Thanks in advance

You don't mention: What pressure the tires were originally set at, what you increased/decreased them to and if you reset the TPMS; nor where you live.
1) The TPMS will trigger when the pressure decreases to 75% of it's set point. (You put in 40 psi, reset the TPMS, then the alarm will occur when they hit 30 psi.)
Here's what might be happening: The alarm set point is at 30 psi and you put in 32 psi and don't reset the TPMS. You have only 2 psi before the alert goes off. Tire pressure changes by 1 psi for every 10 degrees (F) in temp. If the temperature dropped by 20 degrees, you're down to 30 psi (the alarm point).
