Where is the tire pressure monitoring set button on the 2019 Highlander?
2 Answers
The tire pressure monitoring set button on the 2019 Highlander is located on the center console. Below is relevant information about the tire pressure monitoring system: 1. Introduction: The tire pressure monitoring system is a simple device that utilizes the existing ABS sensing function to compare the rotation counts of tires. An underinflated tire has a shorter circumference, causing it to rotate differently from other tires when driving. 2. Function: Its primary role is to automatically monitor tire pressure in real-time while driving, alerting drivers to tire leaks or low pressure to ensure driving safety. It serves as an early warning system that safeguards the lives of both drivers and passengers.
I've driven the Highlander multiple times, and in the 2019 model, the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) reset button is typically located in the lower dashboard area below the steering wheel, marked with a small 'SET' button. After parking and turning off the engine, press and hold it for 3-5 seconds to reset the system—the dashboard indicator will blink once to confirm success. It's recommended to perform this after tire changes or inflation to recalibrate the sensor baseline. Monthly tire pressure checks and resets help prevent false alarms, enhancing safety and fuel efficiency. If you can't locate it, refer to the owner's manual or inspect carefully under interior lighting. Don't confuse it with other buttons—its position is easy to overlook, so take time to familiarize yourself for hassle-free use. Maintaining this habit extends tire life, reduces risks, and ensures peace of mind while driving.
