Common problemMy ToyotaiPhone and Android app

MyToyota app won't connect to the car

Services not active or car has no signal

The car sends its data to the app when the engine is switched off, over the mobile network. Toyota says this may fail when the car is parked underground, and nothing works until Connected Services are activated for the car.

Is My Toyota down right now? Operational: 2 problem reports in the last hour. If it were down for everyone, this problem could come from there; right now it looks normal.
Fix it

How to fix it

  1. Switch the engine off at the end of a trip, as that is when the car sends data to the app.

  2. Park where there is mobile signal, since data may not get through from an underground car park.

  3. Select the car in My Garage and open Connected Services Center to check the status of each service.

  4. Activate any service that is off by following the steps in Connected Services Center.

  5. Contact Toyota through the Contact Us or App Support section of the app if it still fails.

From My Toyota's help pages: toyota.co.uk, in our words. Checked on 11 November 2026. If the steps do not help, My Toyota's own support is the next stop.
