Radio/TPMS

If anyone can help that would be awesome. I have a 2019 Taco sr5, the radio doesn't want to turn on and the TPMS light is still on. But all my tires are filled up, there is no puncture or anyting of the sort on the tires.

Does anyone have an ideas? Suggestions would be appreciated.

 

I would get the TPMS scanned by a

$219 Autel TS501 PRO, 2025 TPMS Programming Tool Same as TS508, Up of TS501 TS408S, Relearn Activate 99% TPMS Sensors, Program Autel MX-Sensor 315/433MHz, TPMS Reset & Diagnostics, Lifetime Update

Autel TS501 or similar by any tire shop...verify you actually have sensors installed in the wheels. As for the radio, you will either have to do some troubleshooting or take it in. Start with a fuse and check connections on the back of the radio. Easy to do in less than 10 minutes with a 10mm.

 

Welcome to TW.
Not sure what's up with your radio. Is this a new problem?
Is the TPMS light on solid or is it flashing?
Flashing usually happens with a rapid loss of pressure.
Solid on light often signals the end of life for one or more sensors - time to replace (usually the battery in them dies).

 

Try the TPMS reset located under the steering column.

Read your owners manual or google for directions on proper reset.

 

Good suggestion! I always forget about that stupid button.

 

One bad sensor means none of them will work. As others have stated, get them checked.

 

Thank you all for the suggestions. I will let you guys know what I find.

 

Yep, if you have a sensor that lost connection/died, the TPMS light will flash for a bit then stay solid. I have one that only does this on long freeway road trips

 

Taco world, up date.
When I checked the radio, wires looked fine, nothing seemed out of the ordinary. When I pushed the reset button nothing happened. light is still flashing for a few seconds then its a solid light. I took it to the dealership. Here is what they said. Radio wiring is good, but the radio it self is a faulty head unit. For the TPMS and key phob they said that there is a faulty transmitter ECU. I asked the guy where the faulty transmitter is held, he said in the head board. I feel i can do the work myself. The radio I also can do the work myself.
Any DIY videos on how to replace the Faulty transmitter?

 

This may sound silly but have you tried to disconnect the battery. Let it sit for like 20 minutes and then reconnect it. I had aftermarket TPMS sensors that the truck wouldn’t read. Then I was working on electrical else where and disconnected my battery. When I reconnect it the TPMS magically worked again. The dealership wanted to replace brand new TPMS sensors.

 

Did both of these happen at or around the same time? That's a weird failure to have. Did you install anything new on the truck that required wiring? Even though dealer said wiring is good, there could still be possible rodent damage if they get into/behind that area.

Changing both the radio and tpms unit is probably not hard but tpms unit may need programming after installing so consider that. You could always get a used one from a junk yard to try out.
