HV Control Computer/ help please!

Yesterday I had 3 lights come on. They master warning light, the check engine light and the hybrid system warning light. Since I live in south Alabama and the hybrid system warning light came on, I was forced to drive my Prius (2008, 117k miles) to the dealership. It drove fine, but it did seem like the battery wasn't charging as well as usual.

After calling the dealership a million times and getting the worst customer service ever, they finally told me that I need 2 new computers and may still need a hybrid battery. They said I needed the HV Control Computer and another one. (I just left a message to see if they would tell me model numbers and more details.) They quoted me $2077.59! They said one computer is $880.81 and another is $430.87, plus 5 hours of service. They would have to order parts from south FL. They said I definitely need both computers.

HELP!
Can anyone tell me which 2 computers I need?
Does anyone know model numbers?
Can I really order these used parts on ebay? (Some start at $19.99!)
Will Toyota put the used parts I order in for me?
Does anyone know of a mechanic in south Alabama that works on Priuses/Pri?

If you can answer any of these questions I would greatly appreciate it.

 

I called a junk place in closest bigger city near me, but they said they rarely get a Prius. Looks like there are a ton on ebay that may just take 4 days to get shipped.
One of the dealerships said they would put used parts in, but they don't recommend it b/c the labor hours are so expensive. Just them saying that makes me think they would make it not work, even if it did, just to rip me off. (I may sound paranoid, but young ladies (and young men, too, of course) can get ripped off around here. There aren't a lot of options. Only dealerships know how to work on hybrids in my area. We are little behind on the times.)

Probably about 2-3 years ago.

 

Thanks, everyone. So I just grabbed my car. I'm getting a 2nd opinion and maybe a 3rd. It drove decent. Going to take it to the bigger city's dealership. They agreed that it is rarely a computer problem.
Does anyone know of a search engine where you can find mechanics capable of working on hybrids? I know it sounds silly but everywhere I've called said they do not have the technology and don't know anyone else who does. I'm asking people that I (and friends) trust.

 

I know they aren't emerging technology. Haha. There are 4 Toyota dealerships within the area. Each are about 45 min to an 1 away from each other. Didn't really want to drive that far, but should be fine. My car is running. I just wish I could find a local, independent mechanic here that works on Priuses. I have tried for years. Friends of mine have, too. I'm obviously not mechanically inclined or tech savvy. I know I'm a newb.

 

Thanks for great advice.

When I got to other Toyota dealership, service rep I was speaking with was gone for the day. The guy that was there said that since the lights are now off, he can't get the codes. He said since it drove fine, I should just keep driving it until warning lights come on again. He sent me home. ? Oh well. At least I only wasted $129 instead of $2k. I hope I don't break down on the side of the road...& I hope those computers last longer.
If anyone knows this code, P0AC0, feel free to respond.
Thanks again, everyone!

 

Wow, same exact code & they wanted to sell me new computers.
