Towed in no start.

Nissan Altima Hybrid towed in with a no start.  Code P0A7A ... Bad inverter.  Removed and replaced the bad Inverter (pictures below).  Add coolant with vacuum feed.   After installing the new inverter we remove the ground on the 12v battery to reset all the codes.   Took it for a test drive to reset any other codes left behind.
Drained inverter coolant before starting.  Also remove the Service Plug for safety.

Make sure you remove all connectors and hoses before you remove.

Remove all brackets and place in new inverter before you install.


Another Gen 2 Prius taxi came in a while back with a malfunction on his instrument cluster panel (black out).  We gave him a loner unit that we installed while his original was sent out for repairs.   He came today because his origanal unit was ready for installation.  Stripped the dash from drivers side to the passenger side.  Thank you Rick for teaching me the way.


Remove all pieces from left to right to get to the center console.


Center console removed from the car and unscrew unit and replace with  rebuilt one.

Complete after new instrument cluster was finish.  Thanks again Rick.
