New tire, all tires filled...tire light back on (Honda CRV)

We had this problem once when they put a slightly differently sized tire when I needed a replacement. Or maybe because it was new it was slightly larger than the three other tires. The sensor couldn't figure out what was going on, because it compares the tires when it does its thing. It was super annoying to always have it on.
But it's just a sensor. You can ignore and go by the signs we used to back in the dark ages when we got a flat - thunk, thunk, thunk.... |

| That light comes on if the tires are not evenly inflated. Check to make sure the pressure is the same on all 4, then turn off light. |

| That’s the problem with Hondas. Their reliability sucks. |

The battery in the tire pressure sensor has a life of 5-10 years, and when it dies, you need to replace the sensor. The cost for the unit is pretty low (something like $40) but is usually done as part of tire replacement because the service tech will remove the tire, install new sensor and new stem, re-install tire, and rebalance wheel . I would do all five wheels (including spare if it has a sensor) at the same time because one of your sensor battery dies, the others will too. |

| One of our sensors wouldn't turn off and found rodents had eaten through our wiring. |

This. Also not a big deal. 10 years ago everyone drove without the stupid tpms. Just kick the tire to see if it is inflated. |

Same problem. I had to have the sensor in my spare replaced. It wasn’t even flat. |
