Default 2006 GS300 Tire Pressure Light

I started my car and the tire pressure low indicator came on. I checked the tires and they were all at 29psi. The door stated 33psi so I inflated them to this pressure. The tire pressure indicator is still on.

How do I reset the indicator?

Thanks!

In my 2006 GS owners manual the reinitialization procedure is on page 444.

If your light didn't go out, make sure the Main/2nd set switch under the passenger dash didn't get accidentally pushed making you car think set 2 is on the car. This will also set off an idiot light that will not go out with the addition of air. Set the switch to Main and the light should go out if the tires up to pressure.

Remember in the cold whether, tires will lose 1 PSI for every 10 degree drop in ambient temperature. Adding air will rectify the idiot light.

Any local tire shop will be able to quickly sort the issue out for you no problem. I have to say as a lexus driver I dont like dash lights AT ALL. They frustrate the hell out of me.

I got the same problem, but its just this one tire in the rear. I keep adding air to it and it'll go away, then couple days later the light will come back on. Any suggestions?
