Repair or replace

  • The pack is 40 separate modules in series, so a few weak modules with the rest grouped tightly can be a module-level repair.
  • A widening spread across the pack: replacement.
  • We measure every module and show you the numbers before recommending either.
  • The 12V side is tested first. The 195h runs two 12V batteries in parallel, and a weak one sets off faults that look like the hybrid system.

Symptoms 195h operators report

  • A hybrid system warning on the meter.
  • Fuel economy falling back toward the diesel-only Hino 195.
  • Less assist pulling away from a stop, most obvious fully loaded.

Hino 195h hybrid battery questions

Which model years of the Hino 195h were sold in the US?
Hino launched the 195h as a 2013 model-year truck, in California from late 2012 and in every state from June 2013, and offered it through the 2020 model year. The double-cab 195h DC was added in late 2013.
Where is the hybrid battery on a Hino 195h?
In the case on the driver's-side frame rail. The same case holds the inverter and the hybrid control unit, so it should never be opened by anyone without high-voltage training.
How much does a Hino 195h hybrid battery cost?
It is priced on quote. Send the VIN through the form on this page or call, and we will tell you what a pack or a module repair costs for your truck.
