We have to go into the hybrid ECU first, then the hybrid battery, then the engine ECU and try to start the engine. Clear the codes in each, then attempt to start. It could store some various codes, but you will need to exit the troubleshooter and enter each of these modules in this order. So it needs a ready light to start if the customer drives the vehicle out of gas causing a no start condition after refuelling. It says: Hybrid vehicles may exhibit a no-ready light and it's a push-button start. Well I've got a problem start in the car, right, so we go in there and found a couple of different ones and this one caught my eye: Restart After Out Of Gas. We went to the engine troubleshooter and decided to look under symptom tips because I know they've got different types of tips in there, including Starting Problems. We were in the Engine system, so we went into engine and then we just popped right into troubleshooter. I'm going to walk you through what we did. We went in, checked for a couple of Functional Tests, and there wasn't anything therefore it so I said, well, while we're here, let's go into the troubleshooter and check and see if there's a tip on that. Let's just double check with your scanner.
I haven't really worked on too many of these hybrid cars before. I was already there helping them out with something else and they came over and asked me, hey, is there some sort of reset or relearn or something we need to do to finish this job to make this car start so we can get it out of here? The techs had already gone through and diagnosed the codes and repaired the problem with the accelerator, but the car still wouldn't start. It was towed in for a no-start, and it also had a couple of codes in there for the accelerator pedal having an issue.
One time when I was out in a shop, I encountered this really interesting issue with a Prius, much like this one.
