The Toyota Highlander has various driving modes that can be selected depending on weather and road conditions.
#Dashlights how to#
For details on how to reset the TPMS, see Toyota Highlander tire pressure light reset. For further information on what cold tire pressure means and how to check tire pressures when cold or hot, see cold tyre pressure explained. Tire pressures should always be adjusted when cold. Other common causes is due to sensor damage during tire change or rotation, sensor battery expired, or fitted tires that are not in accordance with Toyota’s guidelines. If a tire has been fitted without a sensor (such as the compact spare), the warning light will flash. The Toyota Highlander / Toyota Kluger uses sensors located in each tire to transmit pressure data to the vehicle’s receiver. If the tire pressure warning light flashes, it means there’s a fault with the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). This may be due to a sudden loss of pressure (puncture) or a gradual pressure loss due to changes in ambient temperatures. The Toyota Highlander / Toyota Kluger illuminates to alert that one or more tires has a loss of pressure. For further information, see reasons why the engine warning light is on. If the engine light continues to flash, have the vehicle serviced immediately. If the engine light flashes, reduce speed and avoid high engine load. However, have the problem fixed as soon as possible to prevent vehicle breakdown or further problems. Provided that you are not experiencing a loss of engine power or engine misfiring, you can usually continue driving with the engine warning light on for a short period.
#Dashlights code#
The scan equipment then reads the fault code and helps the engineer in locating the problem. Usually when the engine light comes on, a fault code is stored in the vehicle’s ECU. The first step to take if the engine warning light comes on is to have diagnostic scan equipment connected to the vehicle to read fault codes. Electronic automatic transmission control system.The check engine light / malfunction indicator light (MIL) comes on when a fault has been detected with the vehicle’s: The Toyota Highlander / Toyota Kluger check engine warning light does not indicate a single fault and is instead generic, meaning that there are many malfunctions that can trigger the warning. If the radiator fan is working and the warning light goes off after adding fluid, you can continue your journey. The radiator cooling fan operates with the air con system – check the fan is working. Once fluid is added, switch on the engine and the air conditioning system. In an emergency situation, normal water can be used, but the system must be flushed and a proper coolant mixture inserted as soon as possible.

Level should fall between the FULL and LOW level indicator. If you observe coolant leaking from the system, contact a Toyota workshop.Ĭheck coolant levels on the reservoir tank. Allow the engine plenty of time to cool and check hoses and radiator for any leaks. Immediately switch off the air conditioning system, stop the vehicle when safe to do so and switch off the engine. You may also experience steam coming from under the hood. If the needle on the Toyota Highlander’s / Kluger’s temperate gauge enters the red zone and you experience a loss of engine power, it means the engine coolant is overheating.
