What Causes the Vehicle Tire Warning Light to Illuminate?
1 Answers
Vehicle tire warning light illumination is caused by low tire pressure or a damaged tire pressure sensor (the warning light is the tire pressure indicator). Below are detailed explanations regarding the illumination of the vehicle tire warning light: Low Tire Pressure: During driving, if a tire is punctured by sharp foreign objects on the road, it can result in severe air leakage from the punctured tire, leading to low tire pressure, which triggers a dashboard warning. Damaged Tire Pressure Sensor: The tire pressure sensor is designed to monitor tire pressure and is directly installed inside the tire, connected to the tire inflation port. If the tire pressure sensor is damaged during driving, it can cause a dashboard warning. In such cases, a new tire pressure sensor needs to be replaced.
