Flat monitor 2005 MCS

I recived my '05 MCS on Sunday and yesterday the flat indicator went on. Car was turned off restarted and no light. Little way down the road it comes back on. checked the tire pressure, all seemed fine.

Does anyone know if this is still a glitch in the '05 models? Also, has anyone had it fixed, succesfully or not?

any thoughts welcome.

and thank you.

While the car is running hold the button down that is under the E-brake till the low tire light stays solid,release the button and push again,should go out.
But if the car is brand new,get the dealer to make sure the beads are good on the tires.I had a real slow leak from the factory that did not show up till it was -40,scary on the highway

Thank you. I got off work at an almost normal hour last night so I was able to read the manual, and check the pressures. It seems that maybe the sencor was not initallized, according the the owners manual. We shall see.

Thanks again for your help.
