To activate a new transmitter in the tire pressure monitoring system WITHOUT the Nissan Consult scan tool: Under the dash above the OBD II connector is a single wire connector called the "tire pressure warning check connector". Use a jumper wire and ground the tire pressure warning check connector with the key OFF. Then turn the key ON and cycle the ground at the tire pressure warning check connector 5 times within 10 seconds of turning the key ON. This should cause the tire pressure monitor light to start flashing indicating the system is in "learn mode". Then use the activation tool starting at the left front tire and work around the vehicle in a clockwise direction - front left, front right, rear right and rear left. Activating each transmitter at each wheel should make the turn signal flash one time and after completing all 4 wheels, the turn signals should flash two times and all 4 time pressures should be displayed.
This is a common issue on all vehicles that have the TPS monitoring system. What you have is a bad sensor in one or more of the tires, or the system needs to be calibrated. If you take the car to Nissan they can correct the issue. I had the same issue with my 05 Frontier.
I would find a shop that has a TPMS tool that can read the TPMS senor data. It is possible for one of the sensors to be sending a false low pressure reading.
First make sure all of the tires have at least 35 psi in them. The warning light comes on at 27.5 psi and goes off at above 33.5 psi. So make sure that you have the required 35 psi first. Once you have that, drive the vehicle a short distance the light should go out. If the light does not go out you can take it to the dealer to have them re-activate your sensors. Most tire shop have this tool also.
thats your TPMS light, Tire Pressure Monitoring System. The light means that one of your tires is low on air, so check them all and fill them to the specified amount, which will be located on the drivers side door jamb.
