    The sideview mirror flashers work as turn signals, but do not when locking the car as indicated in the manual: "The emergency flashers flash to indicate that the doors have been locked."

    Is this a service item or something that may have been deactivated somehow in a way I can remedy it?

    The vehicle is a 2018 Prius C with about 11,000 miles on it.


    Thanks.

    If not purchased new, that may have been an internal setting that the previous owner had turned off. Likely if you invest less than $30 on toyota techstream and cable, you can change that setting to turn it back on. I found mine cheapest on amazon some people find it cheaper on ebay.

    Thanks for the insight. It was purchased new. I am not familiar with techstream or how it works. And which version works with my model? Are there tutorials?

    I was able to fix the problem. I went to SETUP and thru that got to the customization menu/lights, where I could set it.
