    Hi folks.
    My prius threw up some lovely dashboard lights today and when I checked the Dr. Prius app there were no engine codes or hybrid battery codes. There was just a message at the bottom of the screen saying 'resethead error broken pipe'..(I've added pics of that message and of the dashboard lights).
    I've looked online but have no idea what this means. I don't have my good OBD2 diagnostic tool at home atm either. I just wondered if anyone had any idea what this could be.
    Thanks

    The Dr Prius app is very limited with what trouble codes it is able to read. Try downloading and installing the "Car Scanner ELM OBD2" app.
