I see my trip info between Power ON to Power OFF when I turn off the engine. But then during my next trip it recycles all the reading..I want the Prius to remember my past trip so that way over a total 300 or 400 miles I can see the average MPG I got.How can I set that?
View 9 RepliesI need an explanation of the screen's information when the screen reads for "Trip B." What is the meaning of the MPG? Does it mean the MPG since I reset the Trip B meter?
View 10 RepliesTo install my FLIR system I need a 12V power supply, ideally switched with my Gen III's ignition switch. Where in the engine compartment can I find that?
View 3 RepliesI was installing an aftermarket nav system on prius 08, because 2 hours working with dome lights on I have to jump start, now battery doesn't show bars is blank no mpg status, a message appeared check a/c connections.
I check connections and NOTHING avg mpg got stuck... enter to service menu shows 13.6 volts while running and the car is running fine! just the bars doesn't appear not even mpg avg
Got a Decreased Power message across the dash info center today and was limited to only around 5lbs boost. I stopped and pulled the codes and here is what I found:
P054E - Fuel Quantity lower than expected
P1249
P1247
P0471 - Exhaust pressure sensor range/performance
P02D7 - Injector learning @ max
P0402 - EGR flow excessive detected
I dumped the trailer and limped home to change the fuel filters. I could only go 35mph on the flats and 10mph on any kind of up hill slope. I switched out the filters, purged the air, fired her up and cleared the codes, all seemed well. I backed out and went for a test lap around the neighborhood, as soon as I turned the corner and rolled on the throttle and reached 35 the message came back and the codes returned. I will be towing it in to the dealer tomorrow for diagnostics.
I am looking for a source for switched power under the dash. I am going to wire up power to my TST507 TPMS but I would like to have switched power. I have a bundle of wires all capped off under there but no idea if any are switched power. I thought I would ask before trying to probe each and every one.
View 7 RepliesI would like my two 12V power plugs to be switched with the key instead of on all the time. Is there any easy way to do this?
View 14 RepliesI have a base 2006 with CD only. I bought a OEM mid-line non-jbl mp3 prius radio (manufactured 2005) from junkyard and put it in. Initially there was the red triangle with excalamation and mfd dispalayed "red car with "problem" in it (since I disconnected park button). That issue fixed itself after couple of restarts.
View 1 RepliesDoes the cruising range in the drive information screen NOT reset unless you fill the gas tank ALL the way up?
I just threw in a few bucks (well it's a Prius after all) and it still showed 0 as the range.
The Navigation touch screen does not work. I can still us controls on the steering wheel, bu the touch screen is dead. I am assuming that I just buy and install a new screen? Or could there be something else to trouble shoot?
View 6 RepliesAfter a long trip this past weekend, I'm curious how the navigation system gets its traffic info. I received several traffic alerts (that were all cleared by the time I got to them).
View 7 RepliesI have a weird problem... on my 2004 Prius, the Info button on the wheel occasionally stops working. Originally, I thought that it was the button, so I just pushed harder, but that didn't accomplish anything. I can still access the screen through the MFD button, but the steering wheel button remains dead until I power off the car, then it works fine.
View 10 RepliesGot the upgrade done this week to allow manual regen. Instruction sheet says 'press the 'Info' button until 'EXH FULL XXX%' illuminates. Not sure I have that button. I've scrolled through everything in the info center and am seeing nothing under any menu item that gets me even close.
View 14 Repliesis there anyway to adjust the brightness of the lcd info and nav displays. I know the light dimmer adjusts it but not in relation to the gauges, if I turn the screens down enough I can barely read the speedometer. is there a way to adjust just the screens?
View 3 RepliesWife said the info screen quit for a block this morning. The radio also stopped at the same time. After a block it came back to normal. Is this a sign of something coming? We have a 2005 genII with 80,000 on it.
View 1 RepliesI bought an '04 prius about a month ago and it has already been at Toyota for over a week. It get's the red triangle, the yellow brake light, and the hybrid red car on the screen and says Problem! I took it to the dealer and he pulled the codes P3009 and info code 526. When you open the hood, the inverter overflow tank is boiling, so it must be overheating. I have read about the pumps going out and when the engine is cool there is turbulence in the overflow tank.
The guy I bought it from did say he had replaced the water pump recently. Toyota kept it for a week trying to replicate and couldn't, and even had the regional rep look at it.
2008 Prius with Nav/GPS system and 6-CD audio system. Around 30K miles, Bluetooth failed, and the Telephone Icon no longer appears on the Info Menu. Service Menu shows no version number for Bluetooth software, suggesting it somehow was deleted. Two local Toyota dealers don't know how to fix it. Toyota Customer Service gave wrong instructions: to eject the map data DVD and then reinsert it to reboot the system. That did not correct the problem because the map data DVD has only map data, not Bluetooth. Is there an internal hard drive on the center console unit that holds the software for Climate, Audio, Display, GPS, and Bluetooth? There must be. I need instructions on how to (a) reload the software, or (b) reboot the system to get software to reload. One local dealer said I had to replace the entire unit. That's like buying a new laptop because someone deleted Skype.
View 1 RepliesI believe that the odometer MPG applies to "when the hybrid engine is started." I turn the car on, and the odometer MPG is at 0.0
I flip to "Trip A", and reset it. Now the Trip A MPG is 0.
reset trip a
how do I set the trip A meter to zero.. Instructions in manual are a bit useless
What are the different noises you hear little while after switching off the car? Also after keeping the car switched off for a while when you open the driver door there is a noise of fluid being pumped, same happens little while after shutting down the car.
View 6 RepliesI have a 2010 Prius 4. The heated seats are real hot when first switched on. After about 3-4 min the passenger seat appears to either switch down to a low setting or switch itself off (can't really tell if it's on a low setting or if it's off completely). The light on the switch remains on.
