    the past 2 days we had a lot of rain up here in NJ and today i started my prius ( previously crashed ) and turned on my air conditioner, after about a minute of cooling ( i charged it correctly ) the red triangle comes on the dash and the MFD says Problem, the car still works perfectly with the red triangle, but after i shut it off the vehicle wouldnt restart unless i pull 12 volt battery power off and put it back on

    im wondering what the problem could be?

    forgot to mention, once the red triangle came on the circle amber exclamation point along with VSC lights came on.

    If it were mine I'd take it to the dealer and have them read the codes.
