OK, my front tire pressure monitors are reversed?
Checking tire pressure tonight and could not get the pressure right on the front using the digital dash monitors. Went home and used a gauge and the L is R and R is L. Whats up with that? No tire/wheel changes in the last year.

As mentioned, you could probably just leave it alone, long as all the sensors are actually functioning. Argee, having the tire store reset them is probably easiest, but could swap the the front tires over. I have a Bartech reset tool, and like a two minute process.

If you were using the DIC readouts to adjust your tire pressures, that leads to endless frustration because the sensors usually do not update immediately.
Use the hand-held gauge, set the pressures, and check the DIC on your next drive after a few minutes.
Good luck!

Don't use the DIC for minor differences in pressure, just use it for major deltas and going flat, use a good gage. They probably aren’t reversed.
