System Malfunction Alert

[izzy]

Get a generic obd2 code reader, scan for codes, clear all codes. This has worked for me in the past. They likely performed an action that the safety sense didn’t care for.. I could be wrong, but try the $25 Walmart code reader first.

This chart must have been very lawyer influenced, or written by someone with room temp IQ.

So they're saying stock suspension + big tire = TSS unhappy?

That's hilarious because all the trucks aside from the TH and Pro have the same ride height, and a 32" tire on stock suspension, is less of a lift than 2.5"...

Possibly? The ECU thinks it was in an accident, could be simply resetting the codes. There was a thread a while back that had a similar problem and just reset the codes and all was good.

Just got back from the dealer called me an hour later saying it was the steering angle sensor that needed to be recalibrated. I just picked it up so far all is good. Everything cleared.

All these problems, think I'll just leave mine stock.

Starting to feel old, forgot steering angle sensors were a thing on these new trucks. Lol

Took it to Oreilly and they had to manually enter vehicle as nothing was populating when connected. Went inside and said no codes were showing up.

Just FYI for anyone else, Asked the dealer why the codes weren’t populating when I took it to auto parts store when they connected the OBD2 reader and their response was, the codes are specific only for Toyota, no one else can pull them up. Toyota makes it now to where u have to ONLY go to the dealer.

Sounds like your dealer is trying to steer you into their garage. I believe you can pull the codes with a device that uses the Techstream software (granted that it is more expensive than your common OBD2 reader).

Frankly that's just not true. While yes there are specific codes to Toyota, that's true of every auto manufacturer. Has been for decades now. Not all code readers are the same, and they all require updates yearly. Code readers and scanners can be purchased from all 3 tool trucks, Amazon, harbor freight, and even the autoparts store.

It's just a matter of chosen tool. Cheap ones don't have as much functionality, and don't get updated which is what the autoparts stores typically use which is why I stated in my earlier post that they may not be able to pull the code. Some scan tool companies don't get required updates out right away. But any reputable shop worth it's salt will have a scan tool (typically snap on) which requires a yearly subscription to get those updates immediately. Hell, it's common for some of the dealer techs to have the same scan tools as the third party shops just because some guys like having their own tools.

That's great. I literally just had this issue fixed today. But in my truck was a bad ABS Speed sensor. Shop that lifted my truck left the wire loose and as I drove it, friction with metal made a cut to the wire. That turned on the exact same lights as yours.

I’d like to put a leveling kit on mine.

BUT, for such a minor change in appearance it sure ends up being a costly endeavor.

Not if done properly..
