Toyota Prius 2nd Gen Engine Won't Shut Down or Turn Off? This Is How To Video Fix It!

[@rgarcia2418]

Your video is to-the-point and accurate for what was going on with my 2008 Toyota Prius. Thank you.

[@macdaddypimpping]

You're welcome!

This video saved me an urgent trip to the repair shop! I actually drove with it this way (dash display dark) and didn't discover that it wouldn't turn off until I parked. While I called the mechanic, my friend found your video. I decided to drive home before trying your trick. Interestingly, the display came back to life before I got home, and then the car turned off ok without having ever done the magic sequence. But I will know what to do next time! BTW, can you give more detail on the capacitor that needs to be replaced?

[@macdaddypimpping]

The capacitor that is within the dash, it's a common problem with this 2nd generation Prius. I will try to make a video on that soon.

[@elishaherrera2407]

Are you pressing brake while pushing on/off button?

[@macdaddypimpping]

Yes

[@shantughose2864]

Any video for capacitor replacement? For dashboard display sometimes don't turn on!!!

[@macdaddypimpping]

[@macdaddypimpping]

Here: ruclips.net/video/E3HKhahufCA/видео.html, there are two capacitors, one is for the dashboard and the other one is for engine not shutting down properly. I have changed out both bad capacitors and now my Prius 100% working without any problems.

[@macdaddypimpping]

Here is the permanent fix: ruclips.net/video/E3HKhahufCA/видео.html

[@richardbuckholz2091]

Thanks, it worked - any thoughts on why this happened and should I expect more of the same in the future?

[@macdaddypimpping]

Yup, this 2nd generation Prius have a fail capacitor that's inside the dashboard and need to get it replace with a higher one.

[@kimjohnson7469]

This, as well as other issues, happens constantly with my 2007. I finally made a little laminated chart with all the fixes I need to use for the various electrical issues it has!

[@DailyDoseOfMigue]

@@macdaddypimpping so you mean fixing the dashboard light issue and replacing it, should fix the shutting off issue for good?

[@SxetehakhBettehakh]

By what it wouldn’t turn off? What’s the reason?

[@macdaddypimpping]

Capacitor in the dashboard going faulty or bad.
