The tire pressure light came on indicating low air in tire. Purchased new tires at goodyear, checked pressure. light is still on.
How do I get it turned off?
Contrary to popular belief the indicator light does not reset itself. Once you put in the proper tire pressure in all tires including the spare you must reset the indicator light. The reset button is located on the driver side underneath the dash panel. Stick your on the break pedal, turn and look up. You will see the reset button. With th engine on and park break on,push and hold te button for 5 seconds. The indicator light will turn off and you are all set.
Make sure you check the spare tire too; had this problem on another model and the dealer said it was the spare which is also monitored. Good news in case you need it one day.

You probably didn't need new tires unless you had some miles on it. Remember that the spare tire also has a pressure monitor as well. It most likely is causing the low tire pressure light on the dash and only needs to be inflated back to what ever your other tires are set to. I had the same problem on my RX and took it back to the dealership where they told me since the spare is exposed to the same elements (it's under the back of the RX - you have to use the tire iron to let the spare down), it will inevidably lose air.
Good luck.

My dealer reset free of charge. However, they now say the anti-lock actuator needs replacing - part price $3700. Seems the actuator controls the system.
