Which Warning light is this? Help!

Is this the tire pressure warning light? I bought used, and did not come with owners manual, I'm working with the dealer on getting one.

That warning light means you have low tire pressure.

hmm does it atleast tell you which tire and what the pressure is at? or is this all nissan provides us for the 100$+ parts required in the tires to monitor the pressure?

It doesn't tell you which tire is low. But if it goes on; I'd definitely be on it and check that s__t ASAP.

Mine came on a few weeks ago; I checked the pressure and all was good so I drove to school. It went off 10 mins into the drive. Came back on the next day. DIDN'T go off after 10 mins. I stopped at chevron to check the pressure, once again it was good.

Next day I wake up and its on again. I'm like WTF.. grabbed the compressor out of the shop to check it and and my right rear is 100% flat with a huge nail in it. Funny too cause I was thinking that maybe the sensor was bad and almost didn't check it.

my $0.02:

Note that it your wheels do not have Tire Pressure Sensors (stripped OEM or unequiped aftermarket or broken TPMS), the light will come on after about 45 mn of driving even if your pressure is good. It's just that the computer can't "read" the sensors and shows the warning by default.

I thought my wheels were factory wheels, but I have had that light on for a while now. I got it checked while oil was being changed, they said they checked the wheels and the light should go off when I started driving. It did not.

I have some pictures I posted of my car and wheels if anyone can tell me if they are indeed factory like I assumed?
