Can't find the Blind Spot Monitoring system under settings. On page 139 of the Owner's Manual it says, "Make sure not to cancel the systems accidentally". And that's just what I've done. Now how do I get this back? And why would there be a way to "Cancel" a feature that can be turned ON/OFF?

View 8 RepliesI have a 2013 Avalon V6 Limited.
On 5 or 6 occasions, during the 8 weeks I have owned it, a yellow warning light has appeared, together with a message on the Multifunction Display stating: "Check Blind Spot Monitoring System." While this is displayed, the BSM does not work. Turning the ignition off and then on again resolved the problem immediately each time, with one exception, when I had to do it twice. Pushing the On-Off button for the BSM on the left side of the dash did not resolve the problem.
We're looking to buy a 2013 or 2014 RX350 and have a couple questions about equipment. Specifically, is blind spot monitoring standard equipment for either year 2013 or 2014 or is this an option?
If heated seats are listed as an option for an RX does this mean that "cooled" or Ventilated seats are automatically included for years 2013 or 2014? I ask because I've seen "heated" seats listed on Autotrader, but the controllers pictured include heated and cooled. Of the cars, we've looked at they only had both heated/cooled or nothing. We haven't seen heated only.
If the RX does NOT have heated seats, is the leather still perforated for 2013/2014 models or is it solid like previous years?
Lately I've noticed the blind spot monitoring light in the mirrors is coming on randomly when I'm driving down the road with no cars around me.
When having my phone hooked via blue tooth and playing music the song will change over the speakers but the screen will still show the prior song I was listening to. Any thoughts?
I'm getting a little concerned that as this car ages all the sophisticated electronics might start failing.
In my 2010 Prius,My wife and I and another friend have noticed a blind spot behind the mirror on the windshield, such that I don't "see" drivers approaching from the right on a "4-way" intersection. I am a cautious driver, yet noticed several years ago that I occasionally started up across an intersection before the car on my right....I didn't SEE THEM.
This is because the mirror is mounted relatively low. I am only 6'1'' but my wife who is 5"10 also noticed this problem. In San Francisco, going down a hill, it is often hard to see a car approaching from the right. I am going to the dealer for something else and will ask that my mirror be remounted.
Really like the Blind Spot Monitor system in the car. The visual part of with the mirrors works great but the volume part in the car is too low especially with radio on. I'm told by Dealership Service that it cannot be adjusted. I find this hard to believe especially seeing this is an all electronic system. There's got to be a way to have a volume control or menu control on it????
View 1 RepliesI have a blind spot sensor option on ny is, but im curious about where it is located beside the mirror icon. I dont have those visible circle sensors on my rear bumper.
View 2 RepliesHaving problem with the blind spot detector ( BSD ) been intermittent on and off at times. This is a Santa Fe Sport 2014, has been in the shop two times with the same issue and no results.
View 2 RepliesI just noticed this morning that both rear parking assist and BSD on my 2015 SFS Limited are not working. Other than the button near the shifter to turn off the audible alarm for parking, I don't recall any other buttons or settings that would turn both systems off. I won't have access to the user manual until later this evening. I did clean off the rear parking sensors but that didn't change anything. Am I missing something?? What's common? Perhaps a fuse?
View 12 RepliesIs it possible to upgrade my 2010 rx450 mirrors to add automatic folding and blind spot warning? Want to keep the car but would love those features.
View 2 RepliesThe left side (driver's mirror) indicates and beeps if a car is in the blind spot however, the right mirror works sometimes and then does not. Also, it will "alert" once in a while and sporadically.
First, where are the sensors? Could I unplug for five minutes and let them reset? Second, this almost sounds like a software glitch?
2014 2.4L Nav/tech package.
Need to enhance the rear view of the blind spot, if I install it on the existing outside rear view mirror..
View 14 RepliesJust bought the car last week and I am getting somewhat used to the "bells' and whistles" as a new Prius owner. The owner's manual as well as the Nav/Entune manual describe the Tire Pressure Monitoring System as having not only an icon for low pressure on the dash indicator display, but "if equipped" a separate display on the Nav/Entune display which will give the readout for all tires including the low tire "when it senses a low tire condition" (taken from the manual).
I thought my v-five was equipped with the second feature but it will not display when selecting the "Car" button on the panel. I tried deflating a tire and in fact the icon appeared on the dash,(for a low tire) but I still was unable to read individual tire pressures on the Nav/Entune display.
My dealer says the only place he has seen the individual pressure display was on a Highlander.
I am having a problem with my V6 early VIn Egg tire pressure monitoring system fault. I received the error so I checked the tire pressure on all tires. They were at the recommended levels. I therefore took it in for service and they had to replace the control unit. After picking it up from service, I received the error again. I took it back to service and they tried resetting the control unit. Well as expected, I received the error again. Currently, my egg is back in the shop as they are trying to resolve this problem. I also decided to have them fix the remote range since it's in the shop.
View 8 RepliesThe ABS light comes on as well as the tire monitoring system light. I have had it to the dealer and they can not find anything wrong.
View 1 RepliesOkay, so 2004 Touareg. The tire pressure monitoring system is constantly on, it says that it's the left rear sensor. we've replaced the left rear sensor (twice) then we find out that the antennae that receives the signal that is broadcast from the sensor was dangling in between the fender and the fender liner and there was duct tape wrapped around the unit.
It seems as though a previous dealer decided that duct taping the antennae back to the fender was the best way to fix the problem. well now we have replaced the antennae, and the sensor and the problem is still there. I don't know if there is a wiring problem, but is there a way with the Vag-Com that I can just disable the TPMS system and just monitor my tire pressure the old fashioned way with a tire gauge? or Can I unplug the tire pressure monitoring system module without it causing the light to constantly stay on and beep at me? or can i turn off the beeping and deal with the light without disabling the beeping for oil pressure, or speed warning, or low fuel, or whatever?
I have an Audi a8 2006 with tpms. I got an error yesterday saying all levels were low. Slightly. This morning before driving anywhere, I filled the tires to the spec pressures 38 fr and 36 rear. I initialized through the mmi system. When I had it display pressures the pressures on the drivers side were lower in the 30-33 range but with temps in the 118 range. On the pass side pressures were reading 38-40 with temps in the 80 range.The car was not driven for 16 hours prior to filling up tires. Car in a garage. Displayed values were as soon as i turned car on. I didn't drive 10 feet. What this means? Bad sensor? Receiver?
View 3 RepliesI blew my driver front out about 2 weeks and got a new tire the same day and the whole 9 yards. After changing the tire I would of thought the light would go off, but no its still on.
View 8 RepliesYesterday I noticed a new message upon startup stating there is a fault with tire pressure monitoring system. The message still appears after several operation (startup) cycles. This exact message is not in the handbook, but it sounds like a sensor has gone out. Tire pressures are OK. I have thought about reprogramming the tire pressures to see if that is the problem, but I'm waiting for the tires to get cold before doing that.
View 24 RepliesHave a 06 Passat which shows to low pressure on tyres, but can't find that it's anything wrong with the pressure - I'v tried to turn it off, and it actually turns off for a little while - then starts to warn again of low pressure.
I've heard it can also monitor spare tyre - but I don't have spare only this compressor unit stuff.
What might cause this? - can I turn it off for real with vag-com in any way ?
