Tire Pressure Warning Light won’t go off
Tried a search without luck so thanks in advance for reading this.
Tires are checked and recommended pressure in each, including spare. Tire pressure warning display light stays on. Visual display of tires show correct pressure and none lit up. Scrolling through display modes - no change. Restart car - no change.
Sensors are sending correct pressure so seems it must be something with the dash display. Has anyone had this problem, or does anyone have a suggestion of a cure?

Has this been resolved, or are you still needing advice on this?

Jmcraney and Colfax: thank you for taking the time to reply.
i did as colfax suggested and found the procedure in the manual. Worked perfectly and resolved issue. The hardest part was locating the reset button. It is way down below the steering column, almost to the brake pad. I am not sure what caused the need for the reset, but very happy it was such an easy fix. Thanks -

Had my tires inflated to 37psi and the light came on. Checked the driver's door sill and Lexus recommends 33psi. Good to know the system works and it's pretty sensitive to just a few psi.

I think you need to develop a better understanding of the TPMS. The TPMS only provides alerts for tire pressure reports that are below the warning thresholds. The warning threshold for a 33PSI benchmark would be 25PSI. All 5 tires have independent warning thresholds and can be set over a wide range.
