(i) Rear Light Failure Warning Light If this light comes on when the headlight switch is turned on (at the position 1 or position 2), it indicates that one or more of the tail lights are burned out. If it comes on when the brake pedal is depressed, one or more stop lights are burned out. Have defective bulbs replaced as soon as possible.

This means the airbag system is operating properly. The warning light system monitors airbag sensor assembly, inflators, warning light, interconnecting wiring and power sources. If either of the following conditions occurs, this indicates a malfunction somewhere in the parts monitored by the warning light system. Contact your Toyota dealer as soon as possible to service the vehicle. S The light does not come on when the ignition key is turned to the "ACC" or "ON" position or remains on.
