Question about 2001 Toyota Prius

I briefly disconnected y battery yesterday and

I briefly disconnected my battery yesterday and then jump started it (I'd left the interior light on). 70 miles later a whole bunch of warning lights came on namely PS-power steering, main battery and hybrid.
I then drove a further 70 miles:
What damage might I hgave done to my car driving afterwards/ do I absolutely have to go to a Toyota diagnostics thing and how can I manage/ minimise costs?

Some other garages can diagnose this problem m8 but its not wise as there not used to the system there gonna charge about 70pound to look at it, how old is the car? it might still be under warrenty, it should not have done to much damage though.

Do you want to rebuild your Toyota Prius hybrid battery? This Guide would also be a good investment for the future. Hybrid batteries have a limited life span of 8 years or 150,000 miles on average. So if your car hasn't had a bad battery yet you can be expecting it soon as the 8 year mark is coming up on all 01'-03' Prius.

Bought new battery. morning vuka don't want to start. mornings I had to jump start it 0km still refuse to start on its own

Probably something draining the battery overnight. Interior light left on? The regulator in the alternator could be bad and keeping the ignition energized draining the battery. If your jump start it drive to work get off work and it starts after 8-9 hrs you have a system voltage leak some where. If nothing is left on overnight have the voltage regulator tested in the alternator.

Disconnect the battery negative cable, charge the battery for a few hours, test the battery voltage, should be above 13+ volts, reconnect the battery, the car should start

06 trailblazer will turn over but not start

I would assume you know how old the battery is

Charged it

Tested it

Dangerous practice jumping a dead battery

Your vehicle & all those made after 1996 are not
to be jumped

You disconnect the battery to test or charge

Jumping can ruin the electronics & cause all sorts of issues

2000 Chrysler Sebring w/year old battery. Advise, what could have occurred when AAA jump me??? Left tiny interior light on under my mirror--battery dead. After AAA came, I let it run

I doubt the service person did anything wrong. In today's cars with both engine and body computers, jump starting a car can be risky.
You're better off having the battery charged for an hour or so then trying to start it.
You may have to have the body computer scanned and possibly flashed to get everything working again. The body computer controls everything you mentioned. It could have lost some of the factory programming when the system was dead.

The battery is under the rear seat on the passengers side.Just make sure and disconnect the ground first when removing the battery and connect the ground last after installing the new one.Hope this helps.Good luck.Let me know if you have anymore questions.

Daytime running lights don't come on 96 chevy 1500 not switch at parking brake or fuse

I had this issue with my 1999 C1500. I had to jump my truck a couple of times, because I left the inside light on and I found when I did this my daytime running lights worked briefly. I wondered why, but didn't give it much thought. I had to replace my battery a couple of months ago and my daytime running lights started working all the time. Even though my battery would start my vehicle, run the interior components, etc., it didn't have enough voltage for the daytime lights. Check your battery voltage under a load, see if it helps.
