Scion FR-S 10 series question
 

On my Scion FR-S 10 series, the Electroluminescent dash panel display does not appear to work, I do not see "Scion" when starting up my car. Any ideas?

I believe there is a switch under the steering wheel or dash area to turn it on/off

I second this, it's a little switch doesn't say on or off but when you flip it, if I remember right, it doesn't show you it's on right away. Gotta get in and out to check. Otherwise take that shit back to the dealership and complain.

Thanks guys! Took me a while to find the switch, but I found it. Well hidden down there.

Right? And no one at the dealership could tell me what that was for. That and the headlamp adjustment switch. Idiots.

oh, i thought mine was broken cause it didn't light up, but now it does!:happyanim:

What do you expect? I know Toyota/Scion salesmen are not selling Ferraris but I think they should care about researching the product they are trying to sell as much as making the deal. You can't realistically expect a salesman to know everything about a specific model BUT the least they can do is put the effort in to follow up and get you an answer.

That's where the disappointment left. He guessed what it COULD be for and left it at that.

This happen to me previously as well. I found the switch for this light via this forum, called him(the sale person) and told him about it.... "Priceless" :)

You actually think they train sales people? You're lucky if they stay six months.

Think about how much people have complained about the cr buying process. Sales people don't stick around as they're one of the most hated people in the country. Why bother to learn the cars inside out if the customer just hates them and wants to get it over with fast as possible and "haggle" away any commission they get for the effort.

Find a non car person and they're proud they don't know 3/4 of the feature are.

The only time they seem like they know anything it's when they talk about the Camry. Then again, how long does it take to learn and repeat the "Camry is awesome, Camry is the best selling car in the US, Camry is made in the US, and Camry is the most reliable thing on four wheels." mantra?


Not knocking the Camry, just an observation that salesmen put more effort in the car they sell the most (& Corolla) and can get the most commission on.

You, sir, are very ignorant.

Coming from a Nebraska fan? That's rich.

Ah, being a fan of a college team automatically makes me rich, whatever the fuck that means?

While we are on the topic of 10 series and dealership sales team members being misinformed...... We shalt not forget to mention that most dealerships had no clue of the 10 series existence until the 1st production number 10's were on our shores.

They would have been well served to follow this forum.

Some chick at Toyota Boston area's number 1 dealership told me in May that "it's too early in the year for 2014's to be coming out."
