This a load of rubbish!!! I done this in my 2019 Rav 4 Excel and 2018 C-HR both hybrid cars. When the low fuel warning came on the Rav it managed 48 miles and the C-HR managed 72 miles so not sure how you got those figures. I didn’t have an OBD scanner but disconnecting the battery and reconnecting after a few minutes cleared the codes.

Every Rav4 owner should see this video. I agree with their final conclusion. The premature low fuel light could be that toyota simply does not want owners to run out of gas. It literally disables the car. You cannot restart if even if you put more gas in.

It applies to EVERY Toyota Hybrid, not just the Rav4! If you run completely out of gas, the ECM will very likely throw trouble codes. Everyone who owns a car with an OBD-II port should own an OBD-II dongle and have an app on their cell phones to read and re-set trouble codes.

Just a note, after 3 failed attempts to start the hybrid engine, the computers will enter a Hybrid Lockout mode to protect the engine and hybrid components and will need to be towed to a Toyota dealer so they can clear the codes and get the car running again, or you can clear the codes. I think Toyota does this to keep the Traction Battery from discharging too much to the point where it will become permanently damaged or put it in an extremely vulnerable state where if the engine does start and try to charge the battery an overheating issue could occur and put the vehicle and it's occupants at risk

That was great guys lol I’ve wondered about this exact situation ever since I got mine last year

On the older Priuses the risk was that, since the traction battery runs the electric motor, and the electric motor is used to start the engine, if you run out of gas and then drain the traction battery, you won't be able to start the engine at all. in that case the only solution is to tow your car to the dealership where they have a 400-volt charger to charge up your traction battery. Looks like in the RAV4 they put in a fail safe that will shut down the engine before you run down the traction battery completely.

@laura-ann.0726

5 ай бұрын

On both the Prius Prime I used to own, and my new Rav4 Prime, the battery management computer will never allow the traction battery to drop below about 13.5% to 14.0% State of Charge before starting the ICE engine, and I assume the non-Prime Hybrids have a similar set-point for starting the ICE engine when the traction battery gets low. With a Prime, you can just plug it in to recharge, assuming you are home or at a public L2 charger, but this isn't an option with the regular Hybrids. The most vulnerable cars are Toyota Hybrids with NIMH traction batteries, as these will "self-discharge" faster than the lithium-ion batteries in the Prime models if the car is stored too long without being driven. How long this takes depends on how much charge was in the battery when it was parked after the last drive, but Ahmed the Car Care Nut, who is a professional Toyota service tech in the Chicago area (he does really excellent KZread vids on Toyota maintenance. and car reviews), cautions that Toyota Hybrids in long-term storage should be started and run for at least a few minutes at least once a month, to prevent the traction battery from self-discharging below the minimum level needed to crank the ICE engine. Toyota Hybrids in long-term storage that aren't started for 6 months or more, are at very high risk to have a traction battery sef-discharge below the minimum level to start the ICE engine, at which point you are going to have to get it towed to a dealership for a rescue charge.

I've been driving a 2019 Prius Prime for the last 4 years, and will take delivery of a Rav4 Prime next week. This may be one of the most valuable KZread videos I will watch all year. Another thing I want to point out to all Toyota Hybrid owners: the starter motor for the gas engine in your car is the MG1 motor/generator, which is powered from the traction battery, NOT the 12 volt accessory battery. If your traction battery ever gets so low that it can't crank the engine over, there is no way that you can recharge it at home. All Toyota dealers have a "rescue" charger in the service department, which plugs into the inverter, or into the DC power cable that runs between the inverter and the traction battery. This system carries potentially lethal voltage and it's why only dealerships, or Toyota-specializing repair shops, are likely to have this equipment. If you have to have a Toyota Hybrid towed in to a repair shop because the traction battery is too depleted to crank over the ICE, a session on the rescue charger is likely to cost you at least $400. So DON'T run your Toyota HSD out of gas! The possible consequences can cost you hundreds of dollars, even if no actual damage has been done. These two guys were very lucky that they had an OBD-II scanner at hand, that allowed them to clear the ECM trouble codes, or they would likely have had to call for a tow truck. NOTE: If you have a Prius Prime or Rav4 Prime, a dead traction battery is less of a problem, because you can plug in and recharge it at home without having to resort to a $400 visit to a repair shop for a "rescue recharge".

You guys definitely took a pretty good risk to try this experiment, what came out of this though is by removing all the codes with the OBDII you found a way to restart and move again after adding just a gallon of fuel. I will keep this in mind for myself since I drive a Kia Niro hybrid and even when I didn't drive a hybrid I never let it go completely empty for fear of burning the pump inside the fuel tank. The fuel keeps the fuel pump in your gas tank lubricated without ant fuel it can burn out and you will definitely have to get towed and replace the pump. Next time be very careful driving on empty.

Now we can turn our attention to the other gas problem, where some owners see their refueling going from 10 gallons to 8, 5, and even less. I had this problem on a corvette and it was due to the bladded. The metal enclosure (it the tank) did not have its air holes punched out...quality control issue. I don't have this issue.

With the Rav4 Prime it would probably go a bit farther with the 3kw of battery left when it's all the way discharged into Hybrid mode but I would still not want to test that theory without a plan B ready to go. Having an OBD2 scanner that can reset the codes so that it tries again after you put more fuel back in really saved you there!

As Toyota makes all Siennas Hybrid maybe a scanner is a good idea. Feels like I’m always fueling my Rav4 with the10 gallons. Thanks for the video.

Good to know, I drive a 2019 Honda Insight EX hybrid sedan and the gasoline engine will not power the car if the Li-On battery is dead which seems to be what you're experiencing. When I drive the car in the morning the gas engine runs but only charges the battery until I get to 40mph before the electric generator and engine work to together to provide a combination of electric and gasoline power. I do love my gas mileage of 60mpg and occasionally get close to 70mpg driving the back country roads of east Tennessee .
