Separate names with a comma.
Yep. Original post apparently stumped all those that had seen it, so was trying to get fresh eyes on it.
At this point I think a mouse having chewed something is a possibility. Right now I'm leaning toward that, ECU issue, or Hybrid battery. But have...
The CM items do not work, but neither do other display items like no Maint reqd, check engine, TMPS, ABS, key in car, airbag, or Triangle of death...
Where would the fuse be? It just looks a plastic orange plug. Does it have to be taken apart?
I guess I'm not sure what or where the "safety fuse for the hybrid traction pack" is. But if it's the fusible link in the engine compartment fuse...
12V was determined as good by several methods. Took it to Auto Zone for testing. Swapped it with a battery from a working 2008 Prius - the working...
2008 sat unattended in garage for 2 weeks. On return it would not start or go into ACC. Dash is dead. Could this be a hybrid battery gone dead? If...

Update. Took the 12V battery to be tested and it tested OK, This matches the fact that the headlights, horn, and interior lights work just fine....
Thanks but none of those are the problem in my case.
Well the battery I would be swapping into the car with the problem is coming from a car that is working just fine right now. So the swapping...
OK thank for the detailed and thorough info. I'm lucky in that I have another 2008 Prius that is working just fine. So I will swap batteries and...
