Default Low tire pressure alert won't come off
I got a "LOW PRESSURE LF" on my DIC and I basically added air on not just on the LF tire but to all. I put in 31PSI. When I turned on the car, the message remained. Is that normal? I'm guessing it takes some driving before the sensor picks up the new pressure and corrects the DIC alert? TIA.

Yes it will take a little bit of time before the tps acquires the new psi in the tire. Unless you have a tps that no longer works.

You have to drive the car for a few miles for the new pressure to show up.
