How do you reset the tire pressure warning light?

[arcierosp]

Is it the same procedure as resetting the maintenace required light? If so, do you know if it will reset the mileage again for that.

In the glovebox is the reset button.

Does anyone have problems with the reset light? My TC has been in service twice for the light coming on when tire pressure is good.

i work in a service dept. for a chrysler dealership. i had them put new brakes on my tC yesterday because i didn't feel like going to the toyota dealership & on my way home the tire pressure light came on. well i had them fix that today and on my way home the light came on again. any idea what the problem is?

I believe if you change out the stock tires, the sensor always thinks the tire pressure is off. From the day I got aftermarket tires/rims the light always comes on like 5 mins after I reset...

grrrrr i have that problem... 2 tires are yokohamas and 2 are crappy sumitomos (bought the car like that) but you'd think as long as either the tires have correct pressure and/or they're the exact same size you'd be ok...

can anyone explain that?

[SquallLHeart]

if they're both the correct pressure... then reset it.

(if you have an '07... make sure you got your tire pressure sensors)

to reset the mileage u have to open the glove compartment and all the way to the left there is a button press that and it will reset the tire pressure light.

TIRE PRESSURE WARNING RESET SWITCH
• By operating the tire pressure warning reset switch,
the tire pressure warning ECU can be set to issue a
warning at an inflation pressure that corresponds to
the type of tires.
Therefore, the dealer must set the warning threshold
to the proper value in order to comply with the local
regulations.
• Operate the tire pressure warning reset switch only
after the inflation pressures of all tires have been
adjusted on the vehicle.
• To initialize the system, press and hold the tire
pressure warning reset switch for 3 seconds or longer
with the ignition switch in the ON position. After the
initialization process has started, the warning light
blinks 3 times (1 second on, 1 second off).
• During initialization, the tire pressure warning valve
and transmitter measures the inflation pressure of the
tires, and registers the signals that are transmitted
into the tire pressure warning ECU at a frequency of
once per minute. The initialization process is
completed when signals from the all tires have been
received.
