How to Connect Bluetooth in Older Toyota Models?
2 Answers
Older Toyota models can connect to Bluetooth via Siri. Below is a detailed introduction on how to connect Bluetooth in older Toyota models: 1. Siri: You can communicate with the car through Siri, instructing it on what to do next. You can also hear the system read out messages received on your phone and reply using voice dictation. 2. Touchscreen Display: Some cars that support CarPlay are equipped with a touchscreen display, allowing you to open or close apps on a relatively simple home screen. 3. Physical Buttons: The car comes with physical buttons.
As a seasoned Toyota driver, I remember pairing Bluetooth in my 2012 Corolla was quite straightforward, but you need to make sure the model has a Bluetooth module - generally older models post-2010 support it. First, start the ignition and wait for the infotainment screen to light up, then press the setup button (look for the SETUP option on the steering wheel or screen) to enter the Bluetooth settings menu and select 'Add New Device'. Next, take out your phone, enable Bluetooth scanning, and wait for options resembling Toyota or the audio brand name to appear. Click to pair - it usually asks for a PIN code, just enter the default 0000. After successful pairing, test it by making a call or playing music to confirm. Sometimes outdated software can cause connection failures, so I recommend regularly checking for vehicle system updates or trying compatibility with a newer phone - like when I upgraded to iOS last year and got it working in one go.
