How to disable a Tacoma TPMS Dash Light

In this video I show you the two ways to turn off a Generation 2 (2005 - 2015) Toyota Tacoma Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) dash light. This is a simple "hack" that anyone can do.
Depending on your TPMS Controller there are TWO possible ways to turn off the light.
1.) Grounding the Blue wire or 2.) Applying 12V Blue wire.
After 7 years of ownership my TPMS never really functioned correctly. The light would randomly go on and off. After resetting it, the light would stay off for a couple weeks then come back on even when all 5 tires had sufficient and matching air pressure. Over the last several years, I just ignored the light up until now. Realistically, if these actually gave me proper tire pressure readings, I would install new TPMS units.
Low cost TPMS: amzn.to/3VIgbpa
Denso TPMS: amzn.to/3VIgbpa
If you enjoyed this video and this hack worked for you, please consider buying me a coffee. I would appreciate your support:

Works perfectly on my 09 TRD off road with 12v hook up

Great video on the TPMS fix. I would use a plain alligator clip or other holder, the connected red wire makes it misleading. Just curious to know if the ECU threw any codes after the hack.

Thanks for the feedback. My code reader and it shows nothing wrong. Most basic store bought code readers only typically show something when the engine light is on. I'm not sure if a high end / factory code reader would register anything. The method I show is just "tricking" the ECU with a "high pin" value. Cheers

You grounded out the wrong side of the blue wire. You need to ground out the cut blue wire on the connector side. There is another YT video showing this and it works.

Thanks for commenting. That didn’t work for my truck. Not sure why. I grounded both sides and the light stayed on. Applying 12v worked. I’ll need to dig into the different schematics to figure out why. Cheers.

The second method worked on my 2006. (edit: I tested with the red/white wire, but ended up splicing in a fused wire to the yellow per this video, for the permanent fix)

My son has a 2006 and all we needed to do was ground his blue wire from the harness. Cheers.

⁠Mine is a late 06 and they must have changed by then. It has the black wire next to the blue, like in 07+

Schwabs quoted me $400.00 to replace them you make the call.

@MikeFreda Месяц назад
That’s not a bad deal. Hopefully those are good quality TPMS units. Unfortunately, there isn’t a Schwabs or a budget shop like that near me. I’m in Canada and most shops are way more than that. Cheers.

It's cheap enough these day for 2005-2015 Toyota Sienna, Tacoma, and others, to do it right. It's nice to have TPMS in case you are not paying attention during a drive........ However this looks cool, but not for shaky hand people like me....

Thanks for commenting. Yes, the "proper" solution is to put new TPMS sensors in. I would stick to OE ones which obviously cost a bit more. You do have to take the wheels off and partially remove the tire. You may need to rebalance the tire as well. Then have to pair the new sensors to your ECU. I suspect a shop will charge you well over $500.00 for this. Denso sensors alone are ~$75.00 each. As I mention the video, on my Tacoma its just an idiot light and had suspect behaviour. It does not give your proper PSI readings. Having a larger tire it's easy to see if it is low or flat. I just couldn't see myself dishing out that sort of money to make a light turn off. But yes, to feel safe and to do it right, replace them. Cheers

@@MikeFreda When I am done (tomorrow), it would have cost me $68.40 including mounting of the new sensors, but not the device which I split with a few friends. WIll it work for me, I will find out tomorrow.

Wow. That is dirt cheap. Hope it works out for you. Please let me know. Where I live no one could come close to that price.
