Toyota estima hybrid warning light

[Oliver Leach]

On my Toyota estima hybrid a red warning light with a picture of a car and a exclamation mark through it came on today would anyone be able to tell me what it means as the handbook that I have for it is in Japanese and i can't understand it.

I had the same ,l was installing a USB and turned the car on to see if it worked , because a door was open it came up till l shut the door , and it emitted an annoying sound , till you push the door light pin in , or make sure the key fob remote is close to you, or the car start button may have to be pushed again( and foot on the brake ) to make the cars ignitinition system turn on for driving or for radio ( no foot on brake ) only so to speak     lm still learning too, and 12.3 litres per 100 is the best im getting , so curious to what you will get if you can let me know , a little far from 5-6 litres l was  told it would get 😂....and mine is a 2014 model G spec 2.4 litre

My Estima hybrid also is displaying the Red car with exclamation mark symbol. The handling has also gone funky and the hybrid drive system is disabled. I'm booked in to get it looked at.

OK according to the car dealers' mechanic the scan revealed some of the hybrid cells had failed (no further detail provided). The mechanic cleared the fault codes and then sent me to their recommended hybrid Battery specialist (who was upset the fault-codes were cleared). Waiting for quote for hybrid Battery replacement. Because the fault-codes have been cleared the check-engine light and red exclamation symbol is off, and the hybrid drive is re-enabled, and the car is driving normally (for the time-being).
