you are saying that the car is all OK, no yellow light anymore, right?

 

Sorry I wasn’t clear. With new tire gauges, I made sure all 4 tires had the correct psi yet I still have the warning on the MySubaru app and in the car (tire light next to speedometer). Hmmm, looking further through the app, again, it says I need to drive the car at least 25 mph and it will recheck the inflation pressures again. Ok so that pretty much answers my question.

 

@ieliason I've owned mine for 7 years, doing 2x annual winter tire swaps to other rims that also have sensors - the clear experience has been, it can take a surprisingly long time for the light to both turn on, and turn off after a system reset at the tire store. Like, a day or two, and a fair number of miles.

but I also have gathered, the TPMS system in my '17 is considerably different from the system in '19+ SK Foresters. That might be a good thing but I'm not sure.

 

@ieliason Let us know if your discovery fixes the problem; thanks

 

It’s true…as I drove away from home, I saw the low tire light blink off and I was only going 23mph.

 

I had this same issue when one of my tire had a slow leak. Fixed it and posted about my findings:

@2015espy I edited the title and made that thread a sticky Once we hear that @ieliason has solved the problem this thread can be closed

 

@ieliason
You do indeed need to drive the car in order for the system to reset.

 

Using the control on the left side of the steering wheel (SEE THAT SILLY BOOK IN THE GLOVE BOX) you should be able to bring up the TPMS pressure display between the speedo & tach.

Are you seeing all 4 tires? Are they above 30 psi? Is the display blank? If you have good data but still have a yellow TPMS warning light, you have a system fault. If you don't have display data, you either haven't driven enough to acquire valid data, or you have a system fault (single bad sensor, system error).

Net, tell us more....
