Dash tire lite...

can anyone explain what I have to do to have this lite go out.. I have inflated my tires and tried the button under the dash to no avail..help..B

 

you check for a nail? did you have the tpms reset recently?

 

mine just comes on when it gets cold out, stupid thing is i havent had ANY sensors on since i got my truck. Ive tried the reset method and it never goes off. So whenever it gets warm out again it just shuts off.

 

If you keep it on long enough, it may burn out?

I have heard these things are pretty annoying. I am glad my truck doesn't have them. I have heard almost all manufacturers have this problem, not only Toyota.. Hopefully better technology comes along before my next vehicle purchase.

I'll check the spare this week some time ..thanks..
anymore advice let me know..b

 

I HATE THAT LIGHT. STUPID SHIT DOESNT EVEN TELL YOU WHAT TIRE.MY WIFE'S JUNK 2008 PONTIAC TELLS WHAT EACH TIRE HAS. MY SHIT NEVER GOES OUT

 

This is what happens when the government tries to mandate stuff....epic fail

 

If you turn your car on and it blinks for a lil while and then stays on then its your spare. If you turn your car and it blinks once or just stays on when you turn your car on then you need to air up. I hate that stupid light since I dont have a spare tire under there anymore. My friend and I did re did the gauges white and he just de soldered off the led to the stupid light!

 

Actually, if the light blinks for awhile, there is a fault in the tire pressure monitor system. Has nothing to do with the spare.

In your case, im guessing you removed your spare tire, and the system couldnt find that sensor anymore, thus causing a fault.
