tire pressure is correct but the flat tire symbol stays on

Adding air to the spare can also turn off the TPMS warning light.

There are many situations that can cause a TPMS warning light to come on or flash. It may have a tire pressure warning sensor and be low on air. After finding the reset button, switch ON the car only, not the engine. Usually, it is under the steering wheel or else you can follow the manual. If the light flashes for one to two minutes, it indicates there is a malfunction in the TPMS system. But, if the light remains illuminated for a long time even after filling the tires, then you should try to reset your TPMS light. However, if the light stays on, it indicates that one or more of the tires on the vehicle are at least 25% below the recommended pressure. After starting a vehicle, a TPMS icon will turn on for a few seconds. If the indicator light stays on, check all the tires and refill, repair or replace any that are below the proper pressure.

The TPMS warning light will illuminate when a tire is low and should eventually go out after a tire has been inflated to its recommended pressure according to the vehicle’s door placard, according to ATEQ TPMS. If you notice your TPMS light on for extended periods after filling your tires with air, you may need to reset your TPMS. But ATEQ TPMS Tools is here to help you make sense of it all, including TPMS warning light signs.Ī new video from ATEQ TPMS Tools shows how different lighting can indicate problems with tire pressure or the TPMS. If the Tire Pressure Management System in the Subaru Forester is not working properly, you may have to reset the system.
