1) go to a gas station with an air pump. Unless u have an inflator/compressor at home with the tireattachment
2) lower all 5 air pressures including the spare in the trunk to maybe about 28 PSI
3) now reset the TPMS (on the 07 there is a button to "calibrate" the TPMS and it is located under the dash. I presume it is the same on the 08.)
4) now bring the pressue back up to 30/32 or whatever it says on the door area
If this doesn't work, it is possible u have a defective TPMS
but my bet right now would be that someone "calibrated" the TPMS to the current tire pressure so the light is constantly on. It happened to me before when my daughter was messing around and hit that button.
Try inflate tires a couple of lbs. above recommended pressure. On some vehicles you have to drive for a day or 2 before it resets itself.If no luck a tps(tire pressure sensor) may be bad.
Hi there: First I suggest checked all pressure levels in the tires and then re-initialized the TPWS system. The buttom to do this on a 2007 ES350 is slightly out of site under the driver's side of the dash just past the Air Bag System panel. Also, I suggest read instructions in the Owner's Manual. Aboiut TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitor Sensor) location check the spare.
I recommend that the TPMS be initialized every time tire pressure is changed.
Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.
There is no asstton* on the 2008 ES350 to switch off the traction control (( pain in the *** when it snows+slippery )).
From forums online, and I\'ve personally tested/used this...
Keep the hand brake on (( its near the left leg )) when u switch on the car... And in the next few seconds, hit and release the brake twice, then keeping your leg on the brake pedal, release the hand brake, and put it on again (( twice, your right leg on the brake all this while )), and then when the hand brake is on, hit and release the brake twice...
You will need to do this only immediately after the car starts, and it needs to be done in under 30 seconds (( from forums, never needed more than 10 seconds to do the whole thing ))..
They do not recommend it cause apparently, the torque generated can cause the wheels to spin so much that it causes tires to burn out soon... Good luck!
I brought my RX350 to the dealer for this problem before. They told me to inflate my tires to 36psi for winter time although the recommended pressure is 30 psi
the tire in the trunk has a sensor also check the spare tire pressure , only the dealer will tell you this after you are charged to mount and balance the spare in the trunk..
