Glad you got it fixed, dru! When I was having the MFD problem, I realized that if I had done some better planning on a trip that took us through...
Mike, the solution for me was, as you can see, to replace the stereo amp, which had a factory defect that caused it to drain power while the car...
True that. I haven't got the chops to do the MFD repair, but I still got it fixed for under $500 totall with a used unity from LKQ and a local...
Thanks, everyone, and apologies for not getting back sooner -- kind of got busy over the holidays. ccdisce, I didn't understand about half of...
I've got a 2004 with 112,000 miles on it, which I bought used at 77,400. I've experienced no problems with the hybrid system, and get gas mileage...
So, here's the outcome of my tale: I ended up just looking on eBay, and was fortunate to find that several used MFDs were available. I settled on...
Thanks, Priusyipee. I hadn't thought about the state inspection, which is coming up soon for me. I'm going to need to get on this. I have to say...
Yeah, I noticed that too, and it's got me thinking. I replaced the battery (expensive!) in May 2010. I would hope I wouldn't have to do it again...
Thanks. I'm hopeful the folks at the site stillageek recommended will come through, but if not that will be my next move.
Thanks. So, assuming the light-leveling sensor is really failing (and it's not related to something else), that does in fact affect how the car...
Thanks, that's helpful. Do you know how important this is to fix? The car seems to think it's a dire calamity. But then, the car thinks I need to...
Sorry to revive an old thread, but I'm having this same "error" message on my 2004. I have two questions. Does it need to be fixed? How badly am...
Thanks for this tip, stillageek. I'm in touch with them, and hoping for the best.
I've recently developed a similar problem with my 2004 Prius. It's got factory GPS, Bluetooth hands-free, the works. (I bought it used a couple of...
It did turn out to be the amplifier for the stereo system, which was drawing power even when the car was turned off. I was able to buy a used amp...
Thanks for the advice, Ed and everyone. To the best of my knowledge the techs at the dealer did do the multimeter test. Bottom line: after the...
Well, the saga continues. The dealership did simply disconnect the power supply to the JBL amplifier, with interesting results: the stereo system...
Thanks, Ed, and thanks to Patrick too for the salvage-yard suggestion. Obviously stereo-repair is not what a dealership specializes in, and I know...
Yep. That and the automatic window rollup.
Thanks, Jeff, and to others who've replied. I've already paid $200 for a new battery, and at this point can't see shelling out nearly that much...
