Sounds like it's time to hit YouTube and see what the fix and cost is if you haven't already. Otherwise just pedal and sell the car for scrap to buy more corn and get an old cheap diesel beater that will last 400k miles

It's looking like a $700 part + labor.

No other issues with the car.

113k on the dash.

Check to make sure the orange safety plug (if there is one) is staying seated properly on the battery…

It is. The hybrid battery is fine. Charges properly and all.

I'm thinking it's one of 3 things;

Inverter thermostat

Inverter pump

MG2 stator

It's throwing code P3125

Have you had that thing for 20 yrs

No.

I was going to be really impressed lol

Lol. I got it very cheap because of this issue....

Disconnecting the 12v clears the issue for a bit and it comes back eventually.

I've just been Disconnecting the 12v when it'll be parked for 20min+

Reading says inverter issue, code sats MG2 stator.

🤷

you got me I'm terrible with vehicles
