Tire pressure monitor problems
Today on the way to work the tire pressure idiot light began to blink and a message came on and said "Tire Pressure Monitor Failure" or words to that effect. About a minute later they both went off and didn't come back on. Whats up with that? Also, how do I know which monitor, if any, is going out?
This on a 09 Screw with 49K on it.

The other morning it cooled off overnight and my son's and my trucks had TPMS lights go on. The day before it was warm enough to not trigger the light, but the sudden cool-down brought the pressure down enough. I checked my pressures, all were low, but one of them was down to 25 psi. My guess is that your tire(s) were just at the low pressure limit that triggers the light...then driving it warmed them up enough to expand the air and the light went off.

I checked the pressures last night and all were fine, including the spare. The weather here has been rather warm, 75 degrees in the afternoons, though a cold front is coming through today. The wierd part was that the sensor blinked, and it gave a sensor problem warning message. I had been driving about 20 minutes at 40-50mph. Also, how do I tell which sensor may be going out? On my friend's Chevy it tells you which tire is low. This is just a non specific warning. I don't want to change all five of them if only one is bad.

I've had the same problem... I figured it was due to radio interference, as each time it has gone off, I was going through a city. I was not aware that the dealer could change the pressure level for it to signal at... I think I'll have to have my dealer adjust mine, as I have Toyos on my truck and I like a little harder ride too.

TPMS became mandatory in the 07 models, your 2010 STX does have it unless you bought the truck used and someone changed out the rims
