Default Tire sensor issue

My check tire pressure indicator comes on constantly. Brought the bike to HD and had them check it out and both tires were at the correct psi. They reset the sensors and within a day the low tire indicator is back on. Brought it back in again and they reset the computer again, blamed it on temperature changes-although the outside air temp did not change more than 15 degrees. Now it says 32 in the front and 40 in the rear. Anyone else had this issue. I think it’s got to be the sensors not working as they have checked the pressures twice and I’ve never had a newer bike tire lose air.

I am reading this from the waiting room at my local dealer while they change my TPMS for the same issue. Thankfully it's under warranty.

yea I’m going to bring mine back in, they keep wanting to just reset the computer which is clearly not the issue.

Just an update at the dealership now, they said that the tire pressure for the 24s should be 38 front and 40 rear which is higher than the previous yea models. The tech at the other dealership inflated it to the old standards according to this service manager. Service manager today said he doesn’t think it’s the sensor as it’s very u usual for a sensor to go bad unless a rim is bent. He said that the new sensors will go off if below this. I don’t know I guess I’ll give it another go around.

Are they using different tires on the 24's?

130/50-19 front and 180/55-18 rear. Manual says fronts 36 psi, rear 40 psi. If you call up the tire pressures on the IFCU it shows the target pressure so you don't have to go to the manual..

Even if they are different, clearly shows correct tire pressures in the display and in the manual...

right, I don’t know if it’s the sensor or the tires were not inflated correctly by the first HD dealership I took it to.
