Low Bluetooth Microphone Volume

[voscott]

I love PriusChat. I brought this up to my dealer just a few weeks ago and they told me there was nothing that could be done. Here there is so much knowledge and self care going on. Love it!

Yup just tried it with our new prii that arrived yesterday. I did the hold display button and turn lights on/off 3 times

I can confirm that it works on an 07 Prius. Thanks, forum!

Ditto 4/1 settings and a lot better

Wow, there is no way anyone would know to hold the info button and flick the lights on and off three times to get to that secret diagnostic screen. Was that in a manual somewhere?

Anyway, I've raised the gain and will test it out with my wife or someone who might know how it used to sound.

Thanks for your help.

This chat is a great forum.

it's default is 3 outgoing and 0 incoming.. 4 outgoing works well.. boosting incoming creates and echo.. and i don't know how the echo canceling screen works... i assume it's milliseconds.. which is why it's at 1.5 on default ( if i remember correctly )

With all these postings about low bluetooth audio and problems with iphone I expected the worst but I was pleasantly surprised to find the my iphone 3g works fine with my 2009 and no level adjustments were needed.

I held down the info button (on the MFD) and turned the headlights on and off three times and got the diagnostic screen to do the adjustments. after I adjusted the volume for sendiong to "5" I just turned the car off and back on and everything was back to normal and my sending volume was much better! Hope that helps. P.S. you must hold the info button by the MFD the one on the steering wheel will not do it.

THANK YOU!!! Had constant complaints that my voice was almost inaudible when calling through Bluetooth from my iphone 3G in my 09 Prius. Took car to dealer. They said there was nothing wrong... must be my phone. I asked if there were any possible adjustments, told me there weren't. Tried other phones - same problem. Followed your instructions to access diagnostic screen, worked immediately. Found "send volume" setting at 0, increased to 5. Presto, problem completely solved. Fantastic!
Thanks again.
