Low tire pressure light

I hope I am not re-asking an old question, but I can't find a thread. I recently purchased a used 2007 (34k miles) Tacoma, and this weekend my low tire pressure light came on. I found one tire was a couple pounds low, so I filled it to spec and checked all the others. But the low tire pressure light will not go off. It has been two days and I have driven about 100 miles. Any ideas?

 

check your spare?

 

Check the spare and reset the light using the button under the steering wheel.

Per all the great suggestions, I checked the spare, it was low so I filled it. Light still on. I found the reset button per the recommendations, and the problem is now solved. However, I have not found any mention od the reset button in my manual. hanks for all the help!

 

TPMS is the abbreviation they use (I think)...

Tire Pressure Monitoring System

 

My tpms cane on again this am I. I figured because of the tempature change. Stupid Alberta weather.

 

Mine does that when it's really cold too

Drop your pressure 5 or so psi below your operating pressure , set the system , then bring your tires up to pressure .

The TPMS only detects a reduction in pressure , this will keep the light off for winter .

 

anyone have trouble with their lug wench geting lugs off? I couldn't get the wrench to seat and it stripped out one of the nuts and had to get towed to the dealer and they couldn't get it off with the wrench either. Toyota is reimbursing for the tow I have 07 btw

 

I have went to Nitrogen in my tires instead of air. It is not as sensitive to temperature change as compressed air, that is one reason why planes have nitrogen in their tires

 

do a search.

the lugs on our trucks are retarded. they are actually 20mm lugs with 1mm of dumbass chrome foil wrapped around them for the total 21mm. what happens is the wrap swells off the lugs and makes them a fat 21.5mm. a 22 fits, but is a poor substitute.

i am gonna order new aftermarket lugs from wheelers as soon as i get off my ass.

 

It warmed up this afternoon and it went off lol

 

my light always comes on when i am in the backwoods hunting. exactly the worst time for that light to come on. really rattles your security, being so far from any compressed air.

i think it is because my truck is freezing it's ass off. and i run nitrogen in my tires.

 

I get the tmps light once in a while during cold mornings...seems it happens after the 4 tires warm up but the spare stays cold. Maybe that's why Toyota stopped putting a sensor in the spare?

 

I have an 07 Tacoma with the TPMS that is on and wont reset using the reset button, it just flashes and then goes back to being solid.
BUT, in reading this thread i see people suggest i check the spare.
MY spare is on the truck, the wheel/tire that was on the truck in the bed of the truck with a shredded tire on it after a blow out.
In just a bit i will take the shredded unit out of the truck, will it reset then?
EDit:
No it will not.
Spare is in garage, tried to reset indicator, it starts to flash and continues and then goes solid again.
Is this BECAUSE there is no spare?
How does this system sense the low pressure and where are the sensors?

 

yes..the spare's sensor is missing. get the tire fixed and put it back "near" the truck.

I recently put 4 new 285 75 16's on my tacoma and the TPMS light came on, I took the spare off the truck, and have nothing down there as of now... will this keep the dash light on?
