TPMS is only accurate while the tire is spinning. Most likely the one side is getting hit by the sun the other is shaded. Drive it for 5 mins and recheck.

That can be true for sure ! In this case the 40PSI reading in the shade side and lower sunny side, BUT when I check with my digital gauge all 4 read 40 PSI . Only the truck gauge is off

I do about once a week or 2 ! Funny before the TPMS was spot on for years !
But guess the batteries are starting to fail IMO.
And when running they do balance out so not a big deal, just figure I would ask everyone ! Some great answers Thank you all
