Car Forum / Toyota / Toyota Trucks / July 2007Low tire Pressure light??
Hello Everyone, Just bought a 2004 Toyota 4runner Limited. 4 Brand new tires. Looking at the tires, they all look fully inflated. I noticed the "low tire pressure light" on in the dashboard. Any suggestions on getting rid of this light? Anyway to reset?? Thanks in advance. Rick No manual? Look for a reset button under the steering wheel at the bottom of the dash. It should be reset any time the tires are changed or pressure adjusted. It's also possible that someone scarfed a presser sensor while changing the tires. > Hello Everyone, > Just bought a 2004 Toyota 4runner Limited. 4 Brand new tires.

I inflated my spare to the recommendation pressure and now the tire light does not come on. >>> Hello Everyone, >>> Just bought a 2004 Toyota 4runner Limited. 4 Brand new tires. Looking at [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] >That's true. I inflated my spare to the recommendation pressure and >now the tire light does not come on. Do I fill the spare according to the spare's inflation limits? Or do I need to fill the spare with the same amount of pressure as the working 4 tires?? Hope that makes sense >>>> Hello Everyone, >>>> Just bought a 2004 Toyota 4runner Limited. 4 Brand new tires.

I use the recommended "cold tire inflation pressures and wheel size" chart listed in the Toyota Owner's Manual. The tire pressure varies with tire size, type, off-road package, cab size, etc. >>>>> Hello Everyone, >>>>> Just bought a 2004 Toyota 4runner Limited. 4 Brand new tires.

No, the pressure is set when you perform the "reset procedure", and the warning triggers when the pressure varies from that by a pre-determined amount. >> it's my understanding the sensors would be looking for pressures >> approximate to the recommended chart, either in the maual, or the door [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > warning triggers when the pressure varies from that by a pre-determined > amount. ok, cool. ps- I taped over my idiot light on my instrument panel when I swapped wheels and tires. ;-) Signature~Mike~ 45°7'58"N 89°9'5"W > Hello Everyone, > Just bought a 2004 Toyota 4runner Limited. 4 Brand new tires.

The dealer needs to do the reset. Thanks for all the input. Rick |
