I'm guessing that you still have a warranty, so you shouldn't do anything to the car other than with the dealer, otherwise, he could deny warranty coverage for whatever you mess up. In your case, when the battery won't take a charge, it's likely that the 12 volt battery is no longer functional. Change that and the hybrid battery should function correctly. Of course, if you cause a problem with the computer, the dealer could charge you for that, but at least you'll be going again. You'll likely need the dealer's help anyway, so that should be your next stop.

Do not attempt any work on it, have it towed to the dealer. Doing anything to this vehicle without the right tools can really mess things up.

In addition, hybrid batteries are very dangerous for someone who is not familiar with them. As others have said, don't fool with it. Take it back to the Dealer! Hope that helps! Jim
