My touch screen has been intermittent/dysfunctional and needs to be replaced. I'm looking for a replacement, maybe from a vehicle being parted out?

Any tips appreciated.

Thanks!
Dorian

I was going to say, but Matt beat me to it, that the bare touchscreen might be interchangeable with the ICE RAV4 of similar vintage, such as 86100-0R032 (note: one digit difference from the EV version 86100-0R033).

This would have to be researched or pioneered, but if I was in your situation, and couldn't find a reasonably priced used nav unit, I'd be tearing into mine to see if an ICE version's bare display could be made to work.
 
Thanks, all, for your input! I don’t know the root cause of the issue, but the dealer quoted $5k to replace it a couple of years ago.

I’ll research it more, but I think it’s more likely that I’ll be stuck with some firmware issue if it didn’t come out of another RAV4 EV.

Thanks!
 
The only notable benefit of the factory nav unit is the ability to toggle on/off the extended charge function. At this point, nearly all RAV4 EV battery packs have lost enough capacity that there is little if any range improvement from extended charge. Other forum members have successfully upgraded to more modern head units equipped with Car Play/Android Auto, and may be a route you consider.
 
Well, yeah, some can -- a whole lot of the lower-end EVSEs don't have scheduling, esp. "fat snake" mobile ones. What I was implying is that I think more is lost, in replacing the OEM nav unit with aftermarket, than only access to the standard/extended range toggle feature.

Facing a repair of thousands of dollars for an OEM head unit, a smart EVSE is not that much of an expense.
However, I'm with you - if you can keep an original head unit in the car, you will a more functional vehicle.
