    Have you tried ejecting the disk and reloading? If so and under 36k miles, take it to the dealer.

    I don't think there's a cd for 2012 version. Also, I've passed the warranty mileage...I'm at 60K.

    disconnect the 12v negative for a few seconds.

    I mean to disconnect the 12v battery in the hatch area. Just the negative will work, disconnect it for 30 seconds and reconnect. You will need a 10mm socket or wrench.

    This will reboot the radio, in case it's stuck on a screen it shouldn't be stuck on.

    disconnecting it wouldn't help if I am not wrong.
    U may have to get a new unit, I suspect the storage on the HW is corrupted.

    My 3013 Prius started doing the same, "Loading Map" msg with spinning icon. Dealer wants $139 to diagnose. Sure would like to get this fixed but $$$?

    Have you tried ejecting the DVD (slot below the CD slot behind the MFD), wiping it off and re-inserting? I was getting periodic read errors while driving and ejected the disk and found some dust to wipe off. Worth a try.
