Tire Pressure indicator on the dashboard

[VibeMaster]

Just got myself a 05 Vibe base. Its a beautiful car. Have a question and maybe someone in here can help. I noticed that the tire pressure indicator lights comes on often but when I checked the tire pressure, it was normal (32 psi). I would reset it and then it would come on again in a day or 2. I checked the psi and it was fine. What should I do? ignore it? Thanks in advance!

The owners manual says it may take an hour of driving at over 19 mph to complete the reset. It also says there are other situations that can cause the light to come on even when there is no actual tire problem. check out (I'm sure you already have) pages 5-65 - 5-67 of the owners manual. PDF versions of the owner's manual can be found at http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=1010

after the hour of driving... it should reset, no problem. I got a flat and mine let me know when it lost enough air to turn the light on, on the dash. Replaced the tire, reset the indicator and now it's fine again.

First, make sure you are properly resetting the system per the manual.If it's still coming on, it sounds like you have a problem. I would get it checked out at a dealer- since the TPM (Tire Pressure Monitor) is part of the ABS brake system, there could be an issue with the ABS which is a potential safety problem.
