My 2011 GS350 tire pressure warning light is on. The handbook describes how to synchronize the system using a button on the dash. Unfortunately I can't find a button. Does any one know exactly where it is located? I realize the sensor may be bad, but first I would like to check or calibrate it as described for an out of range tire.
When you start the car the light is solid you have a low tire. If when you start the car it flashes a sensor is dead. If you try to push the button on a system with a dead sensor the system might go into lock out mode

When your tire light came on did you check all the tire pressure to see if they were good? If you have checked the psi on all 4 tires and they were good. Then more likely the sensors battery have finished. You will need to buy new sensors, I like to use Denso brand, and I purchased them from rockauto. Before you install the new sensor, with your phone snap a clear pic of the serial number, and box of each sensor, you can also write them down just incase. Then have a tire shop mount the new sensors, and see if they are able to program them, if not take it to a mechanic or dealer if you dont have a techstream software. The tech will run his scanner and will clear out the old serial numbers, and install the new serial numbers that you installed.
