Prius (2004-09) :: Beep And Warning Message After Brake Recall Fix
10 days ago I bought my '05 Prius to the dealership to get the Brake Recall fix along w/ an oil change and inspection. Since then I took a road trip and put about 1,000 miles on. Two days ago, when pulling up to my house, I got a beep and warning message, since I was home I parked and decided to worry about it later.
The next morning the car turned on but would not move (crawled a bit forward and reverse but was basically dead). I checked the meaning of the warning light and its the Hybrid Systems Warning Light. From the information screen it appears the battery is drained and therefore electric motor won't function.
Of course I'm worried its the expensive battery dying on me but would this happen all at once or slowly over time? Unfortunately I'm at 117,000 mi so the system is out of warranty. My next thought was that something they had with the brake recall may have caused the problem (though it would seem odd it'd take 10 days to happen).
Prius (2010-12) :: Could DRL Stay On Even When The Headlights Off
I have a 2012 Prius and I like the DRL to stay on even when the Headlight are on or off. Currently if Headlights are turned on the DRL turns off and I would like the control to turn DRL on or off.

I have the 2012 Prius and wanted to know if there was a way to mod the DRL to stay on with the headlights?
Can I just run the DRL to the parking lights (tapping a wire from the DRL to the parking lights)? Will it pull too much volts?

In my 2015 T Spirit I use the Auto headlight feature but can't get my head around the customisable light sensitivity.
Headlights often stay on when it's full daylight but do I lower or raise the sensitivity to get them to go off earlier.
Prius (Gen 3) :: 2011 Started To Beep With Warning Light
I have 15 months old 2011 prius II. This morning while driving, suddenly the orange warning triangle with exclamation sign in the center went on above the READY sign on the left side of the display. Car started to beep. On the right side, the hybrid system indicator menu disappeared, the the sign appeared saying KEY DETECTED IN THE CAR.
The car was running fine. It was going on for 2-3 min, then went back to normal. A few minutes later the same thing happened again. This cycle continued 5-6 times during my 30mi drive. I tried to restart the car at the traffic light, but that did not solve anything.
My second car key is with my relative out of town. Is this just the battery in the remote dying ( I still have the original)? Could it be something with the car? I am busy at work and would prefer not to go to the dealer now if not necessary, but will if I have to.

2006 ~80K miles. Occasional beep sounds, once accompanied by lcd screen displaying word "PROBLEM." I stopped switching off vehicle.

I have a 2001 prius jap import. On a trip it beeped and up came the triangle, check engine light and car with !. The car lost all power and the engine stalled when I pulled over. I plugged in my obd2 scanner and no codes except 3000. Took it to our local toyota dealer who confirmed that code. Had the battery swapped out and still it does the same except now no codes. The car has below normal pickup speed and I can hear the engine rev a little but it does not seem to make any difference. Seems all the power comes from the battery. It will stall when all the error lights come on.

Prius (Gen 2) :: Intermittent Loss Of Headlights With No Warning
I have the dreaded intermittent loss of headlights with no warning. My diagnosis has confirmed that I have failing HID lamps and that I am beyond coverage by Toyota or the dealer. I have bought replacement (Philips DR4) lamps and have tried to replace them.
The first time, I tried to replace the driver's side by removing the fuse panel cover and relays, but I could not get the round, rear cover off the headlight assembly.
The second time, I tried to un-attach the top of the bumper to remove the headlight assembly, but I was foiled because the two philips-head screws holding the rubber bumpers and the top of the airfoil to the radiator frame were frozen solid. I have tried to PB-Blast them, but no luck so far. I am considering cutting them off and drilling out the remaining screw body, but I am afraid I can't get replacements. Besides, I really don't don't want to make this a bigger job than it already is.
Prius (2010-12) :: TPMS Warning When Headlights On
Okay, this is a weird situation that I can't figure out. I haven't gone to the dealer yet, but I will have to before I hit 30,000 miles. (I'm at about 22,000 now) I thought I would pose this to the forum, for the interest, if nothing else.
A couple months ago, I replaced every lightbulb in the car (except for low and high beams) with LEDs from superbrightleds.com. They have worked wonderfully. I didn't install the new flasher module, however, because it's too hard to get to and I have no problem with the lights blinking fast.
Gen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: No Warning System If Forgot To Turn The Headlights Off
Just got a 2010 Prius model III and discovered that there is no warning system if you turn it off and get out forgetting to turn the headlights off.
Even my 1997 car chimed if I turned it off and opened the door with the lights still on.
Also, if only the parking lights are on there is no symbol on the dash indicating that.

Last week my 2008 Prius started making a faint beep each time I let up on the brake after a stop when I remove my foot off the brake. It also will make this faint beep when I let up on the brake even if the engine is not on. It is faint, nothing as loud as the beeps for seat belts or backup. The Prius is not experiencing any warning lights or any other noticeable problem and is running great.
View 6 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: 2006 - Beep And Red Triangle?
My 06 Prius with 130k miles just starting to briefly (1-2 seconds) show "PROBLEM" on the MFD and beep and sometimes show a red triangle.
This only happens when I am going down hill on a tight curve when going fast. This never happens going up hill (since I am generally going slower) nor on flat roads. Since this is my normal commute road and I have not changed the way I drive for several years, I am surprised that this is now occuring.
Some possible theories: oil is low - I will checksome level sensor is complaining? some tire rotation sensor is complaining?
Prius (2004-09) :: How To Make Car Beep On Lock
Is there any way to make my Prius beep on lock? I know some friends who own Prius and theirs do it, so it is doable. Is there any sequence of buttons you press on the remote that turns it on and off? I bought it used so I suspect that the previous owner turned it off or something.
