How do I check my Toyota TPMS?

Checking Toyota TPMS
To check your Toyota TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System), you can follow these steps:
1. Manual Tire Inspections: TPMS is designed to provide a safety alert in the event of a significant loss of tire pressure, but it does not replace manual inspections. It is important to regularly check each tire to ensure it is inflated to the correct air pressure and has sufficient tread depth.
2. Use TPMS Tools: Toyota TPMS tools can be used to check and diagnose the TPMS system. These tools provide comprehensive information on the mechanical and electrical procedures for TPMS replacement, including service requirements, special tools reference guide, description and operation of the TPMS system, warning indicator reset procedure, system retrain/relearn procedure, tire pressure sensor replacement procedure, and more.
3. Verify Spare Tire TPMS: Some Toyota Camry models since 2006 have the option to purchase the vehicle with a spare tire that has a TPMS sensor. During the relearn procedure, it is important to activate the spare tire TPMS sensor to reset the system properly and write all the TPMS IDs to the vehicle’s ECU. Failure to activate the spare tire TPMS sensor may result in the TPMS light indicating a TPMS malfunction.
4. Check for TPMS Reset Button: Another way to check if your Toyota vehicle has TPMS is to find the reset button located below the steering wheel, near the hood release latch. This button is used to reset the TPMS system and can help determine if your vehicle is equipped with TPMS.
Please note that these steps are general guidelines, and it is always recommended to consult your vehicle’s manual or contact a Toyota dealership for specific instructions related to your vehicle model and year.
