    I've been having problems with my 2004 for a while. Over the past couple days I have replaced the hybrid battery pack and the 12 volt battery. When I press the foot brake and the power button still nothing but all the lights come on. This is getting to be very frustrating and expensive. I've done the procedure where you hit the power button twice and still all the lights are on. Any ideas are appreciated.

    I would start by reading the trouble codes with a Prius appropriate scanner and posting them here.
    You could load test the12 volt and make sure the orange safety plug was reconnected correctly using the full three steps and make sure the brake lights come on when you step on the brake.
    Did you install a new oem Toyota battery?
    Can you give us a little history on the car and why you replaced the batteries?
