Hi Folks, I have a 2020 Camry Hybrid LE with 38,000 miles and it has ZERO power. I was able to open the door with the remote, and open the trunk by pushing the inside access button. When I tried to start the car, I was a little quick to push the start button before I hit the brake and I noticed...

Own and drive cars for long enough, and you'll end up needing one sooner or later. A battery boost or jump-start, that is. An empty battery in your car can come from far too many reasons, from a battery nearing the end of its life to somebody accidentally leaving the dome light on. Whatever the...

Hello All, I just topped off my 2012 Hybrid XLE with some unleaded from a jerrycan. When I tried starting, the dash was flashing some error. After trying starting a couple times, the battery is completely dead and I can't even get an OBDII read on it. Did I ruin my car?? Any help is immensely...

This will be the fourth time bringing in my 2020 Corolla. The battery keeps dying if it sits over a week. Last time they put in a new battery. That was just a couple months ago. That one is dead. They are going to give it ANOTHER update- again. But I don't trust that. Is it MY car or are ALL...

2020 Hybrid. Dead battery. Electric parking brake engaged. Can't roll car out of garage to jump start. I did pop the little cover and move the shifter to neutral. How do I get the car out of my garage so I can reach it with my jumper cables? Note: I didn't check to see if there was a way to open...

My wife’s 2006 Solara convertible has had a parasitic drain since we bought it 5 years ago (Low mileage, beautiful condition). I have made several attempts at finding the problem but until yesterday the battery would only last about 10 days. I started with the “usuaL” ( just google parasitic...

I have a 2017 Highlander with the Auto Start/Stop. Currently, it will sometimes go completely dead while in park or when idling, like at a stop light. Completely dead meaning zero electricity - no lights, no ability to unlock doors, no ability to roll down windows, nothing. This will last 2...

If I forget to turn off the hazard lights overnight, will that cause a dead battery on my 2008 Corolla? Same question about the lights on the rear view mirror. Thanks, Mark

So this morning (very dark) my car's battery was drained because of a front and rear camera. I wanted to jump start it for some reason I looked at the + on the positive terminal and still ended up putting the wrong booster cable (Yes. I'm a moron). Now the car is pretty much dead. Only the...

I was hoping to see is anyone could help me figure out what the issue with my car is. Every so often, my car won't start. But it has nothing to do with the battery. I'll try to unlock my car and all of the alarms will start to go off and won't start until I put my key in the engine. Then...

I recently purchased a 2001 Solara. Before test driving the battery was dead. Dealer gave it a jump start and Test Drive went well except for the fact the Radio, Toyota-JBL radio-cd-cassette, wouldn't power on. Dealer put a new battery in for me before I picked up the car, but hadn't been...

I have a 2007 Camry SE 4C. 104K miles on the clock and no issues until now. The car has never been in the shop. I do my own work, which amounts to oil changes and I replaced the pads a few weeks ago. Yeah over 100k on the original pads and still at 30%. About a month ago I took a freeway...

I have recently bought an 08 Matrix. After the car failed to start one morning, I checked the battery drain with the car sitting as it would overnight. I measured that the battery was using 200 milliamps. In a toyota post that I read, it said that between 30 and 50 milliamps was the proper...

Hey guys So I was taking my girlfriend out to dinner, we've hopped in the car and I've turned the key, Zip nada nothing. Reds were weak, doors wouldn't lock properly, the alarm sounded like it was going through puberty and my car wouldn't start. (This car has always started first time and I've...

tl;dr: slightly ajar door will drain battery in three days I just started driving someone's 2000 Camry CE and twice now it's failed to start due to a low battery (~11.6V). Auto Zone's battery/alternator/charging meter shows everything is fine, battery is new, and after a jump start and 20 mins...

If you're mechanically or electrically inclined and have a multimeter (and have a hybrid), then I need your help trying to figure out why the Highlander Hybrid is so prone to chew up 12V batteries (I just installed my fourth one in four years in my 2007 HH after I left my car parked in my garage...
