Hi , I have a horseshoe warning on my dashboard and was told it’s probably air pressure. I put 2,3 bars of pressure in the front tire, but it’s not getting any reading . Any ideas . Tires look fine.

I had a low pressure warning for one of my tyres. Checked it and the pressure was fine. Booked it in for work under warranty, but before that date arrived, the warning disappeared and the sensor has worked fine ever since. When I phoned to cancel the appointment I was told that the sensor will often reset after a longish run.

Yeah , I have added the air to 2.3 but still no reading on that one tire. I am thinking the TPMS sensor is not working.

Just to clarify, mine took over 2 weeks to reset.

There's calibration menu for tpms, this is kind of a reset too.
Tpms life is around 5 to 6 years, so if it going intermittently on and off, i think it's time to change

The problem showed on mine at about 18 months old and hasn't happened again.
