    TPI light

    My truck came with the stupid tire pressure indicator or monitor or what ever (I think its called a TPI or something). My tires came with 65 PSI fronts and 80 PSI rear which made my truck ride like a truck. hehe

    I lowed the pressure to 65 PSI in the rear and she rides much better, however, now my low pressure light stays on, I guess because its set for 80 PSI in the rears. My truck came with a tool you use when you rotate the wheels which I used and the light went out for a few hours but is now back on.

    Anybody know how to get rid of this stupid light?

    Thanks!

    We have a few newer trucks at work with the same feature. 1 of 2 things are going to happen: 1) you live with the light on or 2) you dig into the owners manual and reset the tire pressure to where it was from the factory. It is a fairly simple proceedure to correct the problem.

    Thanks for the reply.

    The problem is I do not want 80 PSI in my rear tires, too hard. So you know of no other way to fool the system? If you could find out at work I would really appreciate it.

    Thanks again!

    Personally, I think it would be out of my scope. You could contact the dealer on how to reprogram the Tire Pressure Sensor module.
