I have a 2002 pruis. The other day out of no where the warning light came on☡ 2 second later the GPS screen flicker and the car turned off on me. I waiting about 5 minutes and the car started up. Was told could be the main 12v battery but want more input on this. The warning light turn off on its own the next day.. any ideas ??. Thanks Posted via the PriusChat mobile app.
Welcome, Could be any number of things. Your best bet would be to have the codes pulled. It might just be a weak 12 volt battery, low on oil, or something else minor. However it could also be something major. Without the codes, you are surely guessing.
Check all fuild everything is good.. but yeah pretty much guess .. Posted via the PriusChat mobile app.
Read this string, then check your battery. 2002 Prius dead battery. | PriusChat If you have access to a digital volt meter, it would be a good idea to check the voltage. Again, without the codes we are guessing. But usually the 12 volt battery is one of the first things to check.
