2012 XLT had low tire warning this morning, been in storage since last year, lf 45 rf 48 both rear at 60. Put air in the fronts to 60. How many key cycles does it take to get the light out?

Should happen same key cycle as soon as the TPMS re-checks the tire pressures. Usually within 5-10 minutes of adjusting tire pressures.

Thanks, drove it to several stops in AM, maybe a sensor died. Pretty good life though, 12 to almost 24. Need to schedule app at selling dealer, since local will sell go carts and can't diagnose the a@@ from hole in ground.

Usually if a sensor dies it just won't get a reading. It is also possible that ALL of your tires are 'too low' for the system - you might be under the minimum pressure threshold, which could be as high as 65 psi depending on the year and if someone has changed any programming.

Just making a few guesses. Regardless, the TPMS is more of a guide, an actual air gauge reading is the only way I actually TRUST to know what's in each tire.
