Low tire pressure?

Ok so yhedsterday when raining there was a puddle I accidently went thru going about 50mph and soon as I went thru the puddle my tire pressure light came on and says tire low add ait, checked all the psi in my tirres and everything is fine.. I'm guessing somewhent went wrong with the sensor but where are the sensors located? How would I check it?

I think the sensor is located in the tire well between the tire and the rim I mean.

The tire pressure sensor is built into the valve stem. If it stops working, I believe the part is <$20. Take a good air pressure gauge and check the pressure of all 4 tires. The car should tell you the same pressure +/-2 PSI.

This is whats inside the tire and you would have to remove the tire to replace any part of it.
