traction lights wont go off

[rvcahawaii808]

i just got my car back from firestone after getting an alignment. my TPMS light was already on when i took it in and they said they filled up my tires but its still on. the guy said that it'll turn itself off after a while. HOWEVER my VSC TRAC and VSC OFF lights are staying on. if i turn off the car then turn it back on...the VSC lights are off, when i go into R or D thats when they come on. i tried to turn my center diff on and off but that didnt turn it off.

any ideas?

I have the exact same problem in my '04. You'll also notice that when these lights are on, the traction control will not engage. I've heard that it is usually a sensor issue, and that it can be fixed by simply unhooking the battery and then reconnecting. That did not work for mine. My local Toyota dealer says that the sensor may need to be re-calibrated and that they can do it in the shop for around $70.

TPMS should go off pretty much immediately following pressure correction.

Did they check your spare?
