Problem overview

Some Toyota Yaris owners report experiencing issues with the media computer that affect the radio, GPS, and Bluetooth functionalities. These problems may be linked to electrical issues in the main battery or ignition circuit, which could arise from a loose or corroded ground cable, a faulty ignition relay, or poor contact at the battery terminals. Additionally, some owners have noted that their navigation systems, radios, and other computerized components reboot unexpectedly, suggesting a more significant issue with the media computer that may need professional diagnosis and repair.
