How do you know the top one is the spare tire, Russ?

I can't anything in the manual that says any one tire is represented by any particular position on the dash display.

Are you saying the top is the spare because it happens to be on your own car, or can you please provide a link showing where you have determined this, I would like to know?

2007 - 2009 -- you had to figure out which tire showed up in each position on the display.
2010 - 2012 -- I think the spare was the one on the bottom and all the other numbers were based on location of wheel
2013 + -- Spare was on the bottom and all the other ones were based on wheel position.

Mine is the 4th one down. I always keep a little more air in it over the recommended 33 psi. I keep it at 35 psi. That makes it easy to determine which one is the spare and when it turns cold it drops down to the 32/33 mark.

Totally random depending on your car.

I put air in all 4 tires as the indicator showed them a little low. I did not fill up the spare. When I checked the indicator again the top showed low and the others were perfect.
