I had a common problem with the car today, haven't used it for 5 days (lockdown) and today it is completely dead... doors won't unlock with the fob, no warning lights on dash or any attempt to turnover. Toyota checked the battery a while back and said it was fine. I have 2 questions: 1: I took the battery out to charge it and the alarm went off and continued to go off for about 15 minutes even with the doors locked and bonnet shut. How do you turn the alarm off if the fobs don't have any effect and there's no main battery in the car? 2: Why is the alarm so quiet? Is this normal? If you stand at the front of the car with the alarm going off you can just about hear it, also, should the indicators flash when the alarm is going off? (sorry, that's 3 questions) Thanks

thanks for the replies. it's a bit of a pain if you don't have a spare battery, you'd think the fob itself would be able to disarm the alarm. The alarm itself is always really quiet, even when the battery is fully charged, I'll have to take it back to the main dealer to get it looked at once lockdown is eased. We have an 8 year old Aygo which was my main car until I bought the 86 and that can be left for weeks and still start first time on the original battery (may be tempting fate there), as does my wife's 4 year old Civic, seems like Toyota are cost saving by using the cheapest battery supplier they can, I won't be replacing mine with another Panasonic one.

Hi. This week my Touch2 system has started to showing a warning about connection charges every time I turn it on. I've not set up any connections, so I wanted to see if anyone knows where in the settings I need to go to stop these warnings.
