Is my car safe to drive with the TPMS light on?
There are several possible meanings when you see that silly little light with the exclamation point glaring back at you. It’s frequently anything as harmless as temperature changes that result in a change in the tire’s air pressure. In more severe situations, a puncture or other damage has caused the tire to lose pressure. The sensor can also be activated and result in the light coming on if your tires are overinflated.
Is It Safe To Drive With TPMS Light On?
To avoid seeming like Debbie Downer, we’ll simply say no. Driving around with your TPMS light on is not safe. You can’t tell how quickly your tire is losing air or how long it has been over- or underinflated without doing a tire examination. The best course of action is to check the current inflation level of each tire with a tire pressure gauge.
When the tire inspection light appears while you are driving, slow down and get to the closest gas station or service facility.
How can I activate the TPMS light?
Turn the key to the “on” position with the car off, but don’t let it run. When the Toyota tire pressure sensor blinks three times, hold down the TPMS reset button until it stops blinking. Start the car, then let it run for 20 minutes to let the sensor reset. Under the steering wheel is typically where you’ll find the TPMS reset button.
Why are my tires fine but my TPMS light is on?
It’s likely that one or more of your tires have low air pressure if you see the tire pressure indicator turn on. However, even if your tires are in good condition, there are a number of things that could cause the sensors to go off, so you shouldn’t rely only on the data from the tire pressure monitoring system of your car.
We’ve talked about some additional aspects of automobile maintenance in this piece. Read these articles if you have some time:
What is the price of a new TPMS sensor?
Replacement of a TPMS sensor typically costs between $208 and $250. Between $55 and $69 is the expected range for labor costs, while $153 to $181 is the range for part costs. Taxes and other costs are not included in this range, nor are your particular vehicle or geographic area taken into account.
Will the TPMS light turn on if my tires are over-inflated?
You most likely have a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) installed if you drive a more recent vehicle. Your tires’ internal electrical TPMS system keeps track of their air pressure. The TPMS turns on a dashboard warning light if your tires are either under- or over-inflated. You need to have your tire pressure checked if the light is steady. You should have your TPMS examined if the light is flashing.
Visit one of our stores for a free tire pressure check if you notice the TPMS light. If you’re on the road, fill up your tires with air as soon as you can at a petrol station. unsure how much more to say? For further information, see How to Check Tire Air Pressure.
Don’t panic if the TPMS light illuminates or flashes after you install the spare if you need to change a tire. Nothing to worry about there; that’s merely the system’s way of letting you know it can’t locate a TPMS unit in the spare tire.
Accurate tire pressure is now possible thanks to TPMS. It automatically alerts you when the pressure is low, keeping you safer, preventing damage to your tires, and increasing your MPG.
Can a high tire pressure turn on the TPMS light?
Examine the tire pressure in each of your four tires as soon as the TPMS Light illuminates. If a tire is low on air, fill it up with air until it meets the manufacturer’s recommendations, which may be located on the inside of the driver’s side door panel. Additionally, if the tire pressure is too high, the TPMS Light can illuminate. Check the pressure in each of the four tires if this is the case, then deflate as necessary.
Any of the following three possibilities for the TPMS light to turn on are:
When the TPMS light illuminates while you are moving, at least one of your tires likely has an inaccurate air pressure. Check the tire pressure and locate the closest gas station. Underinflated tires can wear out prematurely, limit fuel efficiency, and pose safety risks if driven on over an extended period of time.
TPMS flashes on and off: Changing temperatures may be a blame for the TPMS Light occasionally flashing on and off. The light may go out after the car warms up or when the temperature rises during the day if the pressure dips at night and rises during the day. The weather is causing the pressure in the tires to fluctuate if the light turns back on as the temperature drops. It is a good idea to gauge the tires and add or remove air as necessary.
TPMS light flashes for a minute or so after you turn on your car, then stays on: If the TPMS Light flashes for a minute or so after you turn on your car, then stays on, the system is not working properly. Your car has to be inspected as quickly as possible by a professional. If you must drive, exercise caution because the TPMS system will no longer warn you if your tires are underinflated. If you have to drive before a professional can examine your automobile, check the pressure in each tire with a gauge and add more if necessary.
Why does the TPMS light turn on?
Do you know what to do when the TPMS symbol for low tire pressure illuminates? The first step is to physically gauge your tire pressures and add air as necessary to bring them up to the manufacturer’s recommended levels. (The owner’s handbook or the driver’s door jamb will have the proper pressure; the sidewall of the tire will only have the tire’s maximum pressure.) Remember that your TPMS does not substitute for regular tire pressure checks. It is a gadget that can assist in notifying you when pressure is low, but a tire may deflate below the recommended level long before the TPMS warning light illuminates. When the tire pressure is either too low or too high, the TPMS light illuminates.
TPMS LIGHT ILLUMINATES WHILE DRIVING
At least one of your tires has low air pressure if your TPMS light illuminates and stays lit. Utilizing a gauge, check the pressure in each tire, identify the reason for pressure loss, and repair or add air to the tire(s) as necessary.
TPMS LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF
Variable temperatures may be causing your TPMS light to turn on and off when your tire pressure(s) is/are close to the level that generates an alert. The indicator may turn out when pressure increases during the day due to rising ambient temperature and/or heat produced by operating the vehicle; this often happens when pressure lowers at night due to a drop in ambient temperature. Check the pressure in each tire using a gauge and add air to any that need it.
TPMS LIGHT FLASHES AND THEN STAYS ON
Every time you start your car, if the light flashes for 60 to 90 seconds before staying on, it signifies the TPMS isn’t working properly. You should take your automobile to an auto repair shop for a checkup. The TPMS is malfunctioning and unable to alert you to low tire pressure until it is fixed. Using a gauge, check the tire pressure on all of them, and add air to the ones that require it.
Where can I find the Honda TPMS reset button?
The TPMS button, if your Honda has one, is located to the left of the steering wheel. Hold down the button while it blinks twice on the alarm.

In what location is the TPMS sensor?
In the US, direct TPMS usage is more prevalent. The sensors are either housed in the tire pressure valve, which also serves as an antenna, or they are band-clamped to the wheel rim. These gadgets deliver the data to an on-board computer.
Do TPMS require batteries?
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System, which notifies you when a tire is dangerously low on air, typically uses TPMS sensors embedded in the tires to detect low tire pressure. The majority of TPMS sensors use internal batteries that cannot be changed to power them.
The lithium ion batteries in a TPMS sensor have a lifespan of 5 to 10 years. The duration of the TPMS sensor batteries is difficult to predict because it depends on how many radio frequency broadcasts the sensors send out. The amount of driving you perform over time and the conditions you drive in will affect the sensor battery life. The TPMS battery life is less affected by cold conditions than by warmer ones. When compared to continuous pace, stop-and-go traffic has a greater effect on TPMS battery life. This is due to the fact that sensors send out more radio frequency broadcasts as a vehicle changes its speed.
The system will issue a malfunction warning when a TPMS sensor’s battery runs out, which will be visible as a blinking TPMS light on your dashboard. After 60 to 90 seconds, the light may either continue to flash or turn solid. Be a repair appointment as soon as you can if you receive this warning, but also check the tire pressure in each tire right away to make sure you have safe inflation all around.
You can change each individual TPMS sensor separately if one of them malfunctions and needs to be replaced. The other sensors, on the other hand, are probably on the verge of failing as well if the failure was brought on by a dead sensor battery. You might wish to proactively replace all the sensors so you have brand-new sensor batteries all around when you take into account the time and hassle of taking your car off for a sensor replacement.
