    All fuses good and 12v was disconnected for 5-20 minutes each time I made an attempt to start, the trip count did not reset though so I'm thinking maybe not long enough? I called it a night, its 3am here so it will sit disconnected while I get a few hours of sleep.

    Last thing to check is your remote battery on your key chain that the immobilizer works, beyound that you may just need to tow it to the dealer. If all else fails.

    The car goes into accessories so I assume that's fine.

    If it still showing codes it might be best to get it properly diagnosed by toyota the hybrid system could be inoperable tell its sorted out. The other avenue is check out diyalldata for info but thats not gonna net much because toyota hybrid car repair info is kinda kept under lock and key from public viewing from what i have seen trying to reasearch my prius.

    Check the little wires on the bus bar, you most likely broke one of the sense wires or temperature wires

    So that day (about 2 weeks ago) I removed the battery and under close examination noticed one of the nuts were loose connecting one of the bus bars, so I tightened it.

    The car started, no codes, drove off and had no issues for approximately 300 miles

    Then code p0A80 comes up and car is relying more on gas and not performing, I figure as my last attempt that I check the battery fan to see if it could use a cleaning. I clear the code, remove and clean the fan, and now the car does not turn on again. There is no codes and it displays "check bybrid system".

    I beg of someone to either help me get this car running or get me far far away from it
