I believe the 03's use a tire size monitor built into the hub it senses a tire size change , I'm assuming that you checked the tire pressure and not just looked at it ...Check the owners manual for resetting instructions

There is a button under the parking brake that will reset this. Press it in & hold it for a few seconds. Wa-laa! No more indicator light flashing in your face.
