I have good news for the owners of

 

- Corolla AXIO / Fielder Hybrid, and

 

- Honda FIT Hybrid

 

Developed Solution and Have Converted Instrument Clusters in those to English.

 

Google Translate is hopeless with them. And I was surprised to see over 250 words and phrases in Japanese. Related to various settings and warnings.

 

Here are my latest developments:

 

 - Toyota Corolla AXIO / FIELDER Instrument Cluster (Dash) Japanese to English Conversion

 - Honda Fit Hybrid Instrument Cluster (Dash) Japanese to English Conversion
  





Toyota / Lexus Hybrid and EV Battery Expert Battery Test & Repair

I have a Honda Fit hybrid and personally never saw much need for translation, apart from setting the clock and a few cosmetic settings which I managed fine with Google translate.

 

Nice to have the option though, wonder if they need the whole car or if one can remove the gauge cluster & freight it over.

 

Be interested to know how much $ they would charge.

Hmmm...

I have 2 fielders I'd possibly be interested in getting done.
I assume I'd need to send the dash to you for conversion. What's a rough cost and timeframe per vehicle?

I have stock of various clusters, turnaround is - the same day. In Auckland - about an hour.
For quotes: phone number is in the video.

Google Translate is useless in 80% with Fit's messages.
Considering those cars are all second hand - people will see a lot of warnings related to hybrid system. And there are a lot of specific warnings just for that...

Another name for FIT hybrid is "Grace" - same dash.
Another variation of Corolla Fielder/Avio is Vitz. Vitz dash is on order, arriving soon.
