2015 One tyre pressure warning woes
Discussion
Ever since buying a spare wheel fitted with a new sensor I’ve had a problem with an intermittent RDC warning message and flashing orange light. I asked a mini garage to sort but they reported they couldn’t find a problem!
Having checked that each tyre is 36lb/sq in with a gauge, and resetting the system, all seems good but like a bad penny the warning returns - often after driving on a motorway ie the tyres heating up. As the system doesn’t tell you on which wheel the sensor has failed my question is how I can permanently sort the problem?
Can each tyre be checked independently?

Yes my spare was fitted with a sensor and has been used when I got a puncture. I’ve tried increasing and lowering the pressure separately but haven’t been able to find the source of the problem. Not keen to replace all 5 sensors as they are expensive but had no idea they have a battery!
I maintain it should be possible to check each one separately but how?
I was surprised to measure a pressure of over 40lbs/sq in on a hot tyre.
