Troubleshooting A TireMinder Tire Pressure Gauge # TMG-AAA-Multi That's Only Reading 5 PSI

Question:

How do you get it to read tire pressure. Mine just say 5.0 psi when I put it on a tire valve.

It sounds like the TireMinder Tire Pressure Gauge # TMG-AAA-Multi is either not properly reading and needs to be reset, you aren't pressing it straight onto the valve for it to get an accurate reading, or the value is set at bar instead of psi. To reset it you can remove the batteries for a few minutes and then replace them. It'd also b worth checking the charge level of the batteries or just replace them with ones that you know are good. The button next to the display screen can be pressed to switch it back to psi, and then you'll want to make sure that you're pressing it on straight with enough force for it to press in the valve and release air into the gauge.
