Prius (2001-03) :: Master Warning Light Came On - Car With Exclamation Point In It
Recently bought a 02 with 34 K, had been well maintained. Last night it wouldn't start so hubby jumped it (properly). Started right away, making him think that wasn't what it needed. Right after that, the Master Warning light came on, the Car with Exclamation Point in it (hybrid system warning light) and the check engine light. The car runs, but it did die, and I had to restart the car, then seemed to drive fine. We don't live near a Toyota dealer, would a regular mechanic be able to read the codes properly? What else should we consider? Should we drive the car?

2014 Santa Fe Sport 2.0T FWD / 16,000 miles. All fluids full / up-to-date
On two occasions we've had a warning light appear that is not the CEL. It's a triangle with an exclamation point in the middle of it. The first time, my wife called and told me about it and it only appeared for a few minutes and disappeared. I checked the codes and there were none--that was several months ago.
The second time it happened (a few weeks ago), I was driving on an interstate at 70 mph with the cruise control on. The aforementioned indicator light appeared for about two minutes and disappeared. I immediately called Hyundai Bluelink (within a minute) and asked them to look at the code history and they advised they couldn't see any indication of malfunctions. They further advised that indicator meant that maintenance was needed and that I should make an appointment with the dealer. I pushed them for more info, but the operator remained vague about what maintenance my Santa Fe required.
Why does it only illuminate for a few minutes?
Prius (2004-09) :: Master Warning Light / Red Triangle Exclamation Point And Check Engine Light Came On
My wife and I own a 2006 Toyota Prius that we bought used 2 years ago. a couple of days ago, the master warning light (red triangle exclamation point) and check engine light came on. I took it into the dealer and of course, our hybrid battery was dead - battery and a new ECU required.
Our car is at 99,000 and 32 days out of warranty. Went down the road to atlanta hybrid repair. they were incredibly nice, and said that my computer was fine, but the battery would need to be replaced.
Camry 2012+ :: 2015 Low On Battery - Warning Light (orange Triangle With Exclamation Point)
I just noticed this morning that the "warning" light (orange triangle with exclamation point) is on in the Multi Info Display in the middle of the dash ONLY when the engine is off. I scrolled to it and it says "check charging system" with the battery logo. When i turn the engine on, the warning light goes away.
The battery logo does not light up where the gauges are. Does this mean the battery is okay? Its confusing and the manual does not clear it up.
Am I correct in assuming that I'm low on battery only if the battery logo lights up where the gauges are? I have no issues when starting the engine or anything.

I am getting a 3006,3011,3015 code from my 2001 prius. The car only has 56k miles on it but sat for 8 months without starting or unplugging the batteries. I am wondering if i need to replace bank 1 and 5 on the battery to get the engine light off? The car runs fine and drives great but engine light is on and the triangle exclamation point is on but that's it for lights. What do i need to do? Replace battery altogether? recharge the effected banks?

My wife's Prius now has the check engine light, the orange triangle, and the car with the exclamation point lit up. It only has 96,000 miles and hasn't been in a wreck that we know of. I've read that it has to do with the HV ECU, but I don't know much more about it. Is there any chance it's just a loose cable or something simple? It doesn't seem like her car should already be having so many extensive problems all at once. We haven't had any in the past, except the car with the exclamation point came on for a few days and then went away on its own.
Codes: P1636, P3106, P3002, P3006. It's a 2002 Prius
Prius (2004-09) :: Exclamation Point Triangle Light Flash When Coming To A Sudden Stop And Emit A Beep
My 2008 Prius has approximately 116,000 miles on it, about 8,000 miles ago, I put on a Mobil 1 Extended Performance filter and 5W 30 Mobil 1 Extended Performance Full Synthetic Oil. Over the past week, My "Exclamation Point Triangle Light" (Not sure what it's called) has flashed a couple of times when coming to a sudden stop and the car would emit a "beep".
My first assumption was low brake fluid, but today when I got home and checked the fluids, I found the oil to be approximately 1.5 quarts low... I have not noticed any leaks under the car (I park in the same spot at work daily), and haven't noticed any smoke coming from the rear...
What the problem might be? Is it possible I might have damaged the engine by driving on such low oil for an unknown period of time (guessing a couple of weeks or so)? I used to religiously check the oil in all my vehicles, but have gotten out of the habit on later model vehicles...
Prius (Gen 2) :: 2004 Exclamation Point Came On And Beeped
A while ago I lost my second FOB for my 04 Toyota Prius. I ordered a new one online and it arrived.
Before starting the process I got inside and tried turning the car on with the original key but all that happened was the Key with an exclamation point came on the dashboard and beeped for about 5 seconds.
The manual said that this means, "the smart key was not in the effective range."
I inserted the original key into the key slot but the same thing happened. This also happened when I put the key next to the power button and pressed on. I double checked to make sure the SKS button below the steering wheel was not pushed in. I tried all of this again with the new FOB away from the vehicle and a couple days later.
Same result.

View 3 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: Low Oil - Red Triangle With Exclamation Point
My Prius has about 145K miles on it and use it on a daily 130 mi round trip commute. Recently, a I got a Red Triangle w/ Exclamation Point and the displayed showed "Problem". I took the car to the dealership and they stated the problem was caused from a low oil level. The dealership changed the oil and I was good to go. 3k miles later, I got the same error and noticed my oil level was low once again. It seems that my Prius is burning oil at rate of 1 quart per 2500 miles driven. What can be causing this? Are there any remedies I can try before changing out the piston rings?
View 19 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: Red Triangle And Little Car With Exclamation Point On MFD
I am getting the red triangle and the little car with exclimation point on the MFD. Interestingly all of the amber lights are on and the brake light is on BUT the parking brake is not set.
Here is what happened --my hybrid battery died a few weeks ago so I ordered a replacement through Summit Racing (Dorman Battery). The car started and drove but I had to rest codes to keep it alive (just to get it home). Last moved it 3 weeks ago and removed the old battery.
So long story short -- while I was waiting for the new battery I repaired some other issues -- BTW I am not new to this, I have the tools and have done these repairs on conventional cars many times.
1. Leaking axle seals -- replaced L and R seals
2. replaced L and R half axles (drivers side was rough so replaced both)
3. Found drivers side wheel bearing to be rough so replaced L and R hubs
4. Replaced L and R struts and strut mounts.
5. Drained and refilled trans axle with Toyota W (TF) 4 qts
6. Installed new 12v battery (currently producing 13.4v)
7. Replaced rear struts.
8. Replaced L and R front rotors and shoes -- they were off anyway so why not. No loss of fluid!
9. Removed and cleaned most interior parts -- door panels, seats etc...
Installed new HV battery and fired her up to the usual wheezing, whining and clicking sounds. But NO engine -- just the triangle -- problem statement and and the other above issues.
Checked the following -- inverter pump is circulating nicely, though maybe battery electronics -- so I placed the old battery back in (it was started with the old one 3 weeks ago) -- nope same issue so not those electronics. Traced all wires, plugs and connectors related to hybrid system -- all seem to be in place.
Prius (2004-09) :: Red Exclamation Point Upon Braking
I bought my Prius 9 weeks ago with 201k miles. It now has 214k on the odometer... that's right, 13,000 miles in just over 2 months. I love it. It's been problem free so far until last week when someone pulled out in front of me. I had to brake hard and when I did i got the red triangle exclamation point. No words, just the symbol.

Yesterday while running errands the exclamation point on the dash illuminated along with the ABS and VSC indicators. I haven't had my Prius for very long but I kind of expected it to happen at some point as I had done the test a few weeks after I bought it and found the resting voltage wasn't all that great but it wasn't causing problems at the time. Time To Replace The 12 Volt Battery...
View 16 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: Red Triangle With Exclamation Point When Turned Right At 20 Mph
The triangle comes on momentary for the past week. It first occurred when I turned right at 20 mph. The next time was during a sweeping left turn. Off and on with turns left and right. the last few times it was longer in different situations and I could read the LCD display where is said "PROBLEM".
The local dealer said check brake fluid and open and close all doors. Since it is more frequent I called my mechanic and he thinks it could be door sensors that have built up junk. The dealership does not think it is a safety issue and without any lights on their analyzer could not pull any codes.

I've read some similar posts but I havent found one with the same problem.
View 1 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: Red Triangle And Yellow Exclamation Point In A Circle
I have a 2007 Toyota prius base model, it has 49,845 miles. Today i got in, pressed the bake, pressed the on button, and the Red Triangle appeared with yellow exclamation point in a circle, and on the lcd monitor it shows that there is a problem and a little icon of a car with an exclamation point on it.
The car drives and runs normal, fuel mileage seems to be the same, everything looks normal except the lights. One thing I tried to do: I took off the battery clamp and i put it back on, the warning lights were gone, but as soon as the engine kicked in the same warning lights came on.
Prius (2001-03) :: Red Triangle Of Death With Exclamation Point, No Codes
I just acquired our second Prius, a beautiful 2002 (Gen1 in the USA) with 90k miles. On the dash, I get the red triangle of death with the exclamation point inside it. On the computer info screen, I have an icon of a car with an exclamation point in it and it reads "problem". I have connected the OBDII reader to it and it does not have any codes. Nothing in the history, or in the current or pending. The car has full power and runs fine, but has the stupid RTOD.
