Why Get Codes?
Check Hybrid System, VSC, ABS Lights Illuminating?
Check Hybrid System Message: This message is Generic and will display if anything is going wrong that causes the hybrid system to shut down. The root cause could range from an engine issue to an abs issue to a failing hybrid battery or inverter. Unfortunately there are no combination of lights that specifically tell you the hybrid battery has failed. The only way to tell what’s going on is to get the diagnostic trouble codes.
How Do I get Codes?
Get it Scanned: Use an OBD-II scanner capable of reading hybrid codes. Auto Parts stores usually do this for free. If you prefer diy we recommend using the Kingbolen EDiag Elite Scanner.
Check the 12V Battery: A weak 12V battery can cause erratic hybrid system readings. This can be checked at the Auto Parts store while your there having the codes checked.
Replace or Repair: Please share all the codes present that way we can recommend the right solution to get your car back on the road.
