    Hi so why not take it into a Toyota dealer as they will diagnose any faults far cheaper than any auto zone or any other idiots. the fact is it is a TOYOTA Product they need to know as it should be covered by the Warranty if there is an issue. so only Toyota should be touching it otherwise the warranty becomes VOID.

    It happens to Prius' sometimes in car washes. Especially ones with a few years on them. The engine usually fires up and starts charging the battery normally once you're out of the wash.

    You got something wet that didn't want to be wet. Give it a chance to dry out.
