If the Prius’ inverter o r charging system fails, the following solutions are possible:

Inverter repair: If the inverter is repairable, it may be possible to fix individual components like capacitors o r fuses. However, this depends on the severity of the issue.
DC-DC converter replacement: If the DC-DC converter fails, it may need to be replaced entirely, as repairing it can be difficult.
Inverter replacement: If the inverter is beyond repair, replacement is necessary, and the cost may be high.

Affordable options:

Consider purchasing used JDM Japanese Domestic Market parts o r refurbished inverters for cost-effective solutions.
