What is the method to solve the issue of Camry not automatically unlocking when parked?
2 Answers
Set the automatic unlocking when shifting to P or N gear in the central control menu. Here are the relevant details: Introduction: The new Camry has not made many adjustments in terms of exterior and interior design, still offering three front face designs including the standard version, sport version, and hybrid version. The vehicle features the iconic chrome trim of the Camry, passing under the logo, making it highly recognizable. Additional Information: The Camry adopts a newly designed center console with a symmetrical layout. The S-shaped design below the center console adds a more personalized touch, perfectly aligning with contemporary consumer aesthetics. Extensive use of soft leather wrapping enhances the interior's premium feel. The maximum 7-inch LCD instrument cluster significantly boosts the technological ambiance inside the car, complemented by piano black lacquer decorations for an even more upscale appearance.
My Camry also had the issue of not automatically unlocking when parked last month, and it took quite a while to fix. Usually, this is related to vehicle settings. Toyota's auto-unlock feature is triggered when the gear is in Park (P), but sometimes the setting can mysteriously turn off. First, sit in the car, start the engine, and press the menu button on the left side of the steering wheel or the center console. Look for the door lock section in the settings menu and make sure the auto-unlock is set to ON. If it's already set but still not working, it might be a minor software bug. Try turning off the engine, removing the key, waiting a few minutes, and then restarting to reset the system. It could also be that the door sensors are dirty—just gently wipe the contact points on the door edges. Remember to regularly check the remote key battery, as low battery can affect signal transmission. If you still can't fix it yourself, visit the dealership to refresh the ECU or check the cable connections—it usually doesn’t take much time. Most importantly, don’t panic; this issue is quite common. For safety, just manually unlock the doors when parked.
