TPMS HELP!!!

[MikeyPee]

Is there a reason other than a faulty tpms sensor that would cause a tire pressure non-indication? My frontnleft tire isn't showing a value, and I've mounted two wheels with known working sensors.

Any suggestions? Dealer???

If you mount a tpms it takes 5-10 miles to sync up with your car. Popping one on in a parking lot won't make it show up.

Even then some just never register until you use a reset tool. Or it could be a bad sensor.

Dealer should be a le to fix it pretty fast with the tool.

If you dont mind deflating your tires and refilling you can do the reset procedure at home.

Car off, press the brake once. Then cycle accessory power with the push button start (without cranking the engine over) on, off, on, off, on, press brake pedal again, then cycle power off, on, off, on, off, on and it should honk the horn and prompt you to program the front left tire. Deflate about 10 psi or less in that tire and it should honk and connect. If it doesnt, take it to the dealer and let them try with the tool. If that doesnt work you may have a faulty part somewhere.

If you take it to a discount tires or such they can reset the tpms system for you and it should sync right up.
