    When I press the power switch button during depressing the brakes to turn on the car the light goes from green then to amber (or red) -not blinking. Is this normal? My friend has a 06 Prius and it doesn't do this. Any help would be great. Thanks!

    It should go from off to illuminating green. I've never seen it illuminate red.

    Mine does too. Goes from green to amber and then off within a few seconds. I thought this odd too driving home today. I just assumed it stay green while "on".
