Resetting the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) in a 2020 Toyota Highlander
Tools Required
  • Tire pressure gauge (optional, for verifying tire pressures)
  • Tire inflator (if needed for adjustments)
Reset Instructions

Once you have ensured that all tire pressures are correct and the tires are in good condition, you can reset the TPMS as follows:

  1. Start the Vehicle:

    • Insert the key fob into the ignition and start the vehicle. Ensure the vehicle is in the "ON" position without starting the engine, or simply start the engine.

  2. Locate the TPMS Reset Button:

    • The TPMS reset button is typically located beneath the steering wheel or near the left side of the dashboard. Refer to the owner's manual if you have difficulty finding it.

  3. Press and Hold the TPMS Reset Button:

    • Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the tire pressure warning light blinks three times, then release the button. This indicates that the system is resetting.

  4. Drive the Vehicle:

    • Drive the vehicle for about 10 to 30 minutes at speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h). The TPMS should recalibrate itself during this time.

  5. Verify the Reset:

    • After driving, check the dashboard. The tire pressure warning light should be off. If the light remains on, repeat the reset procedure or seek professional diagnosis.

Final Checks

  • If the warning light is still illuminated after following the reset procedure:
    • Check for any additional issues with the TPMS sensors, as they may need to be reprogrammed or replaced.
    • If you experience persistent issues, it is advisable to consult with a qualified automotive technician for further diagnosis.

By following these steps, you should be able to successfully reset the TPMS in your 2020 Toyota Highlander.
