    When I put my 2024 PP XSE in ready mode, after viewing the Warning screen, I see a screen that indicates
    "Enter Privacy Lock Password
    Current Privacy Lock Password"
    I have not knowingly ever setup such a password.
    I do not use the Toyota App.
    I do not have a Toyota account.

    Any suggestions to clear this lockup screen ?

    I have learned from the PP 2024 MultiMedia Owners Manual 2.8 Vehicle Settings Pages 60-61 'Settings related to security and privacy can be changed' Setting [Privacy Lock] ..."When set ON, entering the password will be required when the battery is replaced ...."

    I did disconnect the '-' battery post wiring from the battery to charge the fairly new battery for about 4 hours total yesterday. Charge included about 3 hours in Absorb Mode at about 14.3 v charging voltage. The max current the charger can deliver is 7 amps. then Float for about 1 hour at about 13.1 v. The battery then started to settle at about 13.04 v and has currently settled to 12.76 v (about 24 hours after end of charging).
