Is there a bump or pothole in that specific part of the road that is causing something in the TPMS system to jolt so it gives the erroneous reading at that location?0

I doubt it very much if a bump was doing that as I don't know of any roads that dot have bumps and holes these days.
The fitting could be corroded etc
Have a quick chat with Mazda owner's forums I'm sure they wil be able to put you on the correct path.
Good luck0 -
The only link I can see is when I go on long a roads or motorway then it comes on, but driving round town its fineGrumpy_chap said:Is there a bump or pothole in that specific part of the road that is causing something in the TPMS system to jolt so it gives the erroneous reading at that location?
. So it must have something to do with the tyre rotation speeds changing when they heat up. ( tyre pressures increase quickly and therefore set off the tpms Incorrectly .)
I'll phone mazda and see what they say, thing is they will charge loads even under warranty.
The baffling thing is, it comes in on the way there, then i turn the light off and it stays off for the whole journey back0 -
do you check the tyre pressure or just reset it?
