My question was not whether the 1.3.79 update was associated with the charging of the car. I knew that. My question was whether the 1.3.79 update is installed as part of the infotainment update via the USB port between the driver and passenger seats, or whether it's installed via the proprietary Techstream port in the rear of the car. The only thing my dealership service technician talked about was installing an update via the USB port with a memory stick sent by Toyota. If that wasn't the firmware update 1.3.79, then I'll need to bring this up the next time I have the car serviced at 20,000 miles.Dianne said:The 1.3.79 update is associated with the charging of the car.
There is a picture in this thread from June 2013.Blastphemy said:Can anyone post a photo of what that firmware update sticker looks like that gets affixed under the hood? I just checked and I don't see any new stickers under my hood.
Dsinned - can you post the TSB that references the Techstream procedure and required firmware update to 1.3.79? Thanks!Dsinned said:To best of my knowledge, the Tesla Gateway ECU (in the back of the car) can only be updated with a Techstream "black box" plugged in to that specific module. I could be wrong, but that is my understanding. There is even a Toyota TSB that specifically details the Techstream procedure to be used on the RAV4 EV.
However, after speaking with my service adviser, I don't believe the 1.3.79 firmware update was applied (per T-SB-0050-13 Rev2).Braxus said:Here's the entire document in PDF format: Technical Service Bulletin 0082-13 [Charge Schedule Function Inoperative Intermittently] 3.65MB
Dsinned said:For certain, I can attest to the FACT, that the "Check EV System . . . " issue still exists in my 2012 RAV4 EV even after firmware update 1.3.79 has been completed. It "might" even be that this update has exacerbated the same issue, because I never experienced it before my most recent firmware update. :roll:

I'm following up with my dealership and will let you know what happens next.
