Frequently asked questions
2012 Nissan NV 3500 Sv shown

On a Nissan NV, the tire pressure light is a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point, and it means one or more monitored tires are at least 25 percent below the pressure on the driver’s door-jamb placard when lit steadily. A flashing light for about a minute at startup followed by a steady light means the tire-pressure monitoring system has a fault, usually a sensor battery that has run down. Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa in Mesa, Arizona, provides tire-pressure-light diagnosis for Nissan NV vans across all model years. The visit checks each tire’s pressure and each sensor’s signal and battery status, helping separate a tire needing air or repair from a sensor needing replacement. If the light appears, the pressure should be addressed at the next stop and service can be scheduled with the dealership.

What the tire pressure light means on a Nissan NV

The warning symbol looks like a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point inside. When the light stays on steadily, one or more tires are at least 25 percent below the pressure shown on the placard attached to the driver’s door jamb. This can happen after a cold night because tire pressure drops about one pound per square inch for every 10-degree temperature change. A tire can look fully inflated while still triggering the warning.

If the light flashes for about a minute at startup and then remains illuminated, the tire-pressure monitoring system has a fault. The service check helps determine whether the concern is tire pressure, a puncture, a leaking valve stem, or a sensor with a run-down battery. When the light is on, tire pressure should be set at the next stop.

What the diagnosis covers at Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa

The tire pressure light service at Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa starts with a pressure check of every monitored tire against the pressure listed on the driver’s door-jamb placard. Each tire-pressure sensor is scanned for its signal and battery status, which helps distinguish a tire that needs air or repair from a sensor that needs replacement.

The inspection also looks for punctures and leaking valve stems. After any sensor or tire work, the system is relearned so the vehicle can recognize the monitored tires correctly. Drivers noticing the light after a temperature drop, despite tires that look full, or after a flashing startup sequence can schedule service for a complete pressure and sensor check.
