Navara TPMS Error

I've got a 2011 Nissan Navara diesel with 104018 km on the clock, and I'm having some trouble with the tire pressure monitoring system. The dash keeps displaying a 'Tire Pressure Too Low' warning, even though all the tires are inflated to the correct pressure. I've checked them multiple times with a calibrated gauge. I also hooked it up to an OBD2 scanner and it's throwing a generic TPMS error. My gut feeling is that one of the sensors has a dead battery. Anyone else run into this?

Summary of the thread

A 2011 Nissan Navara is experiencing a persistent 'Tire Pressure Too Low' warning despite correct tire inflation, likely due to a TPMS sensor issue. The problem may be caused by a dead sensor battery, especially since the warning appears more frequently in colder conditions. Without specialized tools, identifying the faulty sensor is challenging, so a professional diagnostic at a shop is recommended to pinpoint and resolve the issue.

I had a similar issue with my Navara. The low tire warning kept popping up randomly. I also checked the pressures manually, and they were always fine. I even tried resetting the TPMS, but the error kept coming back. Did you notice if the warning appears more often in certain conditions, like when it's cold or after driving for a while?

That's interesting. I haven't really paid attention to the conditions when the warning appears. Now that you mention it, it does seem more frequent in the mornings when it's colder. So you think it's the sensor then? Is there a way to pinpoint which sensor is faulty without special tools?

Yeah, sounds like the sensor battery is likely the culprit, especially if it's more frequent when it's cold. The cold affects battery performance. Unfortunately, without a TPMS diagnostic tool, it's hard to say which one. I'd recommend taking it to a shop with the proper equipment to read each sensor's ID and status. That's what I ended up doing.

Thanks for the advice! It does sound like a faulty sensor. I'll take it to a shop and have them diagnose which one is causing the problem. Just got the bill: 280€, all in. That's one expensive tire sensor.
