    I've never heard of a solar panel charge controller that needed an external power source. I'm sure the circuitry incorporates some sort...

    I'm using the paid version of Car Scanner, but I'm sure it only shows information for sensors that exist on the car. I'm not sure that...

    I think you'd have to get pretty far into the technical weeds to find the true answer, but it seems to go against common sense to have...

    It wouldn't help you if your battery went flat while your car was parked inside. If I didn't know better, I'd say Toyota has contrived...

    I can't see myself spilling gasoline inside my car. I deserve a little credit.
