Warning Light on

I noticed a warning light on this morning. its on the left of my speedometer, and it has an exclamation point with what looks like a horseshoe. I dont have an owners manuel yet since i bought my truck used. its a 2007 4 cyl. Any info would be apprciated.

 

its the tpms light...(tire pressure monitoring system)



^^^thats mine...is it that light??

 

Check your tire pressure and fill up to proper pressure even the spare tire and it will cut off

 

Yep, what they said.

 

X2 on spare usually what causes it.

 

Mine still on even with all tire pressure correct including the spare? Help

 

Did you follow the reset procedure from the Owners Manual?

Nope, Will check on that thanks

 

This is a good post after 4 years of not using my spare tire, my tpms light went on, filled up the spare and the tpms light went off! Thanks Everyone!

 

my goes on when the weather is cold... once the tires ride around for a while... it goes away!

 

I've also read some places that this light may have something to do with a potential issue with the O2 sensor, catalytic converter, emissions, etc. Is there any validity to this? I mainly ask because mine too just came on and I'd love for it to just be tires low on air.

 

It's just low air in one of your 5 tires. If the symbol is blinking on the other hand.... you have a dead tpms

 

Not at all.

All that other stuff is covered by a different light. The 'Engine' light, commonly called a CEL (check engine light). These have been around for 20+ years across all marquees.

BTW, while it's certainly a great idea to keep your spare aired up, I'm pretty sure it doesn't have a TPMS sensor in it. My '13 doesn't. Somewhere along the way they quit putting them in spares. It's one reason they are marked temporary use only. Even when it's a full size tire that matches what's on the ground.
