Try this


In order to disable the reverse beeping on your 2007 Prius, follow these instructions:

1. Without your foot on the brake, turn on your Prius and make sure you are in ODO mode (not Trip A or . Power off the Prius
2. With your foot on the brake, turn on the Prius. As soon as the ‘Ready’ light is lit, press and hold the ODO button for at least 10 seconds.
3. Keeping the ODO button pressed, move the shifter to Reverse and release, then press the Park button again. At this point, ‘b- on’ should appear on your dashboard display.
4. You can now let go of the ODO button, and each press of the ODO button toggles between ‘b-on’ and ‘b-off’. To disable the reverse beep, simply set it to ‘b-off’, the power off the Prius.


This does not work on European models, does anybody know how to do this on a UK model.

Will this apply to all Prius 04-07? I will still try it.
