Default IS300h - C1259 HV System Regenerative Malfunction

My 2014 IS300h randomly popped this error code. C1259. If I disconnect the negative terminal of the auxiliary battery it disappears but the minute the car turns off the engine and then turns it on again as part of the start stop that’s when the error pops up.

anyone know what it can be? Since this error, I’ve noticed the car isn’t doing the start stop either
