| Description of the problem | This is an update for the complaint regarding the failure of the tire pressure monitoring system on my 2005 toyota rav4. After finding a knowledgeable service manager who took the time to check, he found that there is a tire pressure sensor in the spare tire. My spare was just a little low on air and since correcting it, the light has not come on again. I was not able to find any reference to the spare having a sensor in the owner's manual. |
