    Check EV System warning message

    Our RAV4EV displayed the Check EV System warning message last week. The vehicle was still drivable, but no sport mode was available. We could still charge it. When we brought it in to Toyota, they found error codes P312F and THC_d005 which meant Battery Coolant Pump 1 error. They gave us a...

    Replace horn with REAL horn

    Thank you Tony for the clear instructions. I replaced the OEM horns with a dual Fiamm install, and they sound great! It took me less than an hour. I actually spent some time checking out the high and low note horns separately, then together. What a difference. I highly recommend this small...

    Entune battery monitor

    I haven't been receiving my regular charge notifications by e-mail for the last week. It had been working just fine for the last 5 months. Something has happened. I called both Toyota Entunes and Safety Connect today. Both weren't very helpful. One person suggested reinstalling the app for...

    Rav4EV sighting

    I saw a Blizzard White Rav4EV today in Los Altos on Fremont Ave. What caught my eye were the bright LED DRL's. They were quite visible from a distance.

    Rav4EV sighting

    Hi Dsinned, Our system is a little older, so it may not be as efficient as the newer ones. One bright days, it puts out about 5-5 1/2 kW at the inverters, and has virtually eliminated our electric bill. I think our heater use in the winter contributes the most to our annual electric bill...

    Rav4EV sighting

    Hi Dsinned, I have a 7.5 kW(DC)/6.3kW(AC) system. There are 40 Sharp panels rated at 187W, and two 3500W PV Powered inverters. It has really helped us over the past 5 years, especially during the "hot" San Jose summers.

    Rav4EV sighting

    I saw another Rav4EV (2nd gen) for the first time today. It was a Classic Silver Rav4EV seen at the Mtn. View Costco. The driver was very friendly and waved when he saw me in my Rav4. It's nice to see other EV drivers out there. I am just wondering if others have seen Rav4EV's on the road...

    Decoding the VIN number

    My last 4 numbers are 1054, so I think they start at 1000.

    HOV vehicle sticker ( decal )

    The instruction sheet I received from the DMV requests that the dealership complete Sections G & H of Reg 256. For section G, the sample response given was: "Due to a clerical error on the Report of Sale, the motive power was entered as "gas (G)", when the actual motive power for this vehicle...

    HOV vehicle sticker ( decal )

    Funny...the exact same thing happened to me. I submitted my paperwork in the middle of November, and received my original application and check back in mid December, along with a request for a Statement of Fact. I had the dealer sign it, along with an official stamp from the dealer, and sent...

    Message: Regenerative Braking May Be Limited....

    Does anyone know if the brake lights come on while decelerating in B mode, like the Model S?
