In my RC there is a switch in the overhead console that disables the interior lights from coming n with the doors opening. Could it be that the IS has this and it has been inadvertently switched off?

Definitely showing the delay on a selected route. You should be able to recreate this by generating a complicated route at a busy time.

Fwiw you can have the directions in the main dash only pop up as you approach a turn/change, leaving that screen available for other important functions such a g- force 👍🏻👍🏻😉😉

It monitors battery voltage both in the short term and longer term so you can see any discharge over a period of time. The ‘strange’ readings from yesterday were because I was washing the car with doors/windows open and closed, and moving the car in and out of the sun. Yes, it’s a bit of a one trick pony as it does have tests for cranking voltage and charging but the cranking voltage is a waste of time on a hybrid, and the charge test is pretty obvious if you look at it with the ignition on. Works well for me though as I can get a reading from the front room/bedroom. For me, the only ‘proper’ way to test a battery is with a high rate discharge tester on a fully charged battery - which I have. I also have a Foxwell battery tester which injects an ac current into the battery to test the impedence. Not as accurate imho, but can give a reasonable guide to the general condition of the battery 👍🏻👍🏻

Something like this might help to give advance warning. Battery Monitor, 12V Car Battery Monitor Tester BM2 Device Leisure Battery Tester Compatible with Android iOS and Ipad with Bluetooth 4.0 and Above https://amzn.eu/d/8lj9pPI gives a decent view of the state of charge via an app.

Not forgetting the floor mounted sign that swung in the wind and said ‘2 A T’ meaning they did 2 stroke, were an agency and had toilets. And the two stroke dispenser was really hard to use on a cold winters day 👍🏻👍🏻

If you don’t have a large data allowance on your phone, don’t forget to pair yours/wife’s/girlfriend’s/boyfriend’s/kid’s phones to the hotspot so you aren’t using your phone allowance. I’ve put one in the RC and it is useful on longer journeys when her loveliness spends the time on youtube or watching films. I use A Smarty sim and get 4Gb for the price of a poorly octopus. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

For a ‘standard’ clean on the Jeep, I use an extendable window cleaner pole to clean, hose to rinse and I don’t leather the roof off. For a more intensive clean, I use some small collapsible steps and can do a proper job. Holding on to the roof rails helps 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I think those three ‘bulbs’ may be the rear fog light. The reverse light will be a single bulb on the near side.
