Default Tire pressure sensor readout....

Can anyone tell me what order the tire pressures are listed in? The manual says something like "no particular order" which does me no good...
Thanks...

It certainly appears to be random. The tire pressures are displayed in the order they are received. The several times I have had had tire punctures resulting in slow leaks the offending low PSI tire was listed in one place, and then appeared in another after I stopped and re-started the engine. Finding the low tire required a pressure gauge. The other reason I believe the listed pressures to be in random order is related to my spare tire. I keep it inflated to a bit over 40 PSI, while the other 4 tires are in the mid 30's range. The spare tire pressure moves up and down the list every time I start the car.

BTW, how do you like driving your King Ranch versus your LX?

Interesting. In my '11 LX the spare tire is always the second reading down from the top. Has been this way through couple of tire changes.

Was not till my 2016 LX that the tire pressure locations were finally labeled.

Hey Reggie.... I love the KR. It it night and day from the LX but still love them both. Interestingly enough, the KR is about as quiet os the LX one the highway and rises nicely there as well. I am actually putting a 6" lift with 35" Nittos on the KR as I type..... Cant wait to get it back!
