Introduction

2007 model year IS 250 and IS 350 vehicles are equipped with a direct-type Tire Pressure Warning System (TPWS). Each tire has a tire pressure warning valve/sensor, and the measured tire pressure data is transmitted to the Tire Pressure Warning System antenna/receiver to the Tire Pressure Warning System ECU.

During Pre-Delivery Service (PDS), the tire pressure warning valves/sensors must be activated according to the procedure in this bulletin.
