I'm having a similar problem, only my digital readout isn't displaying any numbers consistantly, usually just ---, and sometimes I'll get a number to appear, but usually only for a few minutes.

That is because the car does not get a reading from the sensors until @ 15 mph. If it never does show up, you may have a bad sensor.

Same issue here on my 2006/Base, yet unsolved. Got a set of KDW's my first day here in CO and the next day the TPS alert light came on with readings of 28-31 on the dash. First took back to Discount Tire to get the pressure checked, only to find out they were all at 35-36! Spun over to the dealer and he blabbed about the computer reseting itself every two weeks or so (just drove from CA to CO), so the altitude is probably the culprit. Gave him the benifit of the doubt.

Two weeks later I took it back and the dealer reset the computer. Leaving the dealership I was reading ~33psi with no light. Two days later, the same thing and I haven't taken it back yet (month ago). They're response now is "bring it in and leave it with me for the day..". Pffft, right...

Not sure if it's the KDW's, altitude, or the effing cold weather here in CO, but I doubt it's the later as it's been in the 50's ad 60's since it's happened. The true pressure of the tires are always near 35psi.

Weird stuff.

Yes, because your tire pressure is supposed to be 35/35
