How do you remove the spare tire on a 2005 dodge ram?
Get your jack out from under the passenger seat. Stick the rods together until you have two connected, with the hook end on one side. Go to the rear bumper and on the right hand side between the bumper and tailgate you will see a small opening. Stick the hook end through the hole and it clips onto a latch.
Place the tire iron rod horizontally onto the other rods. Then you proceed to twist the tire down like a crank. Spin the rod to the left, counter clockwise, and it will start lowering itself down.
Once its all the way down, climb under the truck and remove the tire. You need to tilt the tire up on one side and thread the tire winch through the center hole. Pull the tire out from under the truck. Then crank the winch back up by turning it clockwise. Pull the rods out and disassemble them and get ready to jack the truck up and stick your spare on.

Where is the 2007 Toyota Highlander tire pressure reset button?
There is no tire pressure reset button on this year and model vehicle. On this 07 Highlander, it is self reseting. Set all tires to the correct psi (there is a label on the inner driver side door) and don't forget about the spare tire as well (which is located in the back of the vehicle, underneath). Start the vehicle and drive it around the block, it should reset on it's own. If it doesn't and all the tires are at the right psi, you should check with your nearest Toyota dealership for any problems with the tire sensor system.
Answer
On the 2007 Highlander, the tire pressure reset button is located on the left side under the steering wheel (almost at your knee level) or you can say on the right of the hood release lever. You can feel it with your hand or see it if you stand out of your Highlander and open the driver side door and look on the right side of the hood release. You can check the Manual - I was getting the light and looked up in the Manual and found how to reset it. Good luck.
Is Nitrogen in your tires explosive?
The air that you breathe is 79.8% nitrogen. By using 100% nitrogen you exclude oxygen from inside your tire. Less oxygen, less corrosion of the tire and rim. In short it makes no difference if you have nitogen or air. Its just a marketing scam to charge you an extra $8.00 per tire for something that makes no difference in tire performance.

How do you reset the tire pressure light?
I was told by the Toyota dealer to reset the tire pressure light, do the following:
Push the RESET button located under the dash (near to your left knee) and hold button until it flashes and then stops. Release button and then press again until it flashes; when it stops flashing, release button. (Good luck finding the reset button -- I am still looking for where it is on my 4Runner!!!)
It depends greatly depending on make and model. First step is to set the pressures to the spec listed on the sticker on the drivers door jamb, not the pressure listed on the side of the tire.
ADDED: Make sure you also check the spare tire for proper inflation.
For Toyota owners - the tire pressure re-set button is usually located on the very bottom edge of the dashboard to the left of the steering column. It is a very small black push button.
No it does not ruin your rim, just make sure to wash it off when you change the tire next time around.

Where is the best place to place the jack to change a rear tire on my windstar van?
That is a great question - It is very important to know exactly where the engineers designed the strength into the frame to handle the weight of the van on the jack.
Although you can speak in general terms, the correct location will be specific to the year of Windstar you have.
The Owners Manual will have that information and diagrams to help make sure you hit the right spot.
