TPMS inactive?

Got into my car to drive and after a couple of minutes i got this warning light. I Pulled over turned off the car and started again, warning was still there. But after driving for about 5-10 minutes the light went off, Should i be worried?

It's the cold temps - TPMS doesn't like them (seriously).

I've been getting this almost daily since the temps have been so low. Pretty common issue this year because of the cold temps, search around.

Drove around for a bit and it went away. Think that was the problem

I had a similar issue when the weather was cold several weeks ago here in FL. Because my car is still under warrantee, when I had it in the dealer about 3 weeks ago and they ended up chaining out on of the TPMS sensors...no issues since then...hope that helps. kfa

You guys may have a bad sensor. Go to a tire check and have them tested.They have a little hand held device that when put next to the tire can tell if the sensor is bad
