    Is that Sri Lankan script? Or Japanese?

    What is the history of your vehicle - was it bought new in Sri Lanka, or a 2nd hand import from, maybe Japan?

    If it's Japanese, I haven't noticed that we have any members (Gen 4 at least) from Japan on PriusChat. Maybe someone is able to interpret it for you.

    No guarantees - but check out this link - it relates to an earlier PRIUS - but some of the characters referred to seem similar - referring to the key/FOB battery.

    Japanese import fault message | PriusChat

    You could check if it does it if you use the Spare Key.

    Must be warning for low battery in the key fob.

    "Google Translate" really should be called, "Google Get You Pointed in the Right Direction." :LOL: It can really help, but is often hilarious.

    Now that's funny right there. And isn't it nice of us this time to find the answer to a question before we go off on another bunny trail. :ROFLMAO:
