Gen 2 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Unable To Take Off The Vent Trim To Get To The Stock Radio
I'm trying to install my Alpine double din but I'm having trouble taking off the vent trim and others pieces to get to the stock radio.
I looked at the guide on the metra site but couldn't even get the drivers vent off (I don't want to break any tabs or anything).
Gen 4 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Unable To Answer Incoming Calls Intermittently?
On several occasions I have had an incoming phone call, but have been unable to answer it by pushing the off-cradle icon on the steering wheel.
I am not sure of the exact error message, but it informs my phone is in use (I frequently use the dumbed down Siri feature with that button, and also use the phone to connect to Slacker and iheart radio and its pod casts through the head unit).
Gen 2 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Can't Find XM Unit Location
I just purchased a 2008 Prius and love it but I'm having the dreaded XM signal dropout. I would like to move the antenna from the from dash to the roof behind the regular antenna. I'm having trouble locating the XM radio unit. I heard XM unit is under the driver's seat. The unit under my driver seat is labeled 'navigation'. Is this the same unit as the XM radio?

Looking for location of the XM tuner so I can switch out the poor factory antenna but I see no clear location specified for a 2012 Prius.
The closest location I saw was from a posting by GeoGeek that pretty much said there is no specific location for this tuner. He mentions several possible locations. Is that because they're usually dealer installed?
Before, I start tearing into my car, need to know How the rear seat comes out, lift from the front or back?

Anyway just want to see if everyone else thinks and if this is most likey my problem. Still getting good gas mileage and power....nothing is off...just getting those codes from time to time and losing coolant, but unable to find the leak.

Can Display Audio's phone interface accept pauses or waits (P or W) in the phone number? My phone uses them for voicemail passwords, eg dial the number, pause a few seconds, and then dial the password. So far it does not work at all through the bluetooth interface when initiated through voice command ("call xxx xxx xxxx pp yyyy#") or through the car's screen. I tried to directly store a similar number into the Display Audio "stored" numbers but could not find an option for the P pause.

I Learned on a Toyota Avalon web page that you can force your audio system to reboot itself by pressing the power button for three seconds. On the Avalon, it only works on the "Limited" levels. I tried it tonight on my Prius Four and it worked. Great to use when your audio gets "confused" and you just want to clear it and start over.

I've been using MP3 CDs in autos for some years. Now I have a 2014 Prius 4 with whatever audio system is standard in that model. Generally all is good. But there is one odd thing: Whenever I stop the car, or it seems even pause the playback, it seems to restart so as to replay a few minutes I listened to on the last session.

View 3 RepliesGen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: MP3 File Size Limitation For USB Drive Audio Playback?
I presently use a 16GB USB drive that has about 240 MB of 2 to 10 MB mp3 files and it works well. The reason I ask is that SirisXM is going to drop my favorite channel (69) and I was thinking of making some large files of audio capture before it goes away. Large because its easier to make and play a few than many. There might be a file size limitation (not USB storage limitation) due to the amount of memory in the audio system.

Sometimes in the bright sunlight, I cannot see the audio display or the small AC display that shows which vents the air is coming out from. Is there any way to illuminate these displays? Will some LEDs around them work or make it worse? I'm driving a C two. I have no intention of upgrading to an aftermarket sound system; I just want a simple inexpensive way to see the info on the screen.

07 Prius, 6 speaker NON-JBL.
This happened a couple of weeks ago and then again. ALL the buttons on my steering wheel work, AC, Temperature, Defrost, Recirculation etc , except Audio. ( Dash audio functions work fine! )
The last time, restarting the car and the functions came back to life.
Is there some kind of official "reboot" process for the computers?

When I am listening to songs from iPhone there are buttons on my head unit (C2 radio NOT nav system) for play/pause, fwd, rewind BUT the rewind and fwd buttons only forward through the song it's playing (like you used to be able to do with cassette tapes) and it does NOT skip to the next song. How stupid is that? I have never seen a digital audio player that did this, the fwd/rewind always skip back a song or fwd a song BUT the prius head unit only skips through the song itself.
