I've bought 2011 prius and found out that the front speakers (in the doors) don't work and all the other speakers work perfect. I took the radio out (without nav and without jbl) and checked if everything is connected. Everything was fine. I checked if the speakers were connected and removed the door panels to check it. Everything was fine again. What could be wrong? Are there any other connections I should check?
View 6 RepliesSo I was driving as usual and out of nowhere my front speakers stopped working. Everything started playing out of the rear speakers and my fade was still centered. I tried the hard reset with the pin and all, shuts the touchscreen and radio off, hit the power button, and nothing changed. Well, my setting were all changed but nothing changed with the front speakers. If I push the fade all the way up to the front, the radio is just silent. Can't figure out what I should do since it seems like a thousand people had this problem and it was fixed by resetting.
View 4 RepliesMy father in law has a 2011 Prius -3 - with 135,000 miles on it. He has an interesting issue. The front windshield wipers work on low and medium. When he tries to put them on high, the wipers barely moves. When I drop the stalk back at med or low and it works as if nothing is wrong. I have checked the 30amp fuse and it looks fine. I do not hear any grinding or noise when the wipers are working. I think it could be the motor. However before I go out and purchase the motor, I wanted to make sure there was anything else I could be missing... The dealer wanted 340 for parts and install.. .I know I can do the job myself as I have worked on their other Prius - 2005 with 240,000 miles and counting.
View 10 RepliesMy mother owns 2011 Rx350. She bought it used few month ago. Car's great for what it is and makes me feel relieved to think my mother's driving a car that is quite safe and reliable.
That being said, the car's audio have created some problem recently. How it happened other than my mother's assumption that her water spill at the trunk may have caused the problem. She don't know how much water was spilled and not even sure if that is exact reason. (It's about that time frame that audio started having problem, hence the assumption)
So, the problem is that the sound only comes out from the front speakers. I am not sure how many speaker there are at the front, but it is as if fader is set to front all the way. If I move the fader to rear, it kills the sound from the front and since there is no sound at the rear, it just dies out as soon as fader moves all the way to the rear. So with the fader and balance at the center, sound is only at the front and plus there is no bass sound also, assuming subwoofer (if any) is at the back and not working also.
My mother claims that it comes back to normal sometimes but I am not sure how often that is since I do not drive that car too often and I just found out the problem today.
I am a new 2011 PRIUS (III) Owner. -
I would like to know why I am not hearing the two bottom speakers in the back-passenger sides.-Is that supposed to be only the subwoofer?
My iPhone 4s shifts from car (Lexus 350RX 2012) speaker to phone speaker and back constantly when I'm on a call. I have erased the pairing between the phone and the car and repaired it, I have also reset the phone to no avail. Lexus says my car firmware is up to date. It has to do with Bluetooth AVRCP 1.4 compatibility.
View 3 RepliesI own a 2010 prius, have enjoyed the car. However, set out on a 6 hour trip this morning only to find I have no sound emanating from the speakers. FM, AM, CD or satellite all show on the screen that I am listening to something. But, the volume knob doesn't turn the sound up. Neither will the steering wheel buttons. The display used to show a numerical value for the volume. But nothing.
View 2 RepliesI had the Rosen HU installed today. All functions are working. However, the front speakers will cut out from time to time, and then come back on by themselves. The power loss to the front speakers is typically 2-3 seconds, but has lasted as long as five seconds.
The installer followed all directions. The antenna is on top of the unit itself, behind the dash.
My 2011 Prius plus made a growling noise from the front right engine compartment area the other day. Yesterday as I drove it to work...it stopped growling and the A/C stopped blowing cool air. The volume of air from the vents is the same, just no A/C.
View 2 RepliesI have a an issue with my 2010 Prius. I have factory JBL (no navi) system and for some reason, 2 of my speakers went out. What's funny is that my front driver side speaker is out but the passenger side works. The same thing in the rear. The one behind the driver seat is working but the one behind the passenger doesn't.
View 7 RepliesI own a 2009 GEN III Prius with full nav and the standard 6 speakers, no JBL. It has 2 speakers in the dashboard, 2 speakers in the front doors en 2 speakers in the back doors.
I upgraded my front speakers with 3 way JBL GTO 938 speakers, expecting to improve the low and mid frequencies. Unfortunately, the results are disappointing: Apparently, the speakers in the front doors only get LOW frequencies. So, the real lows are fine now, but I expected more from this.
Replacing the front door speakers with decent ones, but I don't get it. Sure, the real base will be better, but the whole idea is to improve overall audio, not
If I crank up the back speakers, passengers can hear them a little better. Is it the speakers or just my car? What is the simplest upgrade to fix the sound?
View 6 RepliesSo long story short. I have 2010 Prius package V, JBL. Recently 2 of front driver side speakers stop working(1 on dash,1 on door) only when I listen to radio and stream music from my iphone. I played with the L/R F/R balance and made sure about it. However when I got phone call and using navigation guidance voice it works no problem.
View 1 RepliesThis is my first 2000 Prius.
Speakers would be nice as they don't work. I want to install them myself/front door speakers.

I have a Android LG 39 C cell phone which will not work in my 2011 RX 350. Why not? Also, my IPAD 2 will not work.

View 4 RepliesI have a 2011 Elantra Limited with 63k miles on it. My car started with having troubles starting after filling up with gas, then it moved to about once every 25 times I started my car, the tachometer wouldn't turn on, and the car would have poor drivability shifting gears. Now it has progressed to stalling at stop lights. It has only done it when the car is warm and I'm stopped at longer lights. Will just die, but can be restarted after a couple tries. However on restart, the tachometer doesn't work and again with poor shifting. I typically have to turn off the road and stop my car and start it again and it's fine.
I just had a new battery as well as new spark plugs and spark plug wires replaced. Car dealership cannot recreate problem so they say there is nothing they can do.
Door speakers work for a few seconds when the stereo is turned on, but the door volume is just a bit lower than the front speakers. Then the door speakers stop sounding while the other car speakers continue. How can the intermittent door speaker function be corrected?
View 3 RepliesI'm a new Prius owner (only 500 miles) and have experienced a lot of issues so far. Today I got in my car and both front and rear windows were fogged up. I turned on both defoggers and the front window would not clear. I set the vent speed to high and could hear a noise like the air was blowoing, but it did NOT clear the front window - I had to clear it with a cloth so I could see.
View 19 RepliesSo I have a 2011 Elantra GLS with just over 20,000mi on it. I noticed today when I make a sharp left turn there is a grinding noise from the passenger front wheel. Almost sounds like the rotors are grinding on the shields. I am going to the dealer in two days to have it looked at, This is the only situation where I hear the noise.
View 2 RepliesI only saw two links in the entire forum for rattles that are occuring from the front speakers. I seem to get some rattles from the left of the driver side by the foot well or somewhere around the vent area there...it is hard to tell where its coming from but it occurs whenever the car goes over some bumps.
I also noticed some squeaking by the wood area on left rear door...again i cant seem to place my finger on where exactly its coming from but is there a chance that something is loose in between the doors thats causing this? or could it be that the cold is just causing the wood to contract thus causing for these problems?
