Questions & Answers

What people are asking about this car
How do you release the rear windshield wiper on the 2005 Toyota Prius?
It only lifts about an inch and is impossible to clean the window underneath it. Supposedly there's some "release button" on it that will allow it to swivel or fold up so that you can clean under it. But I can't find any button or any way to make this happen. Nothing in the user manual. Thanks in advance.

at the base of the rear window wiper, there is a plastic cover. Pull up and remove the cover. the rear wiper arm will now flip up (not at a right angle like the front wipers, though, but enough to clean around it.) See: http://john1701a.com/prius/documents/prius_maintenance_wiper-blades.pdf for...

2005 Prius - Voice on GPS is suddenly VERY quiet. What causes this?
I've heard that it's linked to the radio/CD player volume - does anyone know for sure?

If you go into the Menu screen, one of the adjustments you can make is the voice guidance volume. Somehow it appears that someone adjusted this at some point. Hope this helps. Ken Reference:15yrs of working with Toyota's
