Tire pressure light not turning off
 
All four of my tires are at the correct psi. It just won't turn off. How do I turn it off? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Are you checking the tires cold or after driving?

Are the wheels aftermarket or replacements? If so you might not have tpms sensors.

Otherwise my guess is a tpms sensor failed.

Also +1 to what jd001 said.

Either you don't have 4 functioning TPMS sensors or the system is malfunctioning. A bad sensor is the most likely problem but in any case it's a tough problem to troubleshoot on your own. You're probably going to have to take it to a shop with the right equipment.

I was given 4 different tires when I got the car. They weren't brand new, but they were way better than the ones it had on.

What about the actual rims though? TPMS are mounted to the rim itself (part of the air valve).

All four are at 35psi. Just checked.

Actually they gave me the rims as well. But when I took it to a shop they told me that all four sensors were functional.

I think we need more background info here...

Did you just get your car? Was it used? Did you have to replace all four wheels (rims + tires)?

If the wheels are new (i.e. from another car), then the TPMS on them need to be synced with your car.

How do I go about syncing them to my car because all wheels came from another car. Thanks.

Not sure about the FRS, but on BRZ you need a tool to get the new sensors to sync. Easiest is to take it to a tire shop. They may do it for free.
