    I have a 2010 Pkg III and recently got into in accident (not my fault!). Once I got the car back, the arrows that show on the Energy Monitor display are no longer there! I can see the engines and battery pictures , just no arrows showing the energy flow. What could have caused this? The car runs fine otherwise.

    I would imagine the graphics are coming from either a body or powertrain control module and it may have been damaged from the accident. Sounds like it's back to the dealer.

    This is also the indicator that the car has finally run out of gas. I sure wish you had a miniVCI so we could audit the flags and settings.

    Please let us know what is found.

    Strange, the car has never run out of gas. Maybe when they disconnected the battery to tow it, something was triggered. Thanks, I think I'll be going back to the dealer for this.
