A warning light has come on saying my rear tyre pressure is low. Ive checked and re-inflated all tyres, do you have to reset the monitor if so how?

Just give a short drive this will allow the system to reset, if you still have a problem have a look under the glovebox, let me know what colour the led is flashing or is it on permanent red,

Having cheked/topped-up the air pressure, I'm still left with the fault message on the dash, but only the first of the four LED's is now flashing.

Any ideas on how to clear the fault message on the dash? Going to have the tyres checked tomorrow. :-(

I saw "Tyre System Error" regulary when starting my car and the dealer said there wasn't a fault. So the only solution was to disconnect the cable under the glove box. Hey presto - no more warnings.

Going to monitor the pressure in all four tyres over the next few days, but that definitely could be a solution to the problem.

Which cable did you disconnect and how? (which end to be precise)

If you feel the back of the warning lights module under the glove box, there's one cable which goes in and it disconnects easily.

Mine always says "Tyre pressure systme fault" on start-up, but the system does work. It warned me of a slow puncture a few weeks ago.
