How to troubleshoot Toyota Bluetooth greyed out
Bluetooth connection failure is not difficult to deal with, especially once you have found the reason. Here are a few ways to handle them directly:
Check Bluetooth settings in your phone and vehicle.
Please check if you connect the Bluetooth properly? One of the common mistakes is that the driver forgets to turn on the car’s Bluetooth or even the phone’s Bluetooth mode correctly.
To check the feature in your car, select Menu> Setup> Bluetooth®> Detailed settings. It would be best to ensure that the Bluetooth function is working and there is no error message on the screen.
Check currently connected devices.
Normally, the Toyota car’s Bluetooth feature only accepts to record five connecting devices in its history. If the car’s audio system already has five devices recorded, it will not connect to the new one. It’s essential to remove the ones that are not frequently used or unfamiliar.
Check compatibility and update the feature.
The Bluetooth versions on both devices need to be compatible to connect. Most recent cars and phones ensure high compatibility with other devices, but there might be a certain mismatch.
You need to check the car’s audio system’s compatibility by looking at the Toyota official website. You should also update the system regularly to ensure the connection is not outdated.
Reset your phone or the Bluetooth feature on the vehicle
In case you have no other solution, try resetting your phone and the car’s audio system. To turn it off, you need to press and hold the audio knob to make it power off and restart automatically. This action helps the machine eliminate sources of interference to the Bluetooth connection and, at the same time, refresh failed operations.
Contact the customer care center.
