Default Check hybrid system light came on!

Last week I brough my car in service after my check hybrid light came on. It was a Saturday. Luckly they had a courtesy car for me. The gave my car back on Tuesday and detailed my car inside and outside for me =). They told me that one of the sensors had moisture in it and triggered the system. It was some transmission hybrid sensor. They told me there was nothing else wrong and they dried the sensor and it was fine. I wonder if anyone had this problem before. Kinda worried because it was the hybrid system light that came on.

If you trust that the car is just being glitchy and know that you didn't do anything awry, and you have no other option to get the car home, or limp mode.

Sunday (Like what happened to me)

You can popped the 12v battery and reset the car. I did this and it took the car out of limp mode and I was able to drive it. See my other thread here to see what happened next.
