TPMS showing 50+ tire pressures
But they are all really at 32 according to my gauges I've been using forever.
Also, it says PSI in the bottom right corner, so this isn't a units problem.
How do I reset this?

I thought I was having this problem. The TPMS was reading 50 PSI, so I assumed it was in error. I checked the pressure with an analogue gauge. In horror, I discovered the TPMS was correct! It's a miracle I didn't have a blowout on the way home from the dealer. I specifically asked the salesman to please make sure all of the fluid levels were topped off and the tire pressures were correct. Is that their idea of correct pressure?

i don't know what the deal is, but it seems all my dealers do that. and if it happens on a cold day, and then warms up, and you drive, the psi shoots up. i always check tires after service. and i'm talking mb, gmc, cadillac and subaru. you can really feel the ride difference too. maybe that's what they go after. ron
I'd better check the spare too. That might be at 100 psi.
