Yaris Hybrid Error Messages and Coding Issue

I have a 2013 Toyota Yaris Hybrid with only 30977 km. The engine light is on, and my scanner shows a fault code. Error messages are on the infotainment system and speedometer. I think it's incorrect vehicle coding. Has anyone else seen this, and what should I check?

Hey! That sounds frustrating. I've got a Yaris, but not the hybrid. I had something similar last year with error messages everywhere! Did the car feel any different when the errors appeared? Was it driving strangely?

Thanks! The car's performance seems fine. The error messages don't seem to affect driving or fuel economy. What issue did you experience? Was it incorrect coding, or something else?

Okay, mine turned out to be a messed-up sensor, but the symptoms were similar, so worth checking! Since yours is pointing to coding, it's probably best to take it to a trusted workshop. They'll have the proper tools to recode if that's really the issue. It's a pain!

Your advice was invaluable! I went to a professional. The coding was the problem, like I thought. Recalibration needed specialized equipment. It cost 360€, which I think is reasonable. Thanks again; you saved me time and effort!
