    I have an 01 prius which recently had 4 codes come up.
    P3000 and a few other misfire codes
    P3125
    P3120?
    the car feels like the e brake is on and now does not go into reverse, feels like its stuck in neutral to. does this sound like a problem with my transaxle?

    P3000 - HV battery
    P3120 - transaxle
    P3125 - inverter

    Usually it is just one of these three components.

    What happens if you clear the codes? How many miles on the car? Was the transaxle fluid ever changed?
