    I have had my tires replaced without having the the tire pressure sensors reinstalled. (one was malfunctioning and I just don't have the available funds to have it/the rest of them replaced, at the current momtn)

    Is there a way to disengage the warning light on the dash?

    Thanks!

    below the steering wheel, isn't there something? Either a reset or something to turn it off.

    I don't remember since I do not have my 2007 Prius anymore.

    There is no way to disable it aside from the comedic electric tape over the dash. That button underneath the steering wheel is a tire pressure reset which does not shut off the light. Take it to a tire place and they will tell you what is wrong. Most likely one of your tires is under pressure or a battery in a sensor has gone bad. Either way simple fixes. The sensor is available on Rockauto for $30. Also, it shouldn't inhibit state inspection so I would just use common sense and just learn to live with the light.
