    Hi Everyone,

    Brand new to the Prius family having purchased a 2010. It has a standard radio so no screen to touch to access the tech menu. I was wondering if anyone knew the sequence of buttons to hold to access the tech menu? I've searched the threads for this but didn't see a posting.

    Thanks for any assistance!

    Welcome to PriusChat.

    Sorry but you will need a Nav screen to be able to see the Maintenance screen.

    You might want to consider a scan gauge II a lot of folks here love those.

    A friend of mine got mine into the diagnostic menu but he's not around to ask. Do you know how I would enter that or the service menu. He was able to check things and change bluetooth, ready light, etc from there.

    I'm a prius noob, I've only had mine for about a month but if your friend was able to get your non nav prius 2 in to a diagnostic menu I'm sure a lot of people here would be interested in learning how to do that. Most of the threads I've read here suggest you can't do it unless you have a nav.

    Sorry I couldn't help. Please post those steps if you get a chance.
