How long ago did you change the sensor? It will take some time to reset itself, and the light will turn off. If indeed the sensor was the culprit.

Ok I found the zero point calibration, and I tried it out. Everything works till the last step it won't blink rapidly. It will erase the triangle check AWD light though. I must of made a wrong contact with the pins, and it came on. Try this at your own risk. I'm not responsible for anything if it goes sideways on you.

If someone has the correct procedure please post it up.

​​​​​​The car won't move?

I just went out and tested my car, and it felt like it had reset. It was stiff driving at first then it's all to normal again after a few miles.

By any chance are you running aftermarket wheels? A staggered setup perhaps?

The AWD will not like it if the right diameters are not met.
Did all the steps work for you?

Ok I figured this one out for my car 2010 IS250 AWD. For zero point calibration attached is the correct pins to use. The link in my first couple of post seems to be for older lexus models. The instructions are the same just different pin locations.

Link Instructions:

http://www.toyota-4runner.org/5th-ge...libration.html



Correct pins CG, and TS locations. Remember the obdII port is under the driver side dash. You'll bee looking at it laying flat on your back facing up. The photo posted below is already rotated like you'll see it. So just follow the procedure on the link.

If you can check again the codes with a scanner. One preferably with ABS capability, and another thing you mentioned you had aftermarket wheels. What are the specs on these wheels?

Last if you have the stock 17x8 wheels mount them back and see if the problem is the aftermarket wheels.

I'm not sure if you have TPMS on your aftermarket wheels. As I'm not sure it would affect the AWD system either.

I had the same lights after I changed the alternator.
Turns out I bumped the wires on the cam sensor and the wire was broke just not separated.
I changed the plug and all is well.
