Default ABS and Tire Pressure Light wont turn off!

Recently the ABS and Tire Pressure light came on, I did what I usually did to reset the Tire Pressure Light but it didn't work. Its a stock 05 tC. I haven't hit any bumps or anything to mess the rims or something like that..

I even tried doing what it says on this FAQ (http://home.cfl.rr.com/icdedppl/faq.html#c15) but no luck. The light never turns off.

Any ideas?

* Is this the right place to post this? If not mods please move. Thx.

well, if it is an 06 or earlier, it uses the abs wheel speed data to determine if a tire is low, so I would have the abs system checked. If under warranty, just take it to the dealer. If the abs system is jacked up, the tire warning sensor will also be messed up.

i would take it to toyota to check it out. all i know is that if the tire pressure light comes on, it means you either have too little pressure or too much pressure, but i think the safest thing to do would be to take it into toyota. Because you say you never hit a bump or anything, it should be covered under warranty
