Flashing in my Prime

Damn, what a let down.

My flash is red and barely noticeable.

 

This sounds like the three blue lights on the dash in the extreme right side.

When you plug-in to charge if you get one flashing the charge is happening. three flashing means the battery is full.

 

You will alway have the flashing red immobilizer light when the key is not nearby or active. This is a required anti theft feature.

 

when the third led starts flashing there is about 15 minutes left till full charge and once all three leds are on continuously for about 3 seconds they all turn off meaning your battery is finished charging

 

it flashes periodically while I'm in my car waiting to finish charging, key fob is in my pocket.

 

It is also not active until you start the car.

 

Err, lower left outside, or lower left inside?

Lower left windshield (outside) is, as is being discussed, the charging lights.

 

duck tape.

 

Pictures man, Pictures!

 

Google search Karr alarm. It's a dealer installed alarm that the dealer installs and tries to sell to the customers. Lots of images too.

If that is the case they should REMOVE it for free.

An unknown “extra” like that could cause difficult to troubleshoot issues, especially on a Prius Prime. The Prime electrical system is not designed like most cars today. It is different.
Was it designed and manufacturer tested on the Prime to function properly without interfering with other functions?

 

Odd, very odd.

 

My prime came with a port installed alarm that wasn’t properly secured, my display went dark, the dealer fixed it and all’s well but it seemed hokey, having one from a dealer that’s misbehaving, that’s hokey’er

 

You just made my point about why it should be removed if it is unwanted.
