What to do when TPMS comes on?
Your TPMS Light Came On, What Should You Do? If your TPMS light comes on while you’re driving or stays on after you start your car, your next stop should be at a gas station or rest stop with an air pump and inflate the tire(s) to the recommended PSI.
How do I know which tire needs air?
Check to see when you have enough air pressure in the tires by releasing the inflation lever. The gauge on the hose fitting will show if you have approximately enough air pressure. You can check it again later with your own gauge. At this point, it is better to slightly overinflate the tire.
What PSI should my tires be?
Most passenger cars will recommend 32 to 35 psi in the tires when they’re cold. The reason you check them cold is that as tires roll along the road, friction between them and the road generates heat, increasing tire pressure.
How to repair a tire pressure monitoring system?
Tools for repair of tire pressure monitoring systems include nut torque drivers for TPMS Schrader valves, torque tools for snap-in TPMS sensors, digital tire gauges for manual verification of tire inflation levels, and test instruments that can help pinpoint TPMS service problems.
Are there any tire pressure monitors for RVs?

Can a tire pressure monitor be used at night?
While the system comes with a long distance between the sensor and the monitor, it is still capable of recording the correct pressure and temperature without any failure. One more feature that is so remarkable in this system is the automated backlight. You will find it useful, especially during night trips.
What to do if your TPMS warning light is still on?
If you’ve checked all your tires (including the spare) and the tire warning light is still illuminated, reset your tire pressure monitoring systems. Some models require the TPMS to be reset every time pressure is added. Instructions for how to reset your tire warning light vary from model to model.
