Toyota ICS intelligent clearance sonar, what it does and how to shut it off

[@Kellykelz317]

My ICS will come on sometimes after fueling I’ve taken it to Toyota and they can’t seem to figure this out. This is a pain of 😅continuing spending money to get this figured out. Confused..will try to turn this off.😊

Great talking to you

Happy to help you are correct

[@Elev8taman]

Hey Steven, thank you very much for the reply. But, does this also work if there’s a hitch with a couple of bikes on the back hitch?

[@stevenwelchtoyota]

Yes

[@firstnamelastname9661]

Can you set up a bunch of boxes and pretend to drive into them to test the pre collision mitigation system??? Would be cool to see

[@stevenwelchtoyota]

it watches for metal or biological

[@firstnamelastname9661]

@@stevenwelchtoyota oic. Hmm put metal screws in the boxes 😆. Jk

[@stevenwelchtoyota]

@@firstnamelastname9661 at some point I will find a way to show you

[@karennelson3581]

I have two triangles w/exp point in middle. One says sonar system malfunction and the other is integrates system warning - are these what you are referring to?

[@bearmills72]

If you can show the buttons AND the screen, that would be very helpful.

[@stevenwelchtoyota]

It's hard to get that far back

[@theGator7dot1]

Turned off both ICS and pre-collision and my 2022 Highlander still slams on the brakes when I am backing up with a loaded hitch haul (storage rack) or bike rack. Icons showing ICS is off and still slams the brakes - super annoying.

[@theGator7dot1]

But I do appreciate your videos. Way more helpful than my Toyota manual, my dealer, my salesman, or the app.

[@stevenwelchtoyota]

Turn off RCTA in the settings menu. Try that

[@Elev8taman]

Same here. Don’t like it. I actually put a 24 inch metal cage on my hitch and transported a snowblower to get repaired. What a fiasco trying to back up, it kept stopping me every single time in reverse.

[@rickmoreno4177]

I had a wheel chair on a hitch and i turned every thing off kn that screen and it still slammed on the breaks while backing up. Toyota fix that shit. Hope it had a all k way of canceling that shit cuz then it's useless as a truck if ur towing a rv. Or a horse trailer if it senses things back there and slams on the breaks when backing up.

[@ryancumberbatch1604]

My Toyota has ICS and Park Assist. What is the difference between the two?

[@stevenwelchtoyota]

@@ryancumberbatch1604 park assist is the alert ics stops the car

[@ryancumberbatch1604]

@@stevenwelchtoyota Thanks

[@Tundra-pw2cu]

If the vehicle is in neutral and being pulled by a track though the carwash, will this system still activate and try to stop the vehicle. Most car washes I use , have you put car in neutral and the vehicle is pulled along or push by the track as it goes though.

[@stevenwelchtoyota]

will have to try it.

[@johnbrink7954]

We have the 2021 Highlander Platinum and that's the type of carwash I use. I don't turn anything off before entering (except the rain sensing wipers ;)). The system alarms like at 1:51 of this video, but because the car isn't moving (in gear?) you don't get the emergency "BRAKE" indicator. If you just temporarily mute the alarms, you can continue through. It does not apply the brakes.

[@stevenwelchtoyota]

@@johnbrink7954 thank you John great information!

[@MrJeanlove1]

Good day steve,when the Ics is off, will it turn back on by itself when the car is turned off?

[@stevenwelchtoyota]

yes

[@AshjanAlharthy-ii1bx]

If it doesn’t work have can we fix it In my car it’s showing that ICS malfunction

[@stevenwelchtoyota]

take it to the dealer

[@Irishgamer01]

So a posh name for reversing sensors

[@stevenwelchtoyota]

Plus braking

[@roundrobin339]

You didn't walk through the steps and show

[@stevenwelchtoyota]

What did you miss?

[@aizio1]

too much talking..not going to the point

[@stevenwelchtoyota]

I do videos in a way that the most people can understand them and get the most out of them.
