I've removed all TPMSs and placed them inside the spare tire in the trunk. Works like a charm and the light has not come back on since. Good idea if you switch rims often.

Cheers

pbxcomm, have u disabled the TPMS w/ the Techstream? Please list instructions.

Toyota recalibrated my TPMS for $120. What a scam!

Imagine how much more money service departments make off TPMS since they became mandatory.

Disabling TPMS is illegal/federal offense.

I really hate government mandates and your post just made me want to disable the TPMS instead of replacing them.

But is there a solution to disabling the TPMS while clearing the lights?
