Siri won’t release microphone icon in dash display

I’ll say “Hey Siri, what’s the population of Moab Utah” and I’ll get an answer.

Then this microphone icon will not go away no matter which buttons I push. There is no exiting this microphone.

The only way to disengage it is to disconnect/reconnect the phone to the truck.

Any ideas?

ps. The population is Moab in about 5500.

 

I ended up with that issue last week. I think I interacted with Siri about a text message, which I never do. It irritated me enough to stop the truck and restart it to make it go away.

 

Yup, same thing happened to me once. Honestly, I can't remember how I got it to go away but I did. Sucks getting old.

 

This happens to me about 80% of the time when I start my truck. The only way I’ve been able to get rid of it is by pushing and holding this button and after it beeps I press it again and it goes away. I don’t understand why this pops up almost every time I just start the truck without doing anything.

 

Happens to me every time I drive my truck. Push the radio on/off button.

 

The volume knob is an on/off too? My 1996 T100 was much less sophisticated!

 

I get this on mine every couple weeks. It usually goes away after 6-7 minutes. I believe it is the Apple CarPlay having the mental malfunction as it has just been doing it for about 3 months.

 

Just happened to me for the first time. Glad I’m not alone. Annoying af…

 

same issue on a sr5 base. annoying af

 

I have found that a quick tap of the volume/power will release it. If not, a long press to shut it totally off, then a short press to turn back on will clear it.

Totally annoying.

 

So out of nowhere that icon got stuck today on my dash.
Me: Hey Toyota?
T: What can I do for you?
Me: Stop listening!
Boom! Gone!

Merry Christmas everyone!

 

Only happened once. I just disconnected the phone from the system and then reconnected. Siri had disconnected.

 

I believe that’s called a Freudian slip. Siri is always listening, she just forgot to tell you she pretended to stop…

 

I know this stuff is getting scary fast

Just the other day

Microphone on siri listening,

Me: siri what is going on, the mic is on your stupid siri
Siri: that wasn't very nice
Me: well crap I'm sorry
Siri: no need to apologize, no worries

My wife was in the truck laughing and I said this AI crap has really advanced
