low tire pressure warning
I keep my cars tire pressure at about 45 psi and I was wondering how I could raise the low pressure warning to 45 psi instead of below 32 psi. Does the dealership have to do this for me or is it something I could do myself? I'd appreciate any help, thanks.

Re: low tire pressure warning
The alarm pressure point can be set by you.
After setting the tire pressure to the point you wish, in the glove compartment on the extreme left side, you should see a small switch on the mounting frame. This is the Tire Pressure Reset Switch. Here are the instructions from the Service Manual: (I don't have the OWNER's MANUAL with me right now.) 4. TIRE PRESSURE WARNING RESET SWITCH I have only recently received my TCH, :) so I cannot verify this information.• By operating the tire pressure warning reset switch, the tire pressure warning ECU can be set to issue a warning at an inflation pressure that corresponds to the type of tires. • Operate the tire pressure warning reset switch only after the inflation pressures of all tires have been a djusted on the vehicle. • To initialize the system, press and hold the tire pressure warning reset switch for 3 seconds or longer with the ignition switch on (IG). After the initialization process has started, the warning light blinks 3 times (1 second on, 1 second off). • During initialization, the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter measures the inflation pressure of the tires, and registers the signals that are transmitted into the tire pressure warning ECU at a frequency of once per minute. The initialization process is completed when signals from the all tires have been received. I hope this helps. |

Tire pressures are treated like MPG on this site, the bigger the numbers the better. |

Auto manufacturers got away from solid tires back in the teens. Maybe some people don't realize that?

http://www.toyotaiguide.com/content/07Camry/iGuide.htm I knew about it (I even have it bookmarked), but unfortunately, I couldn't open the page.:confused: My TCH was being used by others and I normally keep the Owner's Guide in the car (unless I want to do some "light" reading) |
Re: low tire pressure warning
By the looks of it, Toyota should offer a high tire pressure warning as well! LOL
