Low Tire pressure warning?
This problem just started say 800 miles ago
I have 3,800 miles on truck
For what ever reason every time when I turn on ignition I get a display showing all four tires with pressure all over 60psi and have to press ok to get rid of display.
There also is a little tire icon warning on the bottom that stays on all the time.
How do I stop having to press ok every time I get into the truck?
Thanks

Air them to the spec on the driver's door jam, drive a couple of miles, and your problem will be gone. If you've aired them down for a better unloaded ride, check the Forscan page on this forum. You can set the pressure for the alarm using this app.

I run 55 front and 50 rear. TPMS light is on all the time. If you look, it's telling you the rear tires are too low. I hit "OK" after I start it and drive away.

250 will have lower settings than a 350. So, air that one tire up from 59 to 62 cold. Match the front. I am running 67 front, 75 rear on my 350. I would also eventually like the Forscan app so I can I adjust down. I tried and the dealer won't do it for us.

You dealer may or may not be willing to change your truck's TPMS settings. Otherwise, you'll need to go the FORscan route, perhaps with the help of a forum member in your area.
I used FORscan to drop our truck's TPMS settings from 60F/80R to 50F/60R; problem solved!
