Tire Pressure low when it isn't low?

So my tire pressure warning light keeps coming on and telling me I have low tire pressure. I checked the tires and there are no low tires. I tried turning the car off and on and waiting a day or so and it still comes on every time I start the car. I have the stock wheels and tires and TPM sensors.

Anyone know what's going on?

RE: Tire Pressure low when it isn't low?

I'll assume that you've checkedeach tire pressure andthey're above 30 PSI... Although I've HEARD that the sensors are set at about 25 PSI. If your pressure really IS good, then you'll probably need the dealership or a tire shop to recalibrate the sensors. The dealership should agree to do it for nothing. My dealership reset mine when the installed my new wheels and tires. It takes about a whole minute if the guy knows what he's doing.
