You're probably talking about the RX400H -- there's never been a hybrid GX
C1241 typically indicates low positive battery voltage. This is your 12v starter battery (not the hybrid battery). So there can be a couple of things that could be going on. And in order of probability they are:
1. Dead battery. Because it's old, or because you ran it down playing the radio, left the lights on, etc. Buy a new one.
2. Dead alternator. It broke and wasn't charging the battery any more. Replace it. You might also have to replace the battery afterwards if it was run too far down.
3. Parasitic drain. Something in the car isn't shutting off and there's a constant low-level draw on the battery. Find what's doing this and correct it, and perhaps replace the battery afterwards.
If you don't have any car repair experience, take it to a mechanic.
