Is my hybrid battery dead?

Good morning,

Yesterday on my morning commute, the red triangle, brake light and check engine light popped up on my dashboard. After about 10 more minutes of driving I lost a lot of my driving power.

The system screen showed that there was no brake regenerating happening. I could hear the battery fan going behind me pretty loud.

Later that day I did pick up a cheap scan tool and it did not find any trouble codes. I did hit clear to clear codes and all the warning lights went off. The car then drove pretty normal for abount 10 minutes. The battery charging bars seemed to be acting wierd. It went all they way up to green real fast and then back down to 1 bar real fast. After about ten minutes all of the warnings came back on.

The car just hit 140K that same morning.

Any ideas?

 

Hello, I bought the car used and do not know if the recall repair was done. I do have the origional letter from toyota on the recall in my documents. I see from the other posting my vin is not recognized as a recall. I will call the dealer on Monday. Thank you for the model correction. Let me know if you have any other advise. thanks, shawn

 

Hello, I do not think my 12volt has ever been replaced. I bought my car used so I do not know if the inverter coolant pump was worked on. My vin does not match the recalled cars, but I do have the toyota letter sent to the origional owner in my docs. About 5000 miles ago I had some front end damage repair, they did replace the radiator and some other coolant things. I will call the body shop and the dealership on Monday to see if they will do some free diagnostics. Your advise is greatly appreciated. If you have any suggestions please let me know.

Thanks,
