On this 2023 Venza Limited, should there be a function for this blank panel? Anyone have any thoughts?
From all the Venza videos I watched while waiting for my car, I believe this panel could activate a windshield washer fluid heater. It’s something common in cars in Canada.
Anyone else having issues with wireless charging?

Happy cake day. I’ve seen many posts about wireless charging. It really doesn’t work well.

I had trouble with my iPhone 15 Pro charging in my Venza. Even with the Otter Case, it wouldn’t charge. But now with the iPhone 16 Pro, it charges fine, whether in or out of the Otter Case.

I’m glad I saw this. My iPhone 15 Pro wasn’t charging either. I thought it might be because it keeps moving while driving.
I installed a USB port there to charge my phone, which I keep mounted on the air conditioning vent on that side.

Really? I’d love to know more about your USB port. I keep my phone mount over there too.
@Robin
I added it shortly after I bought the car in 2021. I saw some USB-C versions on eBay recently.
@Derry
This looks awesome! Thanks for sharing the info.

I added a USB charging port/CarPlay port to my Honda, but it wouldn’t fit in an opening like this. Now I’m curious about how you made it work.
Just add one of these.

I’ve got the Venza Limited in the US, and it annoys me to have that empty black space there (I call it a ‘poverty button’).
Can someone explain what each button on this panel does? My wife got a new Venza, but I don’t drive it much. I figured out the one for headlights, but the others confuse me. Thanks!
It’s so frustrating that the wiper de-icer is only available in Canada. My husband’s 2023 RAV4 XSE has a de-icer, but my fully-loaded Venza doesn’t. It has a fake button, though.
This is for the windshield wiper de-icer.
