This car started and drove fine for a month. No warning lights. Red Triangle Light came and check engine light came on Onboard test showed 12 volt battery at 10.6 volts. Replaced the 12volt battery with a new Toyota battery The car started an ran fine with no warning lightsAfter about a minute the red light came back on but the car ran fine The hybrid battery indicator went from purple to green to blue showing six segments Shut off the car and the buzz that usually comes on at shutoff for a few seconds came on for about thirty seconds Now it will not start with brake engine vsc and red triangle light seen in the picture

You are going to have to get the trouble codes in order to begin to knowcwhere to look for the problems that is causing that.
It really could be a number of things from simple to major.
Get yourself a code reader. It isca useful tool to have as a car owner, or go to a parts store or mechanic to have the codes read.

To just get the car starting again try disconnecting the 12v battery for a few minutes and reconnecting. That will reset ECUs.

Either way your going to have to read the codes in order to knowcwhats going on.

I was able to clear the error code and start the engine within Dr Prius app
