The switch is under the seat or in the base of the seat belt retractor. Un plug the wire and see if the light goes off.

The tire pressure issue is a dealer controlled item. They have a re-set computer that will either reset the sensors or tell which one is bad

Suggested Repair

For the constant seat belt light, locate the switch under the seat or in the seat belt retractor base, unplug its wire, and see if the light goes out. The intermittent low tire pressure light is a dealer item; a dealer reset computer can reset the sensors or identify which sensor is bad.

Conversation Summary

The owner of a 1998 Toyota Sienna asked how to troubleshoot a seat belt light that stays on and a low tire pressure light that comes and goes after a manual reset. The expert said the seat belt switch is under the seat or in the retractor base and suggested unplugging its wire to see if the light goes off. The tire pressure system needs a dealer reset computer that can reset the sensors or show which one is bad.
