    Hi all!

    So I'm brand new to the Pruis world and I'm in love. No complaints at all. Just many, many questions lol. For starters, what is with the time on these cars? I know how to change it. But when I do, it continues to blink, the two dots that is. That seperate the hour from the minutes. I swore when I first bought the car the dots were set. Am I going crazy?

    Thanks in advance guys! x

    You guys got nothing? :-( lol

    The colon blinks to represent seconds. Its normal behavior for the newer model prii. I believe my Gen 2 doesn't have the blink buy my grandads gen 3 does.

    It's not the colon in the time that's blinking. It's you. ;)

    Interesting. I'm just so anal about things like this. Then again, if I can get use to the "Passenger Air Bag Off/On" illuminating 24/7 then this should be a breeze. ha!
