Flashing tire pressure light?

Jokers_titan · 06-02-2008, 10:13 AM

Any body have any insight on this? It happen once before when I was towing a car trailer and stopped and it just happened when the wife drove it this am and went off. Bad sensor? Tires are at 50 psi( Nitto T-Graps) Any relation (by some small chance) to the engine light? It was on @ start up but not last night. I believe the TPS is on its own but please correct me if I am wrong. Thanks in advance!

50psi on stock rims would be to much

Anything less, it felt as if the rim was rolling the tire in a corner; steering real loose. Didn't feel right. The ride is a little rougher but feels great and put almost 5k on them with no other issues. I dunno What psi is everyone else running in their t graps?

I have been running between 45-50 psi on my t-graps on stock rims for over a year now. Although I am not a fan of the tires after all this time, I haven't had any problems with that pressure.

Sounds like you might have to replace the bcm or you have a loose connection take it to the dealer and hope its under warranty

Thanks Duran. I can check this Cont. tests out but where are these plugs located? Are they in the owners man? I appreciate it. my dealr is 1hr 25 mins from me, and the other locals give you a hassle cause you didn't buy from them. Gotta luv that!

I can't up load the pic here but I can send it to an email address if you want but the bcm and the tpms is located on the driver side. I get the info from a web site cost about 25 dollars for a year comes in handy if your a do it your selfer.

Hey I appreciate it. jblumling@customcastings.net is my work addy. The TMPS light didn't come back yesterday at all, however my engine light is still on, which is probably an O2 sensor I imagine. I hope this truck doesn't start taking a turn for the worst as I only have 41k miles on it. Thanks for all the help duran.

Is that NissanHelp.com? I've used that site for the TSB's and electronic versions of the owners manuals.
