    I have a 2009 Prius with 147k miles. It keeps blowing the AM2 fuse. I already did the Inverter pump disconnect test and still blows the fuse. I also hooked up two other inverter pumps and still blows the fuse. I put a 30 amp fuse in there and I get dash lights but no engine start and I get ready mode for maybe a half of a second then back off it goes.. I plan on changing the inverter next to see if that's what the problem is. with 30 amp fuse in and dash lights on I get codes U0100 P3000 C1310 C 1259. Anyone else ever deal with this problem?

    I am very familiar with the Prius. I have the Hybrid orange plug seated correctly. Ive checked all other fuses they are fine. The 12volt battery is new and charged, I also keep a jump pack on when attempting to power it on. If I have a 15 amp fuse in the AM2 slot, the fuse instantly blows right when the power button is pressed.

    I am very familiar with the Prius.

    Have you reviewed the wiring diagram to determine all the loads supplied by the AM2 fuse? It supplies quite a bit more than just the ICWS. I think there may even be an old post here somewhere for that. hmm..that thread may have been for the DOME fuse. regardless, a wiring diagram needs to be in your future or you're probably going to spend a lot of time chasing your tail.

    Hello Saviorcrash, I am having similar symptoms after I assumed the inverter pump burnt up due to heavy mountain driving. I replaced the pump, and the AM2 fuse continues to blow, even with the pump unplugged... What did you ultimately find as a solution? I am starting to think it is possible that some of the wires somewhere else on the AM2 circuit are shorting or perhaps the Integration Relay C (82641-47020) that the AM2 fuse is located on is failing somehow.

    Any info you can provide would be greatly appreciated in helping me find a fix!

    How did you fix it? I'm getting the same codes (U0100, P3000, C1259, C1310), but my AM2 fuse is fine.

    You have more codes that just those, so whatever scanner you are using cannot read all the Prius' ECUs.

    Here is a thread that reviews several scanners and their capabilities.

    U0100 is lost comms with the ECM, so I suspect you have a power supply issue with power arriving at the ECM. Have you checked all the fuses for continuity with an ohmmeter?
