      Do you still have the video of you replacing or removing the center console of your 2001 prius? I am looking to replace my MFD display on my 2001. Thanks!

      Door open indicator does not illuminate if any door is open. All door switches check okay. Does ECU-B control the warning indicator. Also dome light does not illuminate when doors open. Dome will work in ON position. I have schematics for 1st Gen vehicles and it appears to show the dome light (in door position) and the door warning indicator control goes through the body computer. Any suggestions appreciated.

      Apparently deleting the spam in my conversations has made it impossible to send messages so I thought this was the way. I will make a copy and get it on the board soon Thanks

      Thanks for all your posts regarding the Gen III ABS/hazard/directionals issue. I just cut the infamous "sky blue wire at terminal 10" and all is well enough. It's people like you that make PriusChat the amazingly helpful forum it is. Thank you.

      I wanted to express thanks to you directly for your help today on my MAP sensor question. You must be an EE as I am because you appear to have drawn that schematic yourself. I work at a Carmel medical equipment start-up where I'm a circuit designer. Spend my work day drawing schematics and laying out PCBs with Altium Designer.

      I have the instructions for fixing the brake booster on the Prius c. I would like to post it here. Can I send you the printed copy, (I do not have it electronically), Fax, mail...
      The fix was easier than feared. But the bleeding was let's say vague..

      Your help has been, as always, invaluable. Finally on TIS but cannot find the New Car Features (NCF) tab or the Repair Manual. Spent a lot of time in Tech Library searching for EVAP and ORVR, found sections in Courses T072, T874, T852, T256 & T151 that are particularly helpful. Any recommendations or help much appreciated! Thanks!

      Always enjoy your posts. Well thought out, knowledgeable and informative. You also have a diplomatic way of correcting knuckleheads.... 'o)

      Thanks! I was about to try some expensive LED's, but I am supposing this problem will also blow/shorten the life of the LED's ? Or since they require less volts, do you think they my work? If you think I will have problems with the LED's, I may call the dealer and see what they charge to fix it before I can make myself try to do it.

      The 33060 navigation unit will indeed work in a US prius. I live in Canada, but my Prius was purchased in the good ol' USA! That unit is a Generation 3 unit where as 47020 unit is a Generation 2. Either will work just fine! However, if I could do it again, I would definitely go with the Generation 3! If you are ever inclinded to attempt the install, let me know, I am more than happy to help you. Dreamer, a PriusChat member, just finished doing it with my help and he is amazed at how much more he loves his car now! I have helped two others on PriusChat do it too. I hated it when people told me it was not possible. Nothing is impossible! I am currently helping a member with a 2007 Prius with a Nav install now. And even now we are blowing apart myths that Priuschat members have been spewing out for the longest time!

      No they didn't, its my girlfriend's car. Do you know how to reset the tire pressure sensor on a 2002? It was the "Prius tech" who finally got it running - Don't trust the dealer's shop!
      Thanks for the reply, Kibo
