    What do you mean by it won’t start? No READY? Can you turn it to ACC or IGN-ON? Can you turn on the headlights? If nothing works you likely just have a bad/empty 12V battery.

    Pulling the white stuff Steve talked about wasn't for the fault you're complaining about. Its for conservatively determining the state of health(SOH) of a Prius HV battery.

    Disconnnecting the white plug was only going to clear the SOC recorded on the battery ECU.

    If there isn't ACC on, you don't ha e any business tempering with the HV service plug. Its way too dangerous to meddle in there.

    In my opinion, yeah, you've got a fusible link at the hiid area, close to the inverter assembly. Pop the cover out, and check the fuses with a DVM set to continuity, while aux battery-ve is diaconnected, and do a continuity test. You can also use a test lamp as well.

    Check relays too.

    When you're done with the hood, ride on to the driver side kick panel. Check the fuses there too.

    Have you also checked the fuse on the positive battery terminal, whether its burnt?

    What you're facing kinda sounds like a loss of power problem.
