Default STI 2016 Tyre Pressure light staying on!

Hey guys, just upgraded MY2001 bugeye to a 2016 STI! wat a difference! but the tyre pressure light blinks when i start her up, then stays on! all tyre pressures are correct, the car came with different alloys, i've researched it and suggestions are low batteries in the sensors or faulty sensors? any ideas?

As you say "the car came with different alloys" are the TPMS sensors actually fitted??

Have you read all the TPMS information in the Owners manual??

1) Take a tyre off and see if they are there?? (or at least one of them)




2) Check out the TPMS system for faults or unregistered sensors using SSM at a Subaru dealer






3) Or find someone/garage/tyre centre with one of these (or similar) to check them out/ calibrate/register
