2005 Prius Driver Display Panel

Oct 27, 2008 3 Replies

Hello All,



Our Prius driver display panel has been turning-off on long (~4 hr) trips with head lights on. If the head ligts are turned off then the display panel turns on again. Anyone experience this behavior or any advice would be appreciated.



Thanks


Do you mean the MFD (the LCD screen) or the display containing the speedometer? If the latter, check to see whether your knee is brushing against the dimmer wheel.

Right, or there may be a "bat" (bad spot) on the dimmer potentiometer. Those can usually be worked-around by moving to a different spot or scrubbing the bat by rocking back and forth over it.
