    The yellow check engine light came on...then the check ev system in yellow. Then a bunch of light and it won't start. Someone ran a code machine and it cited the H20 pump? Is there a system / battery shut down that overrides the car and keeps it from starting? IMG_20240408_083325392.jpg

    Technically there are many.

    Somebody is going to have to connect to the onboard diagnostic system and ask the car what it thinks is preventing the car from going into READY mode.

    You can get inexpensive bluetooth devices and smartphone apps that can do this on your own. Some are better than others. There is a thread on this board with details, but I do not keep current on the results.

    Probably the hybrid battery if it has not been replaced. Or maybe the inverter, i suspect 1 of the 2.
