My low tire pressure light has been flashing since Monday intermittently and then stayed on this morning on my ride to work. I stopped at Wawa to check pressure - all four tires are in good pressure range and the tires are new....

Any reason I should worry about the trip to Rausch or is this sensor a bigger issue fixin to happen?

Thanks for any and all input :bang:

If the light flashes for a bit, then goes solid, it means that one of the sensors is bad, most likely due to a dead battery. I wouldn't worry about it. My light had been flashing like that for almost 2 years now.

When the tpms light comes on solid, then there's a low pressure issue.

As long as your tires hold air I wouldn't worry, my tpms light has been on for 4 years since I took them out.

When you air down at Rausch, you will trip the sensor. So you will have light on anyway. I would wait until I got back, as long as it is holding air.
