The spare tire is underneath the vehicle in the rear. There is a large bolt right inside where the rear door latches that you will need a tool to get off. The tool is under the carpet all the way in the trunk space almost to the back of the rear seats in a compartment. It will take a while to unscrew the bolt all the way and watch your toes because the spare and the mounting equipment will just fall if you're not holding it up when the bolt is finally loose.

All you need to do is check the tire pressure on all 5 tires, if it is correct then the light will turn off. Probably your problem is the spare tire. You can remove the spare tire by taking off the little plastic cap under the compartment in the trunk, towards the right side, very close to the back of the car. There is a tool to turn the nut that you will find under the round plastic cap (approx 3") and the spare tire will lower to the ground. I've had the TMPS turn on my car twice and it was always the spare tire. IMPORTANT: Make sure you are not missing the aluminum tire valve caps. Plastic replacements (or none) will cause the warning light to come on.
Fill the tires with the correct air pressure. ___________ Don't forget to check the spare too.
I'm not quite sure what you mean here? But in the trunk where the spare tire is towards the front of the car above the spare tire is the on and off switch located in this access hole and also if you remove the spare tire cover (and you might have to remove the spare from the car) is this white pigtail wire coming from the switch and the computer wire harness, you take this white wire and ground it, then open and close your drivers door a couple of times with the key on and the car running. You should hear the compressor cycle and the airbag solenoids clicking too. I remember one time I had to do this when I unhooked my camper from my car and the back end of the car went up too high and over road the height sensors, now when I do this I leave the car running and raise the camper off the hitch slowly to give the air ride time to adjust.
I can't answer it but I have the same thing happening right now with my 2004. First the directional arrows on the dash go on and off, then the door locks and alarm and it won't start while it is doing all that.
A bad wheel bearing can cause your tire to tilt inward. The motion of the tire tilt thing in word, while you are driving, can cause the axle to break and the tire to come off.
