read it .
and the warning lights.
exclamation point? there are 3
1st is..bad brakes. red.
2nd is. same but yello.
3: See multi-information display.

3B: add fuel, waring, it will say?

youd have to read the whole book to see very multi-info message
and i refuse, you do it. or lean to look carefully and post all errors.


Testimonial: "I did read my owners manual, but there was no concrete resolution for it and since this occurred on a Sunday I was unable to go to toyota service department. The guy at auto zone took some guesses but I knew he didn't know when he told me the display screen going orange and green when driving is bad (it's not that is what it is suppose to do). He has ran my computer and it came back that everything was fine. The light didn't remain on and only flashed. Toyota said the reason was I was extremely low on oil (the Prius does not have an oil lamp light) they said no leak and engine not burning so I may want to speak to people who did my last oil change. I may not know about cars but I am more then capable of reading my manual, which I did. I take excellent care of my car and that is why after that light flashed I immediately went to autozone since toyota wasn't open. I came to this sight because I was nervous and had heard there was a recall that may affect the light, (it didn't) and wanted to see what others said about this. Toyota informed me that light could mean many different things."

    letting AZ touch a prius, is a scary thing, this is a very complex car , hybrid. check your oil at every 2nd fuel fillup if ok skip to 3rd, learn YOUR cars oil consuption. and lear that waring light, learn how to read the complex dash of lights.. my guess is the hand brake was left on??? but the color of the lamp tells that. or you wiggle the lever , ah, it was up 1 click darn. Do not drive any car with the brake waring lights on, period that is what to book said. and its true. the color matters and the hand brake, ever check brake fluid levels, it too trips this warning, why not check ALL levels. just to be sure... we all do this, or suffer the consiqunces, danger or a burned up engine. toyota is right. many different things, if i had this car (not me , ever) id get a scan tool and keep in the car and scan it at all errors seen. or spend rest of life what is going on, and short leash to toyota. it is complex this car, bar none. the more things there , the more things to break or go intermittant. your best solution now is learn how to read the multi-information display. or join a prius forum for far better help... but they wil ask the same questions i did, which of the 3 glowed.?

SOURCE: Toyota Prius 2001 Warning Light With Exclamation Mark on a car.

I had the same problem. I removed the relays from the fusebox under the bonnet/hood (top left side) and then replaced them. All working OK now. Sometimes I have had a problem when I start the car (especially after rainy day) the petrol engine immediately dies and I can only drive in electric. I have found that if I turn the ignition off and then restart it and immediately pump the accelerator it makes the engine run OK. Hope this helps.

SOURCE: What is lower right most warning light on dash for '06 Tundra?

42dd5aa.gif This is for tire pressure. Tires on the truck must have dropped below 30 PSI. Air them up and check the spare tire pressure and the light should go out. :)

SOURCE: yellow warning light on dashboard looks like

You have a low tire. Toyota Solaras and other Toyotas have tire sensor monitors. Go to a gas station and check the air on all of your tires including the spare. Once you get to the recommended pressure, you should be fine.

SOURCE: 09 toyota camry...warning light is

Hello. Welcome to FIxYa. Please allow us to assist you.

The ( ! ) light is your Low TIre Pressure warning light. This indicates that you have a low tire, or combination of tires that are not at the factory specified inflation presure..

We would recommend that you get the tire pressures inflated to the factory specs; the specs are on the driver side door opening area

Toyota Prius 2003 Warning light has a car with exclamation point in the middle of it plus a triangle with an exclamation point. Has no power when I accelerate.

My 2003 warning light frequently goes on after going down a long hill. The dealer has tested, and thinks that it is related to the traction battery being overcharged or overheated after a long hill. Doesn't seem to affect performance and the the problem clears up after turning the car on and off several times. If you have no power when you accellerate, it suggests that the electric motor has cut out some how, until the problem is cleared up. Would be interested in finding out what your solution was.
