How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a Land Cruiser?
2 Answers
Methods to reset the tire pressure light on a Land Cruiser: 1. Adjust the tire pressure to below 2.3 bar, including the spare tire, and test drive for a few hundred meters; 2. Completely deflate all tires, including the spare tire, then reinflate and test drive again; 3. Turn the ignition switch on with the key but do not start the engine, then press and hold the SET tire pressure reset button until the tire pressure warning light flashes three times, release the SET button, wait a few minutes, and then turn off the power to reset the tire pressure light. The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) is a technology that can automatically monitor various tire conditions in real-time by recording tire rotation speed or using electronic sensors installed in the tires, providing effective safety protection for driving.
I've encountered this situation a few times myself—the tire pressure light suddenly comes on during long drives. First, you need to find a safe place to pull over and check. Use a tire pressure gauge to measure the pressure in all four tires. For a Land Cruiser, the normal tire pressure is generally around 2.3 to 2.5 bar, and the exact standard value is listed on the sticker on the door frame. If you find any tire with low pressure, use the onboard air pump to inflate it to the standard value. After that, start the vehicle, navigate to the vehicle settings menu on the center console screen, select the TPMS reset option, and hold the confirm button for 5 seconds. Once the screen shows 'calibrating,' you can drive off. Last time I reset it, the light turned off automatically after driving about two kilometers. If the light remains on after resetting, it might indicate a sensor issue, and it's best to get the battery status checked at a professional shop. Maintaining proper tire pressure regularly can help prevent this issue from recurring.
