Steps for connecting Amazon Alexa to your Toyota

  • First, make sure that your vehicle is equipped with Remote Connect and you have already registered with Toyota Connected Services under your Toyota Owners account. If you haven’t done so yet, you’ll need to register prior to connecting your Alexa device.
  • Once that is situated, sign in to your Amazon account on their website or open the Amazon Alexa app on your device. Then, in the menu under the Skills option, search for the Toyota skill. 
  • Enable that, then sign into the Toyota skill using the same username and password you use for your Toyota Owners account.
  • Select your vehicle to link it, then create a four-digit PIN and hit Save.
