    Does it stay illuminated or is it blinking? Did you reset them using the button under the steering wheel?

    it would blink then stays on. i tried different psi but still getting the same thing. the tires max is 44psi. i had it from there to 30psi but still nothing. i tried resetting it with the button also but nothing. i know the tire place didnt mess around with it cause i watched them take the old ones off and mount the new ones.

    Take it back to the place that did the work and tell them to fix it. Ir's possible they might have damaged one of the sensors.

    I dont think they did. I was there watching them the whole time. I didnt notice it till the next day but then i only drove it from the tire shop witch is like half a mile from my house. Im gonna take the spare off this weekend and see if i still get it. Forgot all about the spare which is still the originaland smaller series.

    yeah, i looked the other day and there is none. ill think bout taking it up there. im not to worried bout it though. just thinking bout going under the dash and removing the light or pulling it out of its area so i dont get that annoying light. thanks for all the help guys.

    This. Have them plug into the OBD port and reset the computer to make sure it's recognizing all sensors. Should only take them a few mintues.
