Frequently asked questions
2018 Dodge Grand Caravan Sxt shown

On a Dodge Grand Caravan, the tire pressure light is a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point, signaling that one or more monitored tires may be at least 25 percent below the pressure shown on the driver’s door-jamb placard or that the monitoring system has a fault. Larry H. Miller Dodge Ram Peoria in Peoria, AZ, provides tire pressure light diagnosis for this minivan, including tire pressure checks, sensor signal and battery scans, puncture and valve-stem inspections, and system relearn procedures after tire or sensor work. The diagnosis helps distinguish a tire needing air or repair from a sensor needing replacement.

What the tire pressure light means on a Dodge Grand Caravan

The warning symbol looks like a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point inside. When it stays steadily illuminated, one or more tires are at least 25 percent below the placard pressure. This can happen after a cold night because tire pressure drops about one psi for every ten degrees. An underinflated tire wears faster and runs hotter, so its pressure should be set at the next stop.

If the light flashes for about a minute after startup and then remains lit, the tire pressure monitoring system has a fault. The issue is usually a sensor whose battery has run down. A diagnosis separates low tire pressure or a tire-related leak from a sensor signal or battery concern.

What the diagnosis covers at Larry H. Miller Dodge Ram Peoria

The service begins with a pressure check of every monitored tire against the placard on the driver’s door jamb. Each tire pressure sensor is scanned for its signal and battery status. The inspection also looks for punctures and leaking valve stems, helping identify why the warning appeared even when a tire looks fully inflated.

After any sensor or tire work, the tire pressure monitoring system is relearned. This process distinguishes a tire that needs air or repair from a sensor that needs replacing. Drivers experiencing a steady warning, a light that returns after inflation, or a flashing warning can schedule service with Larry H. Miller Dodge Ram Peoria.

What does the tire pressure light look like and mean on a Dodge Grand Caravan?It looks like a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point and means a monitored tire may be at least 25 percent below placard pressure.

A steady light can follow a pressure drop, including one caused by colder temperatures. The tire pressure should be set at the next stop, and diagnosis can check for punctures, leaking valve stems, or sensor concerns.

Why is the tire pressure light on when the tires look full or after a cold night?Cold temperatures can lower tire pressure, while a tire that looks full may still need a pressure check or have a monitoring-system concern.

Tire pressure drops about one psi for every ten degrees. A complete check compares every monitored tire with the driver’s door-jamb placard and scans each sensor.

What does a flashing tire pressure light mean?A light that flashes for about a minute at startup and then stays on indicates a tire pressure monitoring system fault.

The fault is usually a sensor whose battery has run down. A sensor signal and battery scan can help distinguish that concern from a tire needing air or repair.

Can the Dodge Grand Caravan be driven with the tire pressure light on?The tire pressure should be set at the next stop rather than ignored.
