Car won’t star and when it star malfunction message

[Rick97]

Hi,

I went in my Tacoma 2024 hybrid, want to star it but it won’t, it was telling me EPB problem.

I wait and after 30 minutes it starts but 3 malfunctions messages appeared .

I attached the pictures of the messages.

Anyone hear about it?

Is the engine cranking? Usually I like to start with the 12v battery system and go from there. Not saying that's the issue, but most electrical problems stem from that. Could be low on charge or have a corroded terminal.

The dealership is at 4 hours road trip and 2 hours ferry, so I take like a day to go there (that’s the nearest)
The car seems to work but still display the malfunctions, I saw on internet that yes it was cause by the 12v battery, and that they should disappeared after a few ride. I hope.

The 12v battery went low only because I was cleaning my sunroof and forgot the accessories mode for 30 minutes! That pretty bad

Glad it's OK !!
I was going to post a funny - but did not. I'd be sure. while it's under warranty and your lonnng distance to the Dealer that it REALLY IS fixed. If NOT call the dealer for a tow - I bet they fix that fast !!
