Hello, My TPMS light is constantly on, and sometimes flashing. The tires are at the right preasure.

No work has been done with the tires. The light just came on a couple weeks ago and stays on. It used to work fine.

The weather here is sixty five degrees in the day, and has been mild all week.

Is there a reset button on my Forenza for this annoyance?

Thank You

Light on and flashing when the pressures match the door sticker means you have at least one sensor that is not transmitting. Could be a any reason for that. Most common is the battery died in it (not replaceable).

Takes a TPMS tool to read them and find the dead one. Then you replace it and do a relearn and the light goes off until the next one fails or you have a low tire, whichever comes first.

No problem. You can probably get that work done at a tire shop if you wish. With TPMS a required item on vehicles these days most places have tools.
