U could have requested a rental free of charge

2024 Tacoma, same issue. Phone felt like a Southern sidewalk after a 20 min drive. Good luck.

I have a 2017 Avalon Hybrid Limited and the charger has never worked and after dealing with Toyota after the airbag crap I didn’t bother.

I want to turn this piece of sh*t off. Then I can at least use this space for my wallet or cell phone while I charge it via cable. Anybody know if there is a fuse I can pull to disable the wireless pad? Or is the only way to open it up and cut the cable?

Thank you for posting this problem with Toyota's wireless charger. I upgraded to an iPhone 15 so that I could charge my phone in our Yaris Cross which didn't work so I bought a case for my new phone with a Qi charger but still no joy. Next step, like you, is to go to the garage and tell them it's not working, our garage is roughly an hours drive away too! The Toyota user guide may as well be written in Chinese! Grrrr! Our car is a 2024 model just out of interest.

don't waste your time. They are all faulty. I'm from Europe. 2023 HB Corolla. Didn't work since the first day. By far the worst part of the car

@wolfpackmedia805, do I need to disconnect the battery first or leave connected and keep the headlight switch off so I can easily test out my connections as I go?

I have a 2017 Tacoma, and my charger literally melted the wireless antenna in my phone because it got so hot. Luckily, my phone was under a year old and covered under warranty, but now I charge it with a cable instead.

Is it possible to have a website or a link to order door lighting?

Sounds like a class action lawsuit. Write complaints to better business bureau and to your state’s attorney. Hold Toyota to the fire enough is enough.

And here I was after getting my '24 Tundra feeling kinda bad I didn't have wireless charging. I think I'll just stick with the old reliable charging cord.

Thanks so your heads-up ‘you the best’

2025 Corolla xse , wireless charger blinks orange with seconds

How much is all the light cost ?

Installing the Rave kit (all Toyota Part numbers). Has anyone installed this on a 24 Limited? I am going to ask my dealership for the wiring diagram, these colors do not match, I could probably poke around with my multimeter and look for 12v with the lights on. I am running into the same thing everyone else is, passenger front, stays on all the time, but works with the dimmer switch. After watching what is out there on youtube, I assumed if I figured out one, the remaining doors would be similar, nope hahah.

I have a 2016 Camry Hybrid. The charging used to work. It was rather slow but it did work. Then one day it would start to connect, then stop pretty quickly. Now it doesn't work at all. No light, no nothing. I do know it was a $75 option. Maybe it broke, don't know. I did like laying my phone there when my wife was traveling with me as she could use the separate USB to charge her phone at the same time.

I have a Toyota Veloce 2024 and the problem exists

I have a 1794 edition without the AVS suspension and the ride is very comfortable. I was planning to replace it with AVS suspension but after watching your video I decided to keep it the way it is. I may just add an air bag in the future if I need to. Thanks.

Can you link the Amazon charger you bought

I've never used my wireless charger in my 2021 tacoma and it bubbled up and warped in less than a year

I just got a 2024 Toyota Sequoia Platinum and so frustrated with the wireless charging... So annoying

My2023 Tundra won't charge my Samsung 24 Ultra. It does charge my Samsung S10 Plus but poorly resulting in overheating the phone on long trips.

I think it's a symptom of OEM vehicle chargers. I had a Dodge Ram that had a charger just as crappy. After taking them apart and looking at it closely, the charging pad on both of these chargers are like 1.5x2", which is VERY small - especially given the size of phones these days.

Charging 70 grand for a truck and a wireless charger don't work, engines blowing up, windows rattling, JBL subwoofers blowing up, pathetic Toyota. Fix the scrap and take care of your customers

Should probably save our money for the rental car needed after our tundras go in for 3 weeks for the recall about to happen on debris in engine compartments 😢

2021 prius here....nope, Qi charger doesn't work either. sucks. i gave up and just plug it in. not sure if i want to go through the hassle of installing your suggested new charger. glad there is an alternative tho'. thanks for saving me the time and frustration of taking it in to the dealership. sorry you had to go through all that. midly infuriating !!!!

Any escalate this Toyota coporate?

It needs a plug and play version

Same problem with my 2021 Corolla hybrid, what causes this was the MagSafe at back of the iPhone could irritate the chargers, if you charge another phone without MagSafe, it’s all good. I don’t normally use wireless chargers anyway, they are rated 5W in Toyota cars and I would rather have my phone plugged in to a powerful PD charger

100 % True. i bought new 2023 toyota venza. charger not working at all

My 1794 have 2 sensor

There 2 sensor one on each side

Exactly same issue with 2022 Toyota Sienna Platinum. Toyota advertised Sienna Platinum or Limited trim has wireless charging but It's a real bummer, scam. Toyota should be sued to recall.

I cant get the top off the wireless charger.... like you press in and the cover comes off and it's stuck bought this car new a month ago

The tray light is installed upside down. Also why didn’t you just use the unused female adapter to splice and connect to the window control?

Did you by chance put lights in your foot wells, trying to pin down those part numbers as well

I think it’s a software issue. They should update your radio.

You really did a great job detailing your experience and legally Toyota should be required to recall all their wireless chargers for vehicles 2018 and up. My brand new 2020 Prius limited I bought in 2021 new, the wireless charger shuts off within 20 seconds and never works

Mine doesn't work at all. I recently bought a 2021 Tacoma TRD Off Road with 60k miles. The first two days of ownership the wireless charger worked. Now however, when you turn it on nothing happens. Even the light in the charging bay will not come on. I do have an extended warranty but I believe it's powertrain only. So this wireless charger probably not covered. But it's something minor so I'll just stick to the old tried and true method of using a usb cable which typically charges pretty quickly.

Yup ours never worked..maybe charges for 5-10 sec then stops and light blinks....toyota says its overheating....i keep telling them its not even charging more than a few sec.....fast fwd a few times now of course electric is no longer covered and id need to pay over $200 just for them to inspect it

Nice video! Thanks for sharing. I added up all the part numbers total cost and it was $448. Am I missing something or is there something we don't need on the list?

Unfortunately the only thing to do is suing them they’re counting on the fact that you wont

bro had the dome light on and took away the whole experience of what the light looks like at night

I have a 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross with the same Issue Using a I Phone 14 Plus with a outer case on the phone. I just picked up a 2024 Subaru Crosstrek Sport with the same case on the phone and guess what no problem. Hey Toyota find out what Subaru is using on their charging pad and use it

2020 camry and same issue with iPhone 15. But with my old note 7 no issues. My thoughts is the camera bump on the iPhone is too large now and when you put the iPhone on the pad you can see space between the phone and the pad. I can’t see that on the note phone. What I want to know if there is something that can raise the qi bump up more or maybe I get a file and file down the sides of the qi holder to make room for the camera bump on the iPhone. Be nicer if I could just add a piece of conductive material to the qi charging area though.

Great video! I had been wondering how to illuminate my limited door trims, and alas this video pops up. My question is, are all the parts available at the dealership or where did you purchase them?

Thank you so much for making this video, I have the same problem! I have a 23 Corolla Hatch

great video i went in for the recall and now i get water in my bed im on my way to hardware store to pick up my rubber washers now Thank You very much

Loose the background music. Nice vid though thx

2022 Capstone… same problem. 80k for a truck with pretend features. C’mon Toyota! Do better. Thank you for this video!
