Hybrid and EV Cooling Systems

Weber State University (WSU) - Department of Automotive Technology - Ardell Brown Technology Wing - Transmission Lab.

This episode covers the engine, inverter, and transmission cooling systems found on most hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and electric vehicles. The cooling system covered in this video is from a 2017 Toyota Prius Eco, but the components and operation will be similar to any other hybrid or electric vehicle (minus the engine cooling)

This video helps cover content related to the 2017 National Automotive Technicians Education Foundation (NATEF) Master Automobile Service Technology (MAST) Standard task 1.A.9 "Identify service precautions related to service of the internal combustion engine of a hybrid vehicle."

This topic is taught as part of our 4-year bachelor's degree program. For more information on the Weber Automotive program, visit: http://www.weber.edu/automotive

This video was created and edited by Professor John D. Kelly at WSU. For a full biography, see http://www.weber.edu/automotive/J_Kel...
