    My combustion engine keep running all time. I have check engine light on and it said check hybrid .

    Is it because the inverter or water pump.

    Without those codes, it's impossible to tell.

    Make sure you take it to a place that can read all the Prius hybrid codes. Not every scanner can do that.
