I changed the brakes to my car one day thru a mechanic and reset the dash. Then after a few days the car threw all these lights on my dash suddenly and slowly felt the car start to behave differently and slip and such. Then the car just stopped moving normally and lost 60-70% of its power and it’s been like this since. Not sure what happened but I assumed the inverter pump went bad since there was no movement in the resovoir.

I recently replaced the inverter coolant pump on my 2004 Prius. After putting everything back together and topping off the coolant, I tested the system in READY mode and was ready to bleed it, but the reservoir doesn’t show any movement and the pump only makes noise without actually circulating coolant. My battery jumps quickly from one tick to two and sometimes charges up but doesnt show arrows as its “charging” but when I put it in accessory mode, it drops really quickly. the gas engine sometimes sounds different and stops charging the battery altogether. I have the master warning triangle, VSC, brake system, hybrid system, and check engine lights all on, and the battery vent is running constantly. I even noticed some white smoke coming from the muffler after the first test.

I’ve tried squeezing the inlet hose manually, running the car in accessory and READY mode, and nothing. I haven’t driven it yet because I know it could overheat the inverter. 

I don’t know what’s happening but any advise would help.

New installed inverter pump but no movement in resovoir or flow for bleeding.
