fix the problem.... either you have a bad sensor, or incorrect air pressure

On my canadian 08 sedan that icon represents the hand brake, it goes out when i release the hand brake and comes back on when i engage it. If that icon represents tire pressure on your car what icon represents the handbrake?

i think you'd better check your brake system.

in the states it means tire pressure low or in some cases too high. Look on the side of your drives door it tell wat pressure your tires should be at 32 i think. If its not at that pressure then you will get (!)
O and there is a light that says BRAKE in red when our hand brake is on. |

Just to be clear, Canadian Yarises don't have the tire pressure sensors. Also, they don't have any words on the display - you have to figure it out from the icon. Why? Bilingualism is official government policy. You'd have to use both official languages.

when you added air did you check the pressure with a tire gauge?

Do not trust the tire gauges at the gas stations. They are always inacurate as they are dropped and run over multiple times.

Get yourself a nice AccuGage dial gauge, dont go digital, spend about $15 to $20 it will last you for many many years and good insurance for obtaining great gas mileage and safety. Ron
