Can You Continue Driving When the Tire Pressure Warning Light Is On?
1 Answers
Tire pressure warning light is on, you should not continue driving. The tire pressure warning light is a yellow indicator, featuring an irregular circle without a seal at the top and four small spikes at the bottom, with an exclamation mark inside. The illumination of the tire pressure monitoring indicator signifies abnormal tire pressure. Abnormal tire pressure is generally caused by one of the following three reasons: Abnormal tire pressure: The system typically triggers an alert when the pressure is below 1.8 bar or exceeds 3.0 bar. In such cases, it is necessary to inspect the tires and adjust the pressure. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure monitoring system is not reset in time, it will continue to display the previously recorded data, causing the tire pressure warning light to stay on. Simply performing a tire pressure reset will resolve this issue. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, which monitors tire pressure, is installed inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation valve. If the sensor is damaged due to impact while driving, it can also cause the tire pressure warning light to illuminate. In case of sensor damage, the only solution is to replace it with a new component.
