just sayin air pressure is not right.. but if you check them and there fine one of the sensors are bad then. have you put fix-a-flat in them at all?

low pressure or you have custom wheels with out the sensor

you ruined your tire pressure monitor by using fix-a-flat..... NEVER use fix-a-flat

Xs 10000000
working at big O for the past 2 months and ive bet ive put in 100 cuz ppl put fix a flat in the tire.... its crazy but it eats the base of the sensor and destroys the chip inside.

my buddy at toyota told me a while ago when i tried to help a friend she had replaced one and it wouldnt read the new one, so i tried to get it to program with our tool at work. but the only way is to have the toyota read and program the serial number in.

so the sensor is fucked

is there anyway to get the ! off the dash ?

ah.. a quick question like that..

does insurance say a thing about the tire pressure monitor if an accident occurs? I mean, if you don't give a shit about the sensors, and you know for fact your tires have the right pressure??

Buy a new sensor and have it installed

Like they say, out of sight, out of mind

why didnt you use your spare tire?
did you remove it ?
if you did that would be the reason for the light on the spare has a sensor too!
if you didn't did you check the tire pressure of the spare?

The spare doesn't have a sensor on the Yaris.
