Oh No....!!!!! Not Another "TPMS" Question..!!!!
 

I did a search but gave up after reading about 20 posts...

Here's the question.... What is the low pressure that the TPMS alerts you of a low tire.??

I rotated my stock "ZM-6" 33" tires at 6000 miles about a month ago and set the tire pressure to "35 LBS" according to the manual and reset the TPMS system accourding to the manual. A few days ago I rechecked the tire pressures as it has gotten colder.

They were down and average of 3-4 lbs per tire. When does the TPMS system notifi you of a low tire at what pressure?? Seems to me ..it should have gone off.

What's your experience..??

Its designed to warn you of a impending flat. The alert should go @ 20 psi + or minus a few...:raar:

Thanks dude,
You'd think they would tell you that somewhere in the manual...

:cool:

I set my tire pressure to 35 psi. As the temperature has dropped, I have seen a 3psi drop cause my TPMS to indicate low tire pressure. This does not occur at start up. You have to drive for a few minutes before it trips. Then, as the tires heat up, the pressure builds and the indicator goes off.

i had an unnoticed nail in a rear tire that caused an annoying slow leak.
i have the stock 33" desert duelers.
the tpm light seemed to go on anytime the tire pressure was below about 30 psi.
like the other post, it went on a few minutes after start up.

hope this helps.

Thanks guys.. Mine has yet to go off even down to 30 PSI. But as you state it takes a while after driving for it to go off.

Like I said..you would think that they would lay out the operation of this system in detail in the manual...

Exactly the same here....

Somebody said the TPM alert will also go off if there is a certain difference among the tire pressures. Is this true, or is it strictly a low pressure limit on any tire?
