Lock / Unlock Toyota Camry Altise 2013

[Vince Tran]

Hi guys,

I have a problem with my car and I cant find a solution for it.

Before, when I lock the car, the indicators usually flash once to let me know the car is locked; and flash twice with a sound when I unlock the car. Now, after I took it to the Toyota dealer a month or 2, the indicators do not flash when I lock the car anymore. However, they still flash twice when the car is unlocked.

I have done a bit of research and some said it may be the bonnet, or boot, or doors arent closed properly. I have checked everything and I cant seem to find what is the problem. My friend said it may be disabled by the Toyota dealer for some reasons but I am not sure if that was the case.

Is there anyone have the same issue - thanks :)

Asumming yours is the 50 series, I'd just check the settings through the head unit first.

should be settings, vehicle, door lock, then check the options that you want.

if they are all set correctly for the lights to flash then I would check the vehicle is actually locking.

the vehicle won't lock if there is a door ajar, or if it thinks the door is ajar. Which bring me to a question.

does it beep twice to unlock, once to lock and continuiosly when the door is ajar/open?

another option could be that a setting was changed while it was at the dealership while plugged into the computer.

so if you can't activate it through the head unit then you may need to take it to the dealer.

i believe it is just a setting that has been changed, but I could be wrong.
