Prius (2004-09) :: 2005 - Just Won't Start
Immediately after parking my 2005 Prius (around 127k) on my block last night, I decided to turn the car back on to adjust parking, and it just wouldn't start. I got nothing: no new lights on dash, no light on power button. Just the flashing red car with the key in it (which I believe is on as long as the car is off?) on the dash. The car doesn't make any noises when I try to start it, except for a sort of low mechanical noise when I step on the brake (which I think always happens).

On Friday I went away for the weekend. When I arrive at my destination I noticed that the gas tank only have one gas bar. I figured I would fill it up before heading back home today Sunday. Then an hour ago I got into my car for a 2 hrs drive home but the car is not starting at all.
The empty spot where I was able to par the car was a small down hill. So I figured that the car was getting a signal telling it computer that the tank was empty even though it was showing a bar but the down hill must had affected the signal. A friend took me to a gas station where I was able to put at least 3 gallons on it.
Before I went to the gas station the car key would not get out of the slot and it was telling me something on the screen and the key was been blocked. So to the gas station we went then we put the 3 gallon and ZERO!! My car is still not starting up. I called a local dealership but the service dept is closed until tomorrow The person who answered said that there is nothing to do but to take it to the dealer tomorrow so they can reset it. Is he right on this? I remembered once before when I ran out of gas and I put some gas in the tank and was able to crank it up after putting gas in it. Then went to the gas station and filled it up. But this time nothing is happening. Do I need to ad more gas? What should I do. Also I must ad that after adding the 3 gallons the car panel is black and no msg is showing at all. Like all is dead

I drive a 2005 F-150 XLT with a 5.4L engine in it. This problem only happens after I have been running the truck on a small trip (15-20 min), stop to get something, and then 5 min later start the truck up, and this is the feedback I get.
-Sometimes it barely cranks, idles for a second and then cuts back off.
OR
-Takes much longer than usual to crank and get's going fine.
This is the only time it happens, upon restart after driving for a short period.
Prius (2004-09) :: 2005 Won't Start - No DTC Code
My Prius 2005 with 105K won't start. When I hit the START/STOP button while pressing the Brake pedal very hard, the READY lighthe blinks a few times then disappears. I used a Acton OBD II to find the codes, but NO DTC was logged. What could be the problem? I am thinking about towing it to the dealer next week.

My mechanic installed a new Hybrid battery in my 2005 Pruis using the repair manual and a video that showed him how to do it. He also replaced the harness and the ECU battery. When he tries to start the car all of the lights light up on the dash but no ready light on the start button and the car will not start. The instructions did not say anything about this issue so he is lost! He thinks the smart key and the ECU have to be synced in some way but doesn't know how to do it.

I have a 2005 Toyota Prius. All signs show the car's engine isn't receiving any gas. I started looking for the fuel pump but wasn't having much luck. I know what a typical fuel pump looks like and found nothing of the sort. I started taking the fuel tank down to get a better insight on the matter but it got dark so I left the job unfinished. As I started researching more into it, I'm not finding any information on fuel pumps for this generation Prius?? Looking up Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market for example, they'll list a fuel pump for the 2001-2003 generation, skip the 2004-2005 and go right into 2006-2009. Is there no fuel pump in a 2005 Prius?? And if not, what system is being used to deliver the fuel? If the engine isn't receiving fuel, where should I be looking?

My 2005 prius will not start. We had some body work done to it after a deer ran into me. They did a small amount of welding and had disconnected both batteries. Now the car will not start. It can be put in auxiliary mode but if you try to start it with your foot on the brake, it flashes some lights for a few seconds and then goes dead. Is the hybrid battery too low to start the car? It was pretty low. before the batteries were disconnected. Or did they possibly do something wrong when they disconnected the hybrid battery? Final question would be do they have to do some reprogramming after disconnecting the hybrid battery?

I have a 2005 Toyota Prius and the AC seems to work when the car is not warmed up. After about 5 to 10 minutes of driving the vehicle it does not seem to want to blow cold air. Obviously it works better in the morning then the afternoon but the AC seems to work intermittently. This may be electrical problem?

Im having some issues after swapping the engine on my 05. The swap went well and i hooked everything back up the way it was. I have triple checked every connection. If I am missing one then it is hidden extremely well.
I reconnected the HV and Aux batteries but the car will not go into ready mode. All the warning lights come on and the screen shows problem!
The inverter coolant pump is running, my basic obd2 scanner shows no codes.
Prius (2004-09) :: 2005 - Engine Making Some Noise And Then Went All At Once / Replacement?
I've decide to replace the engine in a 2005 Prius. For whatever reason it went bad around 110,000 miles. It was making some noise and then went all at once. I don't know the complete maintenance history of the car, but I know it was pretty regular. I also know the car was driven mainly highway miles and on A LOT of dirt roads. So, the oil may have needed more frequent oil changes.
View 19 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: 2005 - Heat Only Works When Engine Not Running
I recently ran very low on coolant with my 2005 Prius and had the overheat light coming on. Immediately before the overheat light came on, I realized that the blower was blowing cold air even though the engine was running. When the light came on, I immediately stopped and refilled coolant at the overflow reservoir and the radiator and let it run through a few times. I have re-topped off the coolant levels and it seems to be holding steady. Hopefully I have not done long-term damage to the engine, but that remains to be seen, and is, of course, very possible given that I let it get so low.
A symptom I have right now is that when I turn the car/engine on, hot air does not come out of the blower. If I remain in park, when the engine turns off, hot air begins to come out. When the engine kicks back in, the hot air stops. What this may be a symptom of?
Prius (2004-09) :: 2005 - Check Engine Light Comes On After Rain
I've got a 2005 Prius. Love it, but the "check engine" light always comes up after it rains (or the snow melts). It goes away a while after things dry out. For instance, yesterday it had rained over night, so the CEL was on in the morning. By the afternoon it was out. What kind of issue I could have?
View 5 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: 2005 - Engine Running Very Rough And CEL Flashing
We have a 2005 Prius with 77,400 miles on it. My wife came home from a short trip yesterday saying the engine was shaking the car and the CEL was flashing. About 4 months ago we also had the CEL come on but not flash and it ran a bit rough but not as bad as it is now. I was told by our local dealer that a flashing light is worse than if the light comes on and stays on. When this happened 4 months ago at 74,000 miles the dealer said they downloaded codes P300, 303, and 304 and that I needed to replace all 4 fuel injectors.
I realize that 300 is a general misfire code and 303 is a misfire code for cylinder 3 and 304 is for cylinder 4. After reading some advice on here 4 months ago, I cleaned my MAF sensor, ran some fuel injector cleaner through a tank of fuel, replaced all 4 spark plugs, and started buying Chevron gas. The CEL stayed off and our mileage went back to normal. I thought I had solved the problem but now this after 3000+ miles. I checked all the ingitors, connections, spark plugs, and wires yesterday and all seem to be in good condition. Maybe they were right and the fuel injectors are going bad. I am at a loss as what else to do other than take it back to the dealer now and plan do that this afternoon.
Prius (2004-09) :: 2005 - Gas Engine Noise / Bad Water Pump?
My 2005 Prius sounds louder to me than normal. The car has 117,000 miles on it and is in great condition. Anyways I can hear, maybe, on the gas engine what sounds like a bad water pump or tension pulley, not sure though? I checked the water pump area and there is no visible signs of a leak or dried pink coolant. If the water pump is indeed bad what can I expect at the Toyota dealership cost wise?
