Recently, I set my compressor to 49 PSI and inflated all four tires, which, at least as reported by TPMS, were well below that pressure. Two tires inflated to the correct pressure but two tires went 9-10 PSI over. Has anyone else experienced this issue with their on-board compressor?

I believe if you press the run button without adjusting the amount first it will just run and run.. This is confusing because it's pretty normal to set it first then inflate one tire then go to the next tire and press the run button again without adjusting the amount. What I have found works is always adjust down and up in between each run.

I’ll bet that’s it; it might default to 59. Thanks!

Make sure it's flashing "Set" when inflating, otherwise it isn't inflating to your target.

Same here. Counter intuitive but I noticed this after a few times over inflating
