1995 Subaru SVX Tire Pressure Warning Light Stays On

Some Dodge Charger owners report experiencing persistent tire pressure warning lights even when tire pressures are correctly set. This issue may stem from several factors, including leaking tires, wheels that fail to hold air, or a malfunctioning tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). Many owners are advised against driving with the warning light illuminated, as it could indicate insufficient tire pressure or a faulty sensor that isn't connecting to the vehicle's ECM/ECU. The TPMS light serves as a warning that tire pressure is outside the manufacturer’s specified threshold. When the amber TPMS light activates, it is recommended to safely stop and check the tire pressure on all wheels, including the spare, since driving on under-inflated tires can lead to overheating and potential tire failure. Additionally, some owners find that the warning may require a reset based on the last shutdown and new start pressures. If the TPMS warning light flashes and then remains solid, it indicates a system fault may be present. If the low tire pressure light stays on despite correct pressures, owners may need to reset the TPMS or investigate issues with the TPMS sensor, sensor battery, or receiver.

Some Nissan Maxima owners report experiencing persistent tire pressure warning lights despite their tires being in good condition. This issue may stem from factors such as leaking tires, wheels that fail to hold air, or a faulty tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). Additionally, the warning light can illuminate due to low air pressure in one or more tires, depleted batteries in pressure sensors, malfunctioning TPMS receiver modules, or damaged pressure sensors. Some owners notice that a blinking tire pressure light indicates issues with the tire pressure sensor or a malfunctioning receiver. Extreme temperature fluctuations, slow tire leaks, and problems with spare tires or electrical components may also trigger the warning light. In certain cases, the light continues to blink even after tires are inflated, possibly due to lost connections within the monitoring system or memory loss in the TPMS sensor. Resetting the TPMS may resolve these issues, but if the low tire pressure light remains on, it could indicate a need to address faulty sensors or receiver modules. Addressing these potential causes is crucial for the proper functioning of the TPMS in the Nissan Maxima.
