Thank you so much. My Honda Civic IMA is from 2007 and has 160,000 km. Lately the IMA battery did not keep the charge well, it charged quickly and discharged much faster. I was thinking of changing the battery but I found your video and, after doing it only 3 times, the battery has improved a lot. The car has power again and the battery lasts a long time. Also the average consumption has dropped from 6.6 L/100 km to 5.3 L/100 km, both in mixed city-highway consumption. I hope it lasts a long time. Thank you. Thank you

Thank You- This is one of the most helpful videos on how to actually test this pack in a simple way. My 2007 would click over to the third bar and immediately jump to recalibrate. 2-3 is as far as it would go using this method. Our poor IMA condition (230,000km) had eventually caused the car to stall in really cold Canadian Winters. I wanted to be sure before spending the big bucks! I decided to rebuild the pack with new sticks from China. After very detailed and tricky work (Note some mods were required to make original end caps fit) . After I installed my rebuilt pack. ...I put the 12v battery cable back on....and...Voila....the car kicked into charge mode (higher rev than standard 880 rpm idle). Well.... starting at 3 bars I let it sit and run while it slowly climbed to FULL BARS.... one friggging bar at a time!!! Not once did it recalibrate and jump around. Just saying....really happy and Very satisfied ....and you helped A LOT on the diagnosis...Thanks again.

I have recently purchased a Honda Civic hybrid that is 12 years old but has covered only 28,000 miles in that time. The IMA light came on the other day so that is when I started to investigate what might resolve the issue without straight away buying a new battery pack. I have carried out the procedure in your great video, over 10 hours as you recommend. So far the IMA light has stayed out for 10 days, and I notice that when the car has been standing overnight and I start up in the morning, the hybrid battery monitor reads 100% (8 bars), whereas previously it would read only 2 bars and take 5 minutes driving to reach 8 bars. I'm not saying that my issue is solved, too early to say, but if the IMA light comes on again I'll get an OBD reader to lift any fault codes and go from there. If it's just a battery issue (and not a fault with the inverter/converter) I'll invest in a proper grid charger and cycle the battery pack a few times. If that doesn't help then a rebuilt battery pack using all new (not reconditioned) cells cost £1450 (around $1900) here in the UK. I'm guessing they use Chinese made NiMh cells as the original Japanese Panasonic cells are no longer in production. They come with a 3 year warranty, so worth the risk as the car looks and drives like new.
@karrskars4 жыл бұрын
Yes a grid charger should work great for yours. Your batteries were likely not balanced correctly from the car not being used for long amounts of time. Glad it helped!

@@karrskars Thanks for your help. I went for a long drive today and still no IMA light. The battery, assist and charge indicators all seem to be reporting as they should and I'm getting 45mpg for mixed town and highway driving. I borrowed a friends OBD reader and run a scan for stored error codes. The scan found zero stored error codes so that's encouraging. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and may buy a grid charger anyway as I think it's a good investment if your are running an ageing hybrid.

No it just means it’s able and it’s force charge longer than some. So higher capacity.

Usually that means your hybrid battery is failing.

i changed my civic's battery pack from 2013 fit. but it charges only the 4 bar and then itself full fills completely when discharging it does same, it goes down to 4-5 bars and then discharges completely. so what's wrong with it? i have not ima or check engine light, but i think my batteries does not work as it should. i had 2 civic hyrbids and both had same problem.

That’s a recal. It means your batteries inside the pack aren’t in sync and you need to use a grid charger to fix it or rebuild it or replace it.

Same I just started having these problems. It might be the 12v battery that needs to be replaced. I will keep doing more research

Are you saying it turns over but doesn’t start? Try jumping the 12v battery first.

Did you try jumping it? Hybrid battery usually never goes completely dead. Could be a dc dc converter or the hybrid ECU

@@karrskars I was thinking it was the battery. The ima light had been on for quite a while. I didn’t know what it meant so I never paid much attention to it. I was just going to try and replace it and pray I don’t spend 1000 for nothing
