Tried resetting it once, but no success actually made it worse.

Did you try the reset procedure from the manual? You know, turn the lights off quickly about four times, listen for the horn, air up or down the front driver tire until the horn sounds, do that same for the passenger front, then the passenger rear, then the driver rear, then listen for the horn again, then drive it for a few miles...

Hi oman . If the tpms is flashing you have a system problem .( most likely a dead battery in the sensor ) If the light is solid then you have a low tire or over inflated tire . I work for michelin so this is my thing . most tire shops have a tool that can tell you what the problem is . it should take less then 5 minuts to find out . But longer to fix . if it is a sensor you can get them from costco for about 35 bucks . the chepest place i have found them .

I tried it again, but still no good. I am gonna take out the sensors and manually reprogram them to the computer to see if that works.

Thumbs up

Reset mine last night, thought it didn't work, still had the low tire message. On my way to work today, after about 1 mile, it reset.

The sensors on my 06 come on all the time when the weather is cold. As soon as the tempurature goes below 45 degrees my low tire indicator is on. It works fine in the summer. Any suggestions?

I had similar problem
I now run 38 PSI in the four tires on the ground and no issues.

If your air pressure is close to the threshold of each sensor and you get some cold days, then the tire air pressure drops and triggers the TPM. After you drive for awhile, tires warm up and pressure goes up and TPM goes away.
