    Try hitting all the tires with a bit of air..
    Dead battery in one or more of the sensors. Figure a '10 could've been sold in '09, it's been 9 years on the same batteries...

    I think I am going to try the cutting of the blue wire and attaching to the red/white wire seem a lot easier than taking the cluster out.

    If the light flashes first and goes solid it's a sensor or battery issue

    if the light just turns on with no flashing then it's a pressure issue

    Yes it does flash then stays lit don't know which one is bad so I will just disable the light altogether.

    Same thing has been happening in my 2010. Pretty sure the cause is dead TPMS batteries. I just ignore the light.

    I had the same issue, America's Tire confirmed one of the sensors went bad.
