It wont... the only way to correct it is to take it to the dealer and pay the man... They have a machine that plugs into you data port and they reprogram them to be at the wheel they are at. Sucks but you gotta go to a dealer to get it right, as they are now, they will NOT alert you if your tires are low.

 

yeah we have to register the tpms sensors to the bcm via consult.....or else you will still have the light come on...esp if you replaced them.

 

I hate TPMS. I think it stands for To Pay Mechanic System.

 

^Not if you have a Honda or Acura... They recognize on their own... I got my 19's got a set of TPMS off ebay, put them in the rim, threw them on and in just moments they were reading tire pressure to me on the cluster...

Just wish Nissan and the others could keep up with Honda on the technology...

 

Well that sux thanx for the heads up Kuneff. I'm going to take a lil trip this wknd and I'll see if this goes off again if the problem persists I may have to roll out to the dealer.

 

Just another thought... I took mine to the local Nissan Dealership. They did it for me for about $40. I pass by them everyday going ot work and back. Closest INfiniti dealer is 2 hours away for me.

I promise you it will be back on in about 35-40 miles.

 

lol your probably right. It seems cheaper than I thought it would have been maybe I will try Nissan instead..

 

yeah i always try to do mine at nissan too..

 

I kinda like my tpms...when it works.

Yes, I check my pressure regularly, but it's nice to have a backup if you get a slow leak.

Today was the coldest am of the year today, and my tpms light went off. Went to station and they were all 27-28 psi. Filled them to 32psi and the light instantly went off before I even left the gas station. Its normal for tire pressures to decrease when temps drop. It's simple physics.

I find in the spring time, I sometimes have to let a psi or 2 out as temps climb. Usually the climb rate is slow enough to match the rate of air leakage from the tire.

The only times I add air are in the fall/winter when temps drop fro 85-95 to 15-25 degrees. Usually the tpms light will come on twice due to the pressure drop. When it's 15 degrees out....I tend to slack off in checking my pressures...so kinda nice to have the light.


Then again....if it didn't work I'd be cursing it out right now

 

Guys I have the same problem and it started after the tpms light came on.

It started flashing for 1 min and then got solid.
Now everytime I start my car it flashes for 1 min and then stays on.

Should I take it to a Nissan dealership or top up the tires to 35psi.

I have a pencil tire pressure gauge and the tires read between 31-33 psi on all 4 of them.

I did fill the tires after the light first came on and the left rear tire seems to have a valve that leaks but once I fiddle with it a bit it stop leaking.

Dunno what to do here.

does tpms go off if the pressure is too high?

 

i check mine weekly, but i also have extended warranty, any issues, i take it back to dealer. so far i've had 3 sensors replaces due to battery going bad.
