and see if we can get the car rolling with all the great features.
I rewatched Damien’s video on 2.20A and also Greg’s latest one and think that maybe I could have the wrong dirmode setting
The Ghia isn’t a daily just an exciting rolling experiment so I am going for a 2.15A drive with logs and then upgrade to 2.20A

Re: Unlocking the power/torque of Prius gen 3 drive train?
Well 2.20A software is loaded and I have uploaded my 2.15A parameters.
Changed;
Transmission to manual
Shunt type to Sbox
Dir mode to switch
Looks promising but car is not moving!
I am sure that there is something obvious that I am missing!

Change inverter and change it back again. Can you also please post your inverter serial number/part number

Re: Unlocking the power/torque of Prius gen 3 drive train?
Changed the inverter from Prius 3 to none and back to Prius 3 and powered down/up the Zombie, unfortunately the car didn’t move.
Thanks

Re: Unlocking the power/torque of Prius gen 3 drive train?
Did you provide an over view of your wiring? Just want to check its all been done right. Mainly interested in the grounds and 12V supplies and relays.

Re: Unlocking the power/torque of Prius gen 3 drive train?
I don’t have a wiring diagram but I will take some detailed photos tomorrow to show the setup.
I slavishly followed Greg’s Rabbit wiring etc and because of having worked on quite a lot of VWs and Subarus I made sure that there is an abundance of grounds.

Re: Unlocking the power/torque of Prius gen 3 drive train?
Is all the 12V to the inverter via that relay?
If the issues remains like it does need to confirm what inverter Greg has in his rabbit and what firmware was used as a base for testing on it (yes I did write it but its a while ago).
