We ask how long the TPMS light has been on, whether it’s steady or flashing, and if any recent tire or wheel work has been done.
We inspect valve stems and sensors (where visible) for corrosion, damage, leaks, or missing components.
Using a TPMS scan tool, we read sensor IDs, battery status, pressure readings, and any stored fault codes to identify the root cause.
We explain what’s causing the warning (e.g., low pressure, failed sensor, relearn needed) and provide a clear estimate for any sensor replacement, service kits, or relearn procedures.
When needed, we replace TPMS sensors, seals, or stems and install new programming-compatible components appropriate for your vehicle.
We perform the correct relearn procedure for your make/model so the vehicle’s computer accurately recognizes each sensor position and clears the TPMS warning.
We confirm all sensors are reporting properly, pressures are set to spec, and the TPMS light is off before you leave.
Why is my TPMS light on even though my tires look fine?
The system may be detecting a sensor malfunction, low battery, or minor pressure difference you can’t see. A diagnostic scan will tell us exactly what’s going on.
Do TPMS sensors have batteries?
Yes. Most sensors contain non-replaceable batteries that eventually wear out, typically after several years. When the battery fails, the sensor must be replaced.
Do I need a TPMS relearn every time I rotate my tires?
Many vehicles require a relearn after rotation so the system knows which sensor is at each position. Some systems relearn automatically, but others need a manual or tool-based procedure. We’ll follow the correct method for your vehicle.
Can I run wheels or tires without TPMS sensors?
On many vehicles, removing sensors will trigger a warning light and may violate local regulations or inspection requirements. It’s best to maintain a working TPMS system for safety and compliance.
Why did my TPMS light come on after installing new tires?
A sensor may have been disturbed, damaged, or not relearned properly, or pressures may not have been set to your vehicle’s specs. We can check sensor health, perform a relearn, and set pressures correctly.
