    Did you renew your safety connect subscription?

    NO = Red Light

    I don’t think it’s the subscription. I have never paid for a subscription in my 2017 Prius and my light goes green after startup.

    From the owners manual

    When the power switch is turned to ON mode, the red indicator light comes on for 2 seconds then turns off. Afterward, the green indicator light comes on, indicating that the service is active.
    The following indicator light patterns indicate specific system usage conditions:
    ● Green indicator light on = Active service
    ● Green indicator light flashing = Safety Connect call in process
    ● Red indicator light (except at vehicle start-up) = System malfunction
    (contact your Toyota dealer)
    ● No indicator light (off) = Safety Connect service not active”

    From the owners manual “
    After you have signed the Telematics Subscription Service Agreement and are enrolled, you can begin receiving services.
    A variety of subscription terms are available for purchase.”
    My ‘22 came with a 24 month subscription, yours might have come with a longer term.
