Rear seat reminder 8 beeps

[TheGreatWhiteNorth]

I permanently carry things on my rear seat, and everytime i open and close the doors, i get the 8 reminder beeps.
It doesnt turn off by turning off the rear seat reminder settings, and there isnt an option on Carista.
Its the most infernal and obnoxious thing ive ever seen on a vehicle. Has anyone found a way to disable it, that i may have missed?

I appreciate the response. Not the same thing man. Already had those off.

This is an 8 beep, rear seat reminder. If you open the rear door for something, it acknowledges that you opened it up, and it reminds you that you may have left something back there. Not a seat belt warning.
It looks like previous years of toyota models (non truck as well) allow it to turn off in the settings menu. This tacoma does not.

I stopped by The dealer to see if they have an option on the toyota scan tool. The service writer actually told me he doesn't know but I have to pay $239 for them to hook up the scan tool to just see if they could or not. A literal actual joke.
I'm hoping to see If someone had the dealer do it or not, to see if it's possible.


Thanks.

That is already off. That setting doesnt turn off the beeps, i believe it just turns off the actual reminder pop up on the display screen.

Thanks.

Mine is turned off and doesn’t beep. I only used settings via the UI in the truck, and Carista.

Turn it off on your settings. If I recall, it's in the instrument settings but maybe on the screen.

That option doesnt turn off the beeps, it just turns off the message on the screen, i believe.

I passed by the dealer and spoke with a salesman who owns the same SR5 as i do. we verified his does the same thing. He cannot turn off the beeps with either the settings menu or the carista. He offered to speak with a technician in the shop next week to see if the option is available on toyotas scan tool. Hopefully he follows through and actually calls me

If you still have an active Carista account, you might want to double check you have seatbelt reminders disabled for the three rear seat sections. I also have the front disabled.

Only two of the three are shown in the screenshot above.

If you have these disabled, and the setting from page 641 of the owners guide disabled, then your Sport is clearly different from the Off-road.

It's not the seat belt reminders that the OP wants to go away. It's the "hey, you might have left your kid in the back seat" reminder. I won't be surprised if Toyota does NOT have a way to disable that.
"Toyota let me disable the warning and I left my kid in the car in August!"

I don't think I turned it off with the Carista app. It's either in the settings on the cluster or the infotainment system, but it's doable.

Mine is disabled. RTFM.
