2010 Prius sideswipe accident now when trying to start it says check hybrid systems

probably the airbags, but there may be other damage

 

Do you have an OBD reader? Scan the car with Dr Prius app to actually see the issue

 

Hey, did you ever figure out what was wrong with it?

 

when airbags deploy... you need to have a new srs module thats under the center console replaced or reprogrammed in order to drive the vehicle. After my accident, I bought a used one and now working to clear the original module and keep it in the car with me in case something happens again and the bags deploy, ill be able to swap the module and continue driving.

 

Does the airbag module stop the combustion engine from starting? My hybrid engine starts to ready and drives, but combustion engine doesn't, still has Check Hybrid Engine on the screen. Could it be caused by the Airbag srs module due to the crash?

 

time to scan the trouble codes

 

Yes, this is why once i get around to getting what i need to reset the old unit.. I plan to keep it in the car incase an accident where air bags deploy occurs, I won't need to have the vehicle towed.

 

Thanks, my VCI cable for Techstream arrived, i cleared the code via the PC software and the engine started.
I guess Dr Prius and Carista or Car Scanner couldn't clear it. Because each time i clear with those, it comes back instantly. But Techstream cleared it and engine started.

NOTE: Only steering and knee airbag got deployed

 

do you mind sharing which cable you purchased?

did you have to replace any crash sensors?
