    Welcome to PriusChat!!

    You could be missing some additional DTCs, which OBD2 scanning device are you using to retrieve the above DTC ?

    If might be time to upgrade your arsenal to include a mini-vci cable and techstream.

    I had corrosion on my pins coming out of the back of my Gen1 HV battery. I cleaned off the corrosion and the "lost communication error" went away.
