    The mfd touch screen no longer responds. All peripheral buttons work. Navigation and backup camera works. Where can I obtain a replacement MFD?

    Since everything else is working, there's a pretty fair chance that it's a broken connection somewhere inside that can be fixed.

    Edit to add:
    I just stumbled on a thread in another Toyota forum where a RAV owner had the same problem and it was fixed by "rebooting." I guess they meed disconnecting the 12V battery. Toyota Rav4 EV Forum • View topic - Touch screen not working

    I see a lot of the EBay ones (around $600~800) mention "core", ie: they expect to get yours in trade. I guess this is how they work: the troubleshoot and repair them, then resell.

    He mentions they only do second gen, but maybe by now third gen too?
