Hybrid warning light comes on out of nowhere. Code 3107: Lost communication between SRS ECU and power management ECU. All wires are otherwise good and no corrosion is apparent. This miscommunication means that the airbags are not working properly. Battery is healthy according to Toyota dealership. Hybrid warning light comes on intermitently to show when miscommunication is happening.
