Description of the problem | The center electronic 6 function etune console, which contains the radio/cd player, gps, car and cell phone operations, died on nov 16, 2020. I made appointment and took it to daytona toyota the next day. The tech did a diagnostic and told me that the radio unit was fried. Sm said a replacement unit would cost $827. I agreed. I drove my car home and noticed that the radio had revived, but the only thing in the lcd panel was the station # in the top left corner of screen. No other function worked and i noticed for the first time that the steering wheel stereo/mode controls did not work. I brought the car back 4 days later to have the radio replaced and told them that the old radio am/fm had been working, but none of the other functions, and the steering wheel function buttons did not work. The tech did a 2nd diagnostic and found that the wiring harness had become twisted and some of the connectors pulled loose. They told me it would be an additional $650 to replace the defective wiring harness. They ordered the part and replaced it two days later. Has any other toyota owner reported this problem? |
