FJCruiser emergency call system errors

My 2013 FJCruiser (gasoline engine) is throwing some weird emergency call system errors. The dash is lit up, and there's an error stored in the car's memory too. Anyone seen this before? I've checked the fuses, but they seem fine. Any ideas?

I had a similar issue with my FJCruiser. Are you experiencing any issues with the audio system, as well? In my case, the emergency call malfunction appeared alongside problems with the entertainment console. I eventually traced it back to a faulty connection.

Interesting. No audio issues here. Just the SOS errors. Where exactly was this faulty connection you found? Was it a plug? A cable? I’m not very experienced and want to inspect all potential issues myself before visiting a workshop.

I understand your wish to find the problem independently. Unfortunately, I cannot provide the precise location of the defect on my vehicle. I sought advice from a trusted workshop concerning this issue in the past. In my opinion, it's best to take your Toyota to a professional. They will replace a defective cable or plug connection of the component. It sounds like the emergency call system is as confused as a GPS in a corn maze!

Thanks for the heads-up! I figured it was probably going to be something like that. I took it to my local shop, and you were spot on. They said a cable or plug connection of the component was defective (cost 95€). All fixed now! Really appreciate the help!
