I recently bought my wife a 2013 ES 350 ultra luxury and the PCS light is on. I wanted to activate the PCS system to try driving with it but I can't find the on/off switch. I read the encyclopedia of a manual that came with the car and it says it's in the glove box. I looked all over in the glove box and I couldn't find it. I also looked under the steering wheel where the tpms reset is in case it was located there. Anyone know where it is? Thanks.

Open glove box, look on right hand side. Should be quite obvious, unless the switch has been removed. Has your car been in for the recall?

I checked the right hand side of the glove box since that's what the manual had. No switch. It doesn't look like it removed. Glove box appears normal. Not sure about the recall. While researching it on here I have read threads about the 2013's having recall for the PCS system due to the tiny metal bridge incident.

Are you certain that your vehicle actually has the PCS and that you aren't confusing some other light, such as the one for parking sensors, for a PCS light? While PCS was available in the 2013 ES, I think that it was fairly rare for a 2013 ES to be equipped with the PCS system.

Sounds like it was disabled by the dealer for the recall. The parts are starting to be available, check with your dealer to assure you are notified when they are available.

I contacted the service dept about the fix a few days ago, and they said parts are coming in slowly, and pretty much all of them are going to new cars that have been grounded by the recall, and that it still going to be a bit before I'll be able to get the repair made, most likely a month or two.

Thanks for the update.

Thanks everyone. I'll check with the dealership when I take it in for its next service.
