What Causes the Tire Pressure Warning Light to Flash?

[StAngelo]

Tire pressure warning light flashing can be caused by the following reasons: Punctured tire: This situation usually results in very slow air leakage, making it difficult to immediately identify which tire is affected. In this case, you can use a tire pressure gauge to measure the pressure (front: 2.3, rear: 2.5). If the pressure is low, inflate the tire to the proper level and then observe the tire pressure warning light. If it lights up again after a few days, you may need to remove the tire for inspection. Overinflated tire: Standard tires: 2.4-2.5bar; Reinforced tires: 2.8-2.9bar; Maximum pressure: should not exceed 3.5bar. Therefore, if any tire exceeds 3.0bar, it may trigger the tire pressure monitoring light. Prolonged driving with low tire pressure: This usually occurs when a tire has significantly low pressure, and high-speed driving causes the tire temperature to rise, leading to increased tire pressure. In such cases, you should promptly stop to rest or replace the tire with a spare.
