Hiace Transport Mode Active

Thanks for the quick answer! Where exactly would I find this "car configuration settings" option? Is that in the regular menu on the center display? I've poked around a bit, but haven't seen anything obvious labeled "transport mode."

The location can vary depending on the specific software version of your Hiace, but it's often buried within the main settings menu, possibly under a 'vehicle settings' or 'factory settings' submenu. Given the navigation issue, and that it's not easily found, a diagnostic check with Toyota's software might be needed to properly deactivate it. I suggest taking it to a workshop.

Alright, thanks a ton for the advice. Honestly, that makes perfect sense. I'll book it in at the local Toyota dealer ASAP to have them sort out the transport mode. The car was still in transport mode; they just switched it off. Thanks again!

Transport mode is a setting that limits certain vehicle functions, typically activated during manufacturing or shipping to preserve battery life and prevent unnecessary system usage. It's intended to be deactivated by the dealer before delivery. The symptoms you describe are consistent with it still being active. Have you tried looking in the car configuration settings and deactivating it?
