    you need to read the trouble codes with a prius aware scanner, like an autel maxi 200.
    in the meantime, check the 12 volt battery health

    Those are not always good things to do before reading the trouble codes, because they cause that information to be lost, and then it can be harder to identify the problem.

    If your lights have come back right away, you are fortunate not to have to wait some longer interval to have the information available again.

    If you have access to a scan tool that can read all trouble codes from a Prius, that would be the obvious next step. If you do not, then in the interim you can get some of the trouble codes (those for the brake / traction / stability system, anyway) like this:

    Blink (a/k/a Flash) Codes – How to. | PriusChat

    It will be good to know at least some of the codes ASAP. However, I will not be surprised if some of the codes you can get, by the blink method, will indicate the presence of other codes you can't get that way, in which case, eventually, a suitable scan tool (or a visit with someone who has one) will be in order.
