Tire light

I have a small leak in one of my tires, well the light in the dash popped up so I put air in it. Well the light has stayed on and wont go off. I have checked all 4 tires and its still on. What's that mean?

Sometimes the light takes a while to reset. I have had some success with putting an extra 5lbs in the tire/s that were involved and running it that way for a day. It's always reset for me by then.

I recently changed my wheels and drove my car in the snow and my tire light started to blink for about a minute. Then the light stayed on for about 5 minutes and it turned off. This happened twice within an hour of driving. I pulled over to check the tire pressure and it was fine. What could be the problem?

yeah, Well this is the first time that this has ever happened to me. It usually goes off when I put air in the tire. I usually put about 40 in my tires just to be above. Yesterday the tire light started blinking.. then it finally just stopped but stayed on. I was just wondering what was wrong. I guess i'll have to let the dealership know what's going on when I do my 30k mile service.

I had a defective TPMS sensor a year or so ago that the dealer replaced. It began reading 8-10psi low even though tire was at correct pressure.

If you run the diagnostics it will tell you what the fault it. There is a fault code list in the thread I referenced.
