Advice needed to get Hybrid battery going. Long story short this was my daily driver until I hit a deer, smashed in the front. Bungeed the hood and drove few more weeks. One day noticed smoke from engine, I shut it off and checked. Saw nothing but from that point car wouldn’t recognize the key. Very odd. After months of experimenting and back and forth (changed inverter pump (twice) and am2 fuse and fob battery) the car now recognizes the key and at least tries to start (with jump, bc in all this time I killed the 12v) but now I get the triangle and p0afa and p3000. I have to clear the codes before trying to start and when I do I get a flashing ready (not steady ready) and I hear only one click from the rear (the contactors) not multiple as is normally the case. I understand there is now an issue with the hv battery and I have a Green Bean with lifetime warranty but I can only imagine what the tech will think showing up to find a car smashed in the front with dead 12v and new inverter pump and a car that appears not to have driven in months. I am trying to NOT void this warranty. 2007 prius. Wondering best next steps.
Well you've already ruined the car by hitting the deer so.. me grid charging the battery trying to get the engine to crank or . Just because I want to. I don't really care what they might think. I know with these companies they're going to not do much of anything and try to get out of everything if at all possible better to deal with private folks.
