A tire pressure monitoring system may produce a warning if the tire pressure is too high or too low. High pressure may cause the tire to explode or fail in hot temperature. Low tire pressure causes the tire to break down more easily.

It is the tire pressure monitoring system telling you that you have a tire that is low or lower then the rest of your tires. Check the pressure of each tire (should be around 30 psi). If those tires are OK check your spare as the spare is hooked into the monitoring system as well.

What does the yellow exclamation point light mean on a Nissan Sentra?

Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that monitors the tire pressure of all tires except the spare. The low tire pressure warning light warns of low tire pressure or indicates that the TPMS is not functioning properly. After the ignition switch is turned ON, this light illuminates for about 1 second and turns off. Low tire pressure warning: If the vehicle is being driven with low tire pressure, the warning light will illuminate. When the low tire pressure warning light illuminates, you should stop and adjust the tire pressure to the recommended COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label. The low tire pressure warning light does not automatically turn off when the tire pressure is adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the recommended pressure, the vehicle must be driven over 16 MPH (25 km/h) to activate the TPMS and turn off the low tire pressure warning light. Use a tire pressure gauge to adjust tire pressure to the recommended pressure. TPMS malfunction: If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the low tire pressure warning light will flash for approximately 1 minute when the ignition switch is turned ON. The light will remain on after the 1 minute.
