Hello All,

Our Prius driver display panel has been turning-off on long (~4 hr)
trips with head lights on. If the head ligts are turned off then the
display panel turns on again. Anyone experience this behavior or any
advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

Right, or there may be a "bat" (bad spot) on the dimmer potentiometer.
Those can usually be worked-around by moving to a different spot or
scrubbing the bat by rocking back and forth over it.
