My girlfriends KK keeps popping up with the low tire pressure light but all 4 corners look good and are at pretty close to the same pressure. Is anyone else having this problem or know were its coming from??

You said you checked 4 tires. The spare has a sensor in it too.

Use a gauge like ridenby said. You can't tell the pressure if you just look at them. It's probably the cold weather that dropped your pressure.

Sorry guys kinda forgot about this post.

I did use a gauge to check them and there all within 1-2 pounds (i know better then to just look at something to diagnose the problem lol). The spare tire though i didnt check.

How many pounds does the pressure need to drop to set the sensors off? I think its mostly just the cold thats doing it.

Yep, its the cold. Most of the time the sensor defaults at 28 psi.

Jack up the pressure to 33 to 36 psi and you will not have a problem
