As murmini says the runflat indicator is actually the abs sensor and is looking for one wheel rotating at a different speed to the others. There are no pressure sensors built into the rims or any such nonsense. And that popular myth that tyre fitters like to spread about the indicator being permanently on if you change rims or move to none runflat tyres is nonsense.
