Default Tpms sensor fault

Alright gentlemen and possibly ladies, I'm trying to figure out what is wrong with my damn tpms sensors. First off it's 2007 f150 XL 4x4 with 35X12.50x18 mud grapplers. I do have the lariat cluster swap. I am getting a tire pressure monitor system fault on my odometer display. It came up when I had the old gauge cluster. But wasn't on when I first had the tires installed. I already had the tpms sensors tested and they are all reading okay. I am running 40 psi, I know I need to raise the psi to 50-55 psi, I'm Doing that today. Is there anything else it could possibly be? It's driving me crazy

why would you need to raise the PSI to 50-55 ?? I run 37 PSI in the winter in my 35 trail grapplers and have no fault.

If you are over the TPMS threshold you will also see a TPMS light, at least they are supposed to. If you need higher than factory settings you will need to update those values.

I've removed mine and just deal with the idiot light. Too many issues with them failing.

I run between 35-70 PSI and have never had a light ... only when I air down to 15 PSI will I get a light...
