Air conditioning goes on and off
One of the most common reasons for then the Ac compressor to shut off/down is a low freon level. Does it blow cold air while it is in operation? If the freon level is ok, you could also have a cycling switch failure. It would be uncommon for the compressor to operarte normally for a while and then not work properly if the freon level is adequate

Toyota Prius starting problem
There's a known problem with the early Toyota Prius (2001 - 2003), when running the engine for a long period of time without moving or when the car is driven only for short trips (short city driving), the Prius might not start.
You have to change the original battery with a 356 CCA which is bigger because the battery is bigger you also have to change what is holding it into place.

Heat sensor light keeps coming on
Hi Tony, Exactly what light are you referring to? There is 1) Engine coolant temperature. 2) Automatic transmission oil temp. 3) Catalytic converter temp. Regards John

Master warning light on my 2002 toyota prius
Not much you can do yourself without having diagnostic code information, you'll have to either go to a Toyota dealer or to a shop that has a diagnostic tool that can read code information from the engine computer as well as the hybrid system computers.

My windshield washer won't work.
Remove the wiper arms and the plastic cover under them, you then should be able to get to them. Or if the sprayers are on the hood remove the heat shield from the bottom side of the hood,to reach them. Any parts store carries the hose, I just purchased a roll of hose for 15 dollars at advanced auto, about 25 feet more than enough to replace it all.

My 2004 prius abs and brake light came on and the
well, a hard firm pedal, usually indicates a bad brake booster or a vacuum leak to booster or the vacuum check valve, on booster. TO TEST BRAKE BOOSTER; pump brakes several times with engine off to deplete stored vacuum. turn on engine with pushing slightly on pedal. you should feel the pedal fade away a bit and then become firm, but not hard. if you feel nothing at the pedal when engine starts the booster is at fault. good-luck !!

2003 Prius Hybrid System Warning Light
My Toyota Prius hybrid warning light has come on three times in eight years. If I turn the car off for 20 minutes, the hybrid light is off but the check engine light is on. After a while, the check engine light goes off. I think this problem is related to moisture somehow entering the hybrid vent on the driver's side. All three times this has happened, the weather was wet.
