Cannot reset TPMS light
Just picked up a 2010 with 103k miles well maintained. So as the subject suggests I cannot reset the Tpms light i did check the tire pressure and tried to reset pressing the button under the steering column but no luck. What am I missing here. Please guide thanks

Yeah tried all that but wasn't able to reset the sensors. Yeah looks like I have few bad sensors is it easy to order them online and replace or is it a pain the back process.

They're like $40 a piece. Is it worth that to you to have the light off?
The batteries in them die and they no longer work. There are youtubes that show you how to replace the battery but it just isn't worth it to me. I'm pretty uptight about keeping things operational in my cars but this just isn't one of them. Hell I scoured junkyards finding all the dash pieces for my 72 F100 just so there were no empty holes in the dash. The TPMS light has been on in my daughter's 2007 Prius for at least 5 years and it just isn't worth it to me to fix it. That's the one light I can deal with.

Not worth it, I check my tire pressures every few weeks, especially now the weather is getting colder, always more reliable.

If the light blinks 10 times after you start the engine then one or more tire sensors are bad, and most likely the battery is gone. I would not recommend you to replace the battery but you can get 4 OEM sensors from Aliexpress like I did and you can reprogram them via Techstream (if you don't have Techstream you can get it from Ali). Everything would be around $60.

Costco will replace 4 TPMS sensors for about $240, of course doing the spare will increase this price. I had it done on my HS250h. Make an appointment and they can check inventory to be sure they have your sensors in stock. This includes removing the tires then remounting and balancing them afterward. Costco does do a Nitrogen fill for what that is worth.
It was the best price I found for this service as it is almost impossible to remove and remount tires by yourself.
