Low Tire Pressure Warning

I got a low tire pressure warning today on my 2011 F-250 SD 4x4 computer console. I checked my tire pressures and they were 56, 57, 54.5, 55 pounds. I have the Continentals Contitracs load range E rated for 80 pounds PSI. I put 60 pounds of air in each tire and re-set the low tire pressure warning. Has anybody else got this warning? Are these pressure valve sensors this sensitive to read a 1/2 pound or so. We shall see what happens. Rick.

Mine's gone off twice when I was hauling trailers, once my bass boat and the other time an empty utility trailer. It happened after about a 15 mile run each time, I took a turn and the message popped up and the tire pic stayed lit, after I shut the truck off the light was gone when I restarted the truck. I don't like that tire pressure monitoring crap one bit, it's just a way to sell you more sensors.

I can get away with 55 lbs in mine, sometimes. At that pressure the TPMS does not go off if left in the heated garage. If left out in the cold it will go off. Best, CB

need to look at your drivers door cert. what does it say for the min pressure. Run that and it should take care of the warning.

The TPMS is mandated by our daddy...
