Passat (B6) :: 2007 - Multi-function Pixel In Display Shift Vertically And Warp?
Just picked up a CPO '07 Passat Wagon (Sport Pkg2, 30k on the odo) and recently found the multi-function display between the tach and speedo has a malfunction. It sort of behaves like a melting screen saver where all the pixels in the display shift vertically and warp, or it blanks out all together and throws up a vertical stripe about 5 pixels wide. All the steering wheel controls work fine and index through the functions as expected. It has done this pretty much every time I drive the car since I picked it up.
The car obviously has plenty of warranty left so I have a service appointment at the dealer next week, but just curious if this is a common issue- a forum and google search yielded nothing. I've had a couple A4's in the past that had trip computer displays that acted up in hot weather, but not like this. Also, my in-laws have a MkV GTI with the same/similar trip computer and it hasn't ever done this.
Prius (Gen 3) :: Blank Display After 12v Battery Went Dead
The battery went dead on my 2010 Prius and when I had AAA jump start the car the clock plus the display with odometer, mpg, hybrid battery graph etc, no longer light up. Everything else seems to work.
Is there any easy way reset it other than taking to the dealer? (Could a fuse have blown etc.?)
Prius (2001-03) :: Car Dead In The Morning, Display Won't Come On
Have had my 2002 for one year now, with 96k miles. Occasionally I get the red triangle but after 5 restarts it quits showing.
But now I have a different problem: in the mornings the car is dead, I turn the key all the way but not even the display comes on. But, if I turn the key all the way to where it says "start" and hold it there, energy slowly starts to flow and after about 2 minutes I get a lighted-up display and the car gets back to normal.
Seems like the 12-volt depletes overnight and when I hold the key in "start" the main battery charges the aux. I'm afraid suddenly this won't work and I'll get stranded anytime.
Prius (2010-12) :: How To Darken Display Letters And Numerals In HVAC Display
Aside from spending $ to have the polarity reversed on the HVAC display, is there anything be done to darken the display letters and numerals? In the daylight this thing is unreadable. Very poor design by Toyota. Any little tricks that I don't know about?
View 4 RepliesPrius (Gen 3) :: Battery Dead / Jumped Then Display Freakout With Check Hybrid System
My 2010 Prius sat idle, parked for 7 days while my wife and I were on vacation. When we went to pick up the car, the airport valet said that the Prius wouldn't start, and so that they'd have to jump it. I approved the jumpstart, and got into the car. We got about 1/4 a mile before the display totally freaked out, including the "check hybrid system" as well as about every warning light there is. The car was beeping, acceleration was lost and it eventually died on the side of the road. The car would not start back up.
Had it towed to the nearest dealership. Initial diag from the service manager was that the 12v battery was dead. I approved replacement of that, and also authorized clearing out "a few software alerts". Got a call later in the day from the same manager (very nice guy) and there are about 11 errors that cannot be cleared out. Now he's asking for 3-4 hours labor to "trace the wiring" as suggested by Toyota. Apparently the tech had been in touch with them all day.
Gen 2 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: 2004 - Display Dead - Hard To Shut Off Intermittently?
I have 2004 Prius with 150K miles. All of a sudden, display went dead. A/C controls working fine but other half of MFD is not responding. It was also difficult to turn car off. Took several attempts and finally was able to turn car off. My Prius does not have GPS in it. Car starts and runs fine otherwise.

Prius (2010-12) :: ECO Display Option On Or Off
Any technical difference between turning the ECO diplay "on" or "off" when setting display options? I know when "off", the ECO sign does not show but does it also mean the car runs differently? Is this just a way to avoid having that thing show up?

I've been out of town for a week and left my almost new 2010 sitting in my carport spot. When I just went outside to start her up it is completely dead. Keyless entry wouldn't work so I used the key that pops out. Put the key by the start button and tried starting. Nothing happens. No lights. No nothing.
I guess I could have left something on maybe? This is pretty concerning! I don't know what to do! I don't even know how to jump start the thing. Would Toyota tow it for me for free if needed?
Prius (2010-12) :: Can't Turn Off Display During Daytime
I can use the wheel to dim during the daytime but can only dim can't turn off the display like I can at night. I've tried turning the lights on and adjusting the wheel but still can turn off all the way.
I would like to turn it off and just use the HUD.

Prius (2010-12) :: Smudges On The Display Behind The Plexiglass
just purchased my 2010 IV a few weeks ago and have noticed some smudges on the display where you get your graph for fuel economy. I had thought they were just finger prints and they would wipe right off. Come to find out they seem to be smudges behind the plexiglass. How they could have gotten there. It's a little annoying and I would live to clean it up. The smudges are most noticeable on the right side towards the top of the graph with a smaller smudge on the left side, also towards the top of the display.

During a recent vacation, while driving at night, the MPH display went black. I completed the drive to the hotel, resolving to change the fuse in the morning. When I started the car in the morning, the display was still black. I checked the fuse I thought should be involved (#22), but it was good. The MPG / MPG screen was still bad. Not wanting to drive an additional 400 miles back home without a speedometer, I called the closest dealership to get an appointment. The 2010 has 33K miles on it .
When we packed up and started the car for the trip to the dealer, everything was working. One week later and all is good. I plan on getting this anomaly recorded with Toyota just in case it happens again after the warrantee runs out.
Prius (2010-12) :: LCD Display Is Very Dark Nearly Unreadable
The small LCD display (Int temp, fan speed, etc.) in my Prius IV with Nav Package is very dark, read "unreadable" when sunlight is prominent in the car. This is so even with the panel rheostat turned all the way up to bright. Is this a faulty display or is there any work around if not?

View 4 RepliesPrius (2010-12) :: Trip Display Overstates MPG
My last fillup was for 9.539G and I had 501 miles on that tank (I had reset the Trip B display after my prior fill-up). This calculates to 52.52 MPG. Yet the trip B display had said I was getting between 55.5 MPG.
This has happened every time I've calculated my mileage, I'm not getting quite the MPG that the dashboard display says I am getting. It overstates my mileage by 3-4 MPG.
