If the warning light blinks:
The tire pressure warning system may
be malfunctioning. Contact your Toyota
dealer.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
The tire pressure warning system does
not function properly under certain cir-
cumstances. In the following cases, the
low tire pressure warning light may not
come on even if the tire inflation pres-
sure is low, or it may come on when
the tire inflation pressure is actually
normal.
Electric devices or facilities using simi-
lar radio wave frequencies are nearby.
A radio set to similar frequencies is in
use.
A lot of snow or ice covers the ve-
hicle, in particular, around the wheels
or wheel housings.
The tires are not equipped with an air
pressure sensor.
Snow tires or tire chains are used.
Non−genuine Toyota wheels are used.
The sensor battery is expired.
Radio waves from the air pressure sen-
sor installed on the spare tire cannot
be received.
CAUTION
The use of non genuine wheels will
cause the air pressure sensors to
transmit the electronic code in dif-
ferent manner, resulting in the sys-
tem failure.
The use of different type of tires
with genuine wheels may also
cause the malfunction of the sys-
tem.

When replacing the wheels, be sure to
install air pressure sensors on the
wheels.
There are 3 ways to set up the air pres-
sure sensors: a. Remove the sensor from the old wheel and install it to the new wheel.
b. Keep the same wheel with air pressure sensor and replace only the tire.
c. Use a new wheel and sensor. In this case, you have to register an ID code
for a new sensor.
CAUTION
Have the tires, wheels or sensors re-
placed and ID codes registered by a
Toyota dealer. If you need sensors,
purchase from a Toyota dealer.
