Todo:
- Improve CAN-View instructions
Target outline (subject to change):
- An brief overview of the conversion, link to the main PriusPlus page for more in depth info
- Perhaps a "preview" of what they will be doing (maybe something similar to this outline?)
- Making decisions before starting the conversion
- Choosing a mounting method (done)
- Choosing the charger (list options - currently ZiVan NG3, DeltaQ (not available), Brusa, ManzitaMicro)
- Install CAN-View (first because it really helps in understanding how the Prius works)
- Building sub components
- Battery trays
- Battery box supports
- Battery box top
- Electronics tray / box
- Mechanical construction of tray / box
- Control board assembly
- LED board assembly
- Internal electronics tray/box wiring (yet to be written - though schematics exist)
- Charger mounting brackets (yet to be written)
- Installation into the Prius (the intent is that any prep work can be done before this point, so this step (which involves tearing apart the Prius) takes as little time as possible.)
- Remove the really basic stuff (the false floor, spare tire, storage bin)
- Route the EV mode wire and CAN-View cable to the trunk area
- Install charger / electronics box (for alt. mounting method) and related interconnect wiring
- Install 120v outlets / power supply (classic mounting method)
- Install battery box supports (alt. and classic, but different instructions for each)
- Install electronics tray and related interconnects (classic method)
- Dis-assemble the rest of the Prius trunk (instructions are written already on mechanical page)
- Do the OEM battery wiring modification (same for both, length of wire to control board is the only difference)
- Do the OEM battery tie in and tap the "READY" wire (requires disassembling the OEM battery, running HV wire - most of this already written)
- Re-assemble the Prius trunk.
- Tap into the 12v. accessory battery
- install & wire batteries and put on the battery box top (this needs to be one fluid step - it isn't safe to drive the car while the batteries are loose.)
- First, basic test of system - (yet to be written, but we have a lot of emails that could be translated into a paragraph from getting Jim Philippi's car working.)
- Programming CAN-View, control board, etc
