Default Radio muting itself & seat memory bug

My radio is acting up, sound is muted every 2 minutes for about 20 seconds each time. I think it has to do with my Bluetooth Lockpick picking up the phone and muting the radio. If I turn off my phone it seems to stop. Any fixes for this?

Secondly, I vacuumed my car intensely over the weekend and moved the drivers seat full forward and rearward. Following that, my memory setting would not move the seat, only the mirrors and steering wheel. Did I reset the seat memory by moving it full fore and aft? I moved the seat to the desired/original position for me and programmed the memory. It has been fine since then, but if anyone has a good explanation - fire away.

Lou, not sure about the seats being reset but I wouldn't doubt it. Toyota is notorius for things like this to reset systems.

As for the radio...didn't you and i have a conversation about lock picks a while back?

The problem was with the phone trying to link up. I agree with the reset explanation. As for you bringing up old threads CV, I offer this:

"Remember, always give you best.
Never get discouraged.
Never be petty.
Always remember, others may hate you. But those who hate you don't win unless you hate them. And then you destroy yourself."

Radio muting, seat memory-loss, and windows that open by themselves in the middle of the night...only one explination for all of this. Gemlins!!!
