P3004High-voltage power source fault (hybrid inverter)

  • Toyota/Lexus code · Hybrid system
  • Turns on the check-engine light
How the car detects it
A fault inside the hybrid inverter, the unit that converts battery power for the electric motors. On 2010-2014 Prius and 2012-2014 Prius v, Toyota names this code (alone or with P0A94 and P0A1A) as a sign of a failed power module in the inverter, covered by an extended warranty; check with a Toyota dealer. The car usually goes into a fail-safe mode with reduced power. A hybrid warning shows the system protecting itself; if the car limits power or won't go into READY, stop somewhere safe and get help.
