    Thank you for this! We have a 2014 and this video was 100% relevant. We used the dome light in a parking garage and the driver pulled out of the garage in bright sunlight while the passenger was destracted. Had a total brain fart on follow up. Car sat in garage 5 days without being started. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Lessons learned. Thank you thank you thank you. We got her started back up and will be very careful with that done light from now on.

    Hello sir, so I have 2014 toyota prius and I left the back seat lights on all night and when I wanted to start the car to drive two days after it won’t even have any lights or cat noise , so my question is will the main battery be recharged again? Or do I have to change the whole thing ?

      Only change the battery once you have thoroughly tested it or had it tested and verified it really is toast. Batteries can also be refurbished and there are videos on that here on RUclips.

    My 12-volt discharged; I got it jumped but I'm getting that "Malfunction -- put it onto flat surface (it already is) & parking brake" message. I've run it for 90+ minutes thinking I'd override it but I THINK I may have to unload everything in it to get to the 12-volt in the back, to disconnect it for awhile & then connect it again. Is that likely what I'll have to do in order to get past that 'flat surface' message so I can put it in gear? Is there any way to get the effect of "disconnecting the 12-volt" from the front access in engine compartment? Or any amount of letting it run & charge that will override that message (3 hours? 4? I'd do anything to avoid unloading the car to reach the 12-volt....)?

    • @ronsedlak4019
      @ronsedlak4019 Год назад +1

      You can open the fuse compartment (just as he shows in this video, back right corner under hood). You will see a heavy white cable there, can't miss it. You can disconnect that cable (carefully), which disconnects the 12v battery in the back without having to unload everything from the back as you say. Leave this disconnected for 30 seconds then plug it back in. Has the effect of a reboot for the car. This has saved me 2-3x when I have had trouble starting my 2011 Prius. It has even eliminated the 'triangle of death' when it was not a valid iindicator.

    My 2012 Prius was overheating. I had a head gasket leak. So I changed the water pump cleared the codes and went for a drive. Everything was fine then I noticed the car was in EV mode and the gas engine shut off. The car died and wouldn't start. So I got towed and I disconnected that heavy white clip in the fuse box. someone said that this will clear the computer because the computer detected a issue within the charging system. So I did that and was so happy that the car started right up but now when I drive it, it happens all the time after driving 5 to 10 miles.

    Mine won’t start except I have no lights come on and no door chime. I tested the 12v battery and it’s testing fine. Tried to jump the car and it wouldn’t work.
