on that screen push "Energy" That will tell you where the energy is. there are arrows that will tell you if charge is going or coming from the battery. the 0 to 30 min sections is a graph of miles per gallon over the past 30 min, in 5 min sections. There is no info on charging there. Where did you get this car in a non-working condition?
ok i did not know how it work that you very much nowi i know where i am looking at i got it off a insurence sawl i did not know if it was work or how many miles it had wich is not good but i have it allready so i need to figue it out i think the batt is to low to start the car i am not shure it sho w one bar on batt blue so i am not shure as far as i know it will not turn the engine just some time if you konow anything abou t codes it has a p 3125 wich i belive it has to do with fuel thank you for letting me know
For this kind of car, it is important to remember that it takes a few seconds from when you turn the key to the engine starting. One bar is better than none on the battery. It should try to start the engine. Take it to a toyota dealer, they can at least give you an estimate for repair. This will not be an easy thing to repair by yourself.
ok i will keep that in mind when i try to start it some tike is will try some time it will not i will rake it to see if the havea estimate for it maybe if i can get some kind of repair book i am pretty handy at fixing thing juat never hada prius i do not know how it shoul dwokr thank you again if you know any wear to get a book let me know
Please see: http://home.earthlink.net/~graham1/MyToyot...PriusFrames.htm Go to "Understanding the Prius" and then "Making Sense of the Displays" I'd also suggest checking in with http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/Prius_Techinical_Stuff/ for information on repairing your vehicle. (Self-charging of the HV battery is not a good idea. Even a very experienced automotive person nearly burned down his house by overcharging his Prius' battery... Best to just get the gasoline engine working again, and let it do the work.)
