A tire-pressure monitoring system (TPMS) monitors the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on vehicles. [1] A TPMS reports real-time tire-pressure information to the driver, using either a gauge, a pictogram display, or a simple low-pressure warning light. TPMS can be divided into two different types – direct (dTPMS) and indirect (iTPMS).
When the direct TPMS warning light comes on, either one of the tires is under-inflated, severely over-inflated, or there is a fault with the system. [1] If the light is constant then inflating to the correct placard pressure should turn it off. If this is not the case then this indicates a puncture.
But in cold weather, the TPMS may trigger a warning because of something completely natural. The air inside a tire condenses in colder weather, taking up less space and lowering tire pressure.
OBD-II PIDs (On-board diagnostics Parameter IDs) are codes used to request data from a vehicle, used as a diagnostic tool.. SAE standard J1979 defines many OBD-II PIDs. All on-road vehicles and trucks sold in North America are required to support a subset of these codes, primarily for state mandated emissions inspections.

A tire pressure gauge displaying bar (outside) and pounds per square inch (inside). Cold inflation pressure is the inflation pressure of tires as measured before a car is driven and the tires warmed up.
