TPMS Light Notifying Malfunction in system

admin · 03-10-2010, 11:51 PM

Agreed. If I recall correctly, if your tire pressure drops below 27 PSI, light will turn on.

Well a couple things,

1. If my tire pressure were low, the TPMS would just stay lit. It wouldn't blink for 1 minute and than stay lit. This is the sequence that the manual suggests is a TPMS malfunction. Correct me if I'm wrong please. Also, my tires are not low, they all look beefy and are all registering 34 PSI.

2. On another note, on the drive back from Fullerton, I get on the freeway and the light turns off. What the eff is happening? Is my car is messing with me!

Haha. I can tell its not running normal though. Im taking it in first thing in the morning.

Just got back from the Dealer, they took me for a test drive in it, everything seemed to be running smoothly. They took it in and did a quick diagnostic, and it came back normal. TPMS is not malfunctioning, and all tires are perfectly even at 34 PSI. What the? Was I high last night? NOOOOO, even my fiance saw the light blink on. Oh well as long as Im gravy. Still, makes me wonder though....

I've got the same issue. Took it into the dealer and got the same answer. Was your light on when you had the dealer check it? I'm curious because my current plan is to take it in one time while the alarm is active and see if they can tell me why it's going off.

No mine turned off after about 2 hours for some reason.
