Can You Still Drive When the Tire Pressure Warning Light Comes On?
1 Answers
When the tire pressure of a car is abnormal, the tire pressure monitoring light on the dashboard will illuminate. At this point, the car owner should pay attention to checking the tires. If the tire pressure light comes on while driving, it is best to reduce speed, control the steering wheel, and find a safe place to inspect the tires. Whether the tire pressure light disappears afterward or not, it is advisable to have a recheck at a nearby repair shop as a precaution. Here is additional information: 1. Some vehicle models' tire pressure monitoring systems require a self-learning process. After tire repair or inflation, the tire pressure data needs to be reset and cleared. Otherwise, even if the tire pressure is normal, the monitoring system will continue to retain the original fault code, so the tire pressure light will remain on. 2. Tire pressure monitoring systems can be divided into external and internal types based on the installation position of the sensors. The external type installs the sensors on the tire's valve stem, while the internal type installs the sensors inside the tire.
