If the light is flashing, we recommend that
you replace the engine oil at an early
opportunity depending on the driving and
road conditions. If the light comes on,
replace it as soon as possible.
The system must be reset after the
engine oil replacement. Reset the system
by the following procedure:1. Turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” position with the trip meter A reading
shown. (For details, see “Odometer and
two trip meters” on page 186 in this
Section.)
2. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position while holding down the trip
meter reset knob.
Hold down the knob for at least 5
seconds. The trip meter A indicates
“000000” and the light goes off.
If the system fails to reset, the light will
continue flashing.
(h) Low Fuel Level Warning Light
This light comes on when the fuel level
in the tank becomes nearly empty. Fill up
the tank as soon as possible.
On inclines or curves, due to the move-
ment of fuel in the tank, the low fuel level
warning light may come on earlier than
usual. (i) “ABS” Warning Light
The light comes on when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position. If
the anti
−lock brake system and the brake
assist system work properly, the light
turns off after a few seconds. Thereafter,
if either of the systems malfunctions, the
light comes on again.
When the “ABS” warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
following systems do not operate, but the
brake system still operates conventionally.
Anti −lock brake system
Brake assist system
Traction control system
“AUTO LSD” system
Vehicle stability control system
When the “ABS” warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
anti −lock brake system does not operate,
so that the wheels will lock up during a
sudden braking or braking on slippery
road surfaces.
If either of the following conditions oc-
curs, this indicates a malfunction some-
where in the components monitored by
the warning light system. Contact your
Toyota dealer as soon as possible to
service the vehicle.
The light does not come on when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON”
position, or remains on.
The light comes on while you are dri-
ving.
A warning light turning on briefly during
operation does not indicate a problem.
CAUTION
If the “ABS” warning light remains on
together with the brake system warn-
ing light, immediately stop your ve-
hicle at a safe place and contact your
Toyota dealer.
In this case, not only the anti lock
brake system will fail but also the
vehicle will become extremely unsta-
ble during braking.

(j) “VSC OFF” warning light
The light flashing warns that there is a
problem somewhere in the following.
Vehicle stability control system

The light will come on when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position, and
will go off after a few seconds.
If the light flashes on while driving, the
above mentioned systems do not work.
However, as conventional braking operates
when applied, there is no problem to con-
tinue your driving.
In the following cases, contact your Toyota
dealer:

(l) SRS Warning Light
This light will come on when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion. After about 6 seconds, the light
will go off. This means the systems of
the airbag and front seat belt preten-
sioners are operating properly.
This warning light system monitors the
airbag sensor assembly, front airbag sen-
sors, side and curtain shield airbag sen-
sors, curtain shield airbag sensors, driv-
er ’s seat position sensor, driver ’s seat belt

blies, inflators, “RSCA OFF” indicator light,
interconnecting wiring and power sources.
∗: The front passenger occupant classifica-
tion system includes the front passenger
occupant classification ECU, load sensor
and front passenger ’s seat belt buckle
switch.
If either of the following conditions occurs,
this indicates a malfunction somewhere in
the parts monitored by the warning light
system. Contact your Toyota dealer as
soon as possible to service the vehicle.

sure of one or more of your tires (except
for the temporary spare tire) is low. The
light comes on when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position. It goes off
after a few seconds. This indicates that
the tire pressure warning system is func-
tioning properly.
2052007 TUNDRA from Jul. ’07 Prod. (OM34463U)
If the light comes on, stop your vehicle in
a safe place as soon as possible and
check that the tire inflation pressure of all
four tires is as specified on the tire and
loading information label. (See “Checking
tire inflation pressure” on page 548 in
Section 7−2.) The light should go off 3 to
6 minutes after the tire inflation pressure
is adjusted.
If the warning light comes on after blink-
ing for 1 minute, the tire pressure warning
system may be malfunctioning. Contact
your Toyota dealer.

light on may damage the automatic
transmission.

“START”—Starter motor on. The key
will return to the “ON” position when
released.
For starting tips, see page 468 in Section
3.
“ON”—Engine on and all accessories
on.
This is the normal driving position.
“ACC”—Accessories such as the radio
operate, but the engine is off.
If you leave the key in the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position and open the driver’s
door, a buzzer will remind you to remove
the key.“LOCK”—Engine is off and the steering
wheel is locked. The key can be re-
moved only at this position.
You must push in the key to turn the key
from “ACC” to the “LOCK” position. The
selector lever must be put in the “P” posi-
tion before pushing the key.
Vehicles with engine immobilizer system—
Once you remove the key, the engine im-
mobilizer system is automatically set. (See
“Engine immobilizer system” on page 21
in Section 1−
2.)
When starting the engine, the key may
seem stuck at the “LOCK” position. To
free it, first be sure the key is pushed all
the way in, and then rock the steering
wheel slightly while turning the key gently.
Approximately five hours after the engine
is turned off, you may hear sound coming
from underneath the deck for several min-
utes. This is normal operation and does
not indicate a malfunction. (See “Leak
detection pump” on page ix.)
It is not a malfunction if the needles on
all meters and gauges move slightly when
the ignition switch is turned to the “ACC”,
“ON” or “START” position.
NOTICE
Do not leave the key in the “ON”
position if the engine is not running.
The battery will discharge and the
ignition could be damaged.
