TPMS Warning Light

Good Evening,

I recently had new tires installed on my 2008 Prius and after the tires were installed she drove better than ever and I drove about 150 miles across Florida with no issues what so ever. But when I went for a drive this evening, after about 30 minutes of driving my TPMS light blinked for about a minute then stayed solid for about 3 minutes but then went out. When I got out of the car all the tires looked okay, I didn't have a gauge on me and I will check the pressures tomorrow. I didn't know if anyone had an idea what the problem could be and if I needed to do something to correct it.

Thank you for any and all help!

 

Patrick,

Thank you for the reply! I just had the tires installed yesterday and then the issue happened. If I was to check and adjust the tire pressures with the tires warm, would you know what those numbers should be?

Thank you!

 

Another question, if my sensor is failing do I need to have it replaced? Or will my only repercussion be the light being on constantly?

Thank you again!

 

Thank you for the reply Patrick, whats great is the tire shop is in Merritt Island and I'm in Tampa which are on opposite sides of the state. I might have to make a trip this weekend if it doesn't go away. I adjusted the pressures this morning and they were a bit off. I then dove around for a bit and no light. I'm hoping the pressures being off were the problem. If it does it again I'll make the trip back to the tire place.

Thanks again for the help!
