Ok i searched so dont bother ..

1st. My tire pressure light is constantly on. I reset it all the time and i checked the pressure and its fine. I dont know whats up with that.

2nd. My maint required light when i start my engine blinks like 10 times then goes away. It never did that before. Whats the deal with that.

i know im gonna take it to the dealer. I just want to know what you guys may think the prob is. I've had my car for over a year and 3 months now. and this is new.

 

The maint req light means its time for an oil change padre. If you just got one than it means they forgot to reset it.

 

do you have over 5000 miles? if so you just need to reset your maint indicator light. there's a tutorial just use the search option.

you got a tire pressure light!!????

 

rol you tire pressure might be on if there not ballanced or even my messed up alignment caused it to go on

and just a quick question where is the reset for the maintnince req. light??? im going to give my tc some new synthentic blood today for the first time and i want to turn that damn light off hahaha

 

its not time for a oil change .. i have 2000 miles left for my oil change. My car has over 23,000 miles on it.

I reset it like 30 times and it keeps coming back on. I know the situation of the 5000 mile mark. I have over 23,000 miles on mine so thats not the prob.

dont know aaron .. i need to get it taken care of.

the reset feature is in the manual. which consist of battery mode and holding down the trip button and so on .. you need to look into it.

 

u guys really can't reset ur maint. light???
hold ODOmeter button in, turn car off, turn key to "acc./on" position...keep holding ODOmeter in.....numbers will flash with dashes, then go to all 0's....once numbers come back up, turn car on...
that simple!!!!

ur issues with ur tire pressure light need to be taken care of at the dealership, ive seen some cars have bad sensors, thats y light comes on.....ive also seen ppl not reset the light correctly at all, and causes it to come on, but take it in to be on the safe side

 

s'up dave


just bc you had the oi changed doesnt mean the light isnt blinking bc of maintenence. mine came on when i hit 15k bc thats a marker for it. i wasnt ready for one either. they are preset to come on at certain mileage and if its been so many miles before having the oil done or whatever it will still come on.

 

its triggered to blink at 4k or so, its set to steadily come on at around 5k
then pops back up at about 7.5k, etc.....stupid retarded system that causes more issues than it helps

Rick covered this. Wouldn't suggest doing it unless you do follow normal reasonable guidelines like checking tire pressure w/o a light telling you to

yeah that tire pressure light can be annoying. I reseted mine like a billions times until i finally gave up. one day i brought in my car for the free oil changes and i guess they saw the light so they reset it for me. from then on it hasn't come on. thank god.

 

can putting on after market wheels and tires of different sizes effect the tire pressure warning light? or will it just need to be reset after putting the new wheels on?

 

First, you have to be on the actual odometer setting. Turn your car off and hold in the odometer button. Then turn your key to the on position while holding the button in and you will see four dashes, then three and so on.

I have a question though. I have Konig wheels on my car and I didn't put the sensor in them. Is there any fuse or anything I can do to get turn the light off?

 

...uhm...the last post in this thread was over 2 years ago...

 

that doesn't mean I wouldn't like to know how to do it....so if anybody has an answer for me I'd appreciate it. thanks.

 

alright guys. my car has 112k miles on it. i just noticed a couple of day ago that the maintanece required light was blinking.. now for good the light is on. I have 1600 miles on a good oil change and i did reset it when i changed my oil. what could it mean..

 

if it means anything then it would probably happen again if you were to reset it again. If I were you, I'd just reset it again and see if it comes back on.
