Jun 2, 2014
I've found lots of good resources here about disabling the backup beep with a bluetooth OBDII device, but I don't have access to an android phone. I have a windows 7 laptop.

View 8 RepliesI would like to record Xm radio directly from my Prius Xm interface. I see capabilities like the following when using a specific Xm tuner.
Recording XM Radio with Replay Radio
I could see plugging in a cable or a custom a/b switch wired to the car's xm interface that would connect to a garage computer. A side benefit might allow distribution of the PC's audio throughout the house.
Is it possible to stream my music via my android phone via cable to the USB port on the Prius?

View 1 RepliesI hookup an OBD2 tester on my Prius 2014 Plugin and saw the OBD2 P0300 - Random Misfire. I did a reset and the error still came on. I also tested my friend Prius 2014 Plugin which is factory stock and had the same error. Wonder if that is by design or not. Going to take my ride into the dealer on Friday for my 25K maintenance and have them look into that error. P0300 can be anything. Hopefully doesn't cause more problems down the run..
View 3 RepliesI have an android phone (Motorola Atrix 4G), and it bluetooth syncs fine with my Prius C One, however when I am driving on the freeway, it will occasionally disconnect for several minutes, then reconnect. It's annoying because I use my phone as my personal Ipod and I can't stand listening to the radio, and without fail, every-time I drive in heavy traffic, it will disconnect and I'll have silence for a few minutes till it reconnects. I can't upgrade my phone till February and I plan to get an Iphone, but for the time being I guess I'll have to use an Auxiliary cable instead of bluetooth.
View 5 RepliesAn OBD tester is reporting error code P1100. Checking online I have discovered that it is in reference to a Barometric sensor that is reading out of range. However, I cannot find any identification of the Toyota part number, its location, and whether or not it is a DIY replacement
View 1 RepliesI have a 2012 Prius Two, a monitor with Bluetooth capabilities. I use the Samsung Galaxy Note II with Sprint on Jellybean Android.
I have tried numerous music players on Android and here's what happens:
Music plays fine. Bluetooth paired perfectly. Randomly the entire head unit will reboot. There is no pattern. It happens after about a minute and a half. It shuts off and comes back on.
I do not have an AUX in unfortunately. When I tried my wife's HTC EVO 4G on Android It worked perfectly. Only Bluetooth.
I tried to install entune. No dice. it says that ny VIN is invalid.
I have a 2010 Jetta Sportwagen TDI with manual transmission. I'm really loving the heck out of it with only one real mechanical issue so far (a faulty Turbocharger Pressure Relief Valve). However, the RCD-510 has a truly horrible iPod interface. It's insanely slow, often won't show its "busy waiting" greyed out screen when it is cogitating forever about how to do its job and it fades up the beginning of every song resulting in the first half second of the song being lost.
Given how bad this is, I'm hoping that there's new firmware available for the RCD510 to correct these defects. Or, if not, where can I go to file bug reports? It's not clear who the real manufacturer is. It's also not clear how to tell what version of firmware it currently has or how one would upgrade to a newer version ..
I'm probably missing something but after tweaking around a bit I still don't see how to get my grouped playlists displayed in the (non-NAV) audio interface. What comes up are all the individual songs and I have to scroll down through them all to find what I want in a particular album/playlist. I'm hoping there's a "non-obvious to me but nonetheless easy" way to get it displaying album by album rather than piece by piece.
View 4 RepliesMy wife's 2011 Nissan Altima 2.5S threw a Check Engine Light. Runs fine, but we took it to Meineke for a free diagnostic scan. Problem: they said they couldn't get the diagnostic unit to talk to the car because the diagnostic interface pinout wasn't getting power through the #16 pin. They checked the fuses, but didn't go any further for diagnoses for why it would be doing that.

View 8 RepliesLooking for complete silence from the head unit. Is there a mute button or something I'm missing? I know pushing the volume button mutes it, but is there anything else that mutes it. I am going to reinstall cd changer tonight, to go back to factory setup to see if the sound comes back. I hope the dice unit has not blown an amp or something.
View 4 RepliesI am beginning to get a rusty colored leak at the interface between the transfer case and transaxle on my 2003 Santa Fe 2.7l 4wd. There wasn't any leak less than a week ago. What would make the transaxle and transfer case start leaking at the same time?

View 1 RepliesI played around with the audio system (Golf R with Nav) and it would not show any media even though the phone was paired and I was able to make the calls. Pandora would not play through the speakers either (BT streaming enabled). A sales guy with an IPhone had no problems - as soon as he would hit 'Play' in iTunes, the music streamed just fine.

Is this possible? or do I have to take it back to dealership?

I bought myself an 06 MK4 GTI and loving it!!!!!! But, now to the problem. OBD2 port is not in its designated spot. I believe the previous owner had an aftermarket radio in the vehicle and put the stock one back in before selling it. Is it possible they could have pushed on the wires and pulled the port out of its little cubby hole? If I remove the radio should I have access to the obd2 wires/port? IF so is there a trick for removing the stock headunit or do I really need the special tab tools?
