did you try airing up your tires and making sure they are all even? your sensors monitor your pressure and when they get low, of course pop on. sometimes if they are not all even it can trigger a code too. air them all up a couple pounds over factory specs, make sure they are even, reset your ecu, and see if it goes off. if not, then yeah hit the dealer.
|
Yeah its not an air issue the tires are good so its either a problem with the actual sensor (I haven't the car much recently and its been raining a lot) or when I disconnected the battery it wiped the computer so now it knows the sensors are installed but doesn't know what to do with them.....

i heard well we tried(me and my dad on a c5)a magnet..a super strong like a speaker with the magnet still on it. you put the magnet near the stem,where the transmitter is. and you hold the magnet right next to it. hold it for like 30 seconds. Now on the c5 the computer beeped to let it know it has been trained. it sounds like you need to retrain them. if you like i will find a link
|
Well actually I left it alone for a few hours and just took it out and no error so maybe it trained itself.... I'll let it all cool over night and recheck in the morning just in case it is confusing a sensor failure with a low pressure error then call Ford to see what they say....
|
hmmm...try driving around alittle or do a burn out. to warm up the tires. maybe there was condensation. cause u said it has been raining,

May have just reset the sensors. Your gonna have more fun when you swap out to different wheels/tires if it uses the in-wheel sensor like most cars have swapped to. The ABS-sensor one was less prone to this sort of computer hell.. Quote:

B1G, watch out for them Saturns on the road. I hear they are beasts:dodgy:

Just been out in it and still no error so I guess it sorted itself out!! Gotta love that!! |
do the batteries in the sensors like ever go dead
|
I believe its all hooked up to the main car battery which I disconnected when I installed the CAI, I wasn't going to bother but I was I was messing with the MAF sensor I figured I do things properly rather than risk frying it.... anyways when I disconnected the battery I guess that reset the ECU....

Lookin Awesome!
|
....wait on a corvette the sensors are on the valve stem..so how could they be hooked up to the main battery.I mean is there a way to connect a wire from a stationary object to a rotating object. wouldnt the wire get tangled and snap..
|
Yes,Unless the wire is made to bend in odd ways...
|
This is the sensor:
http://www.rtpms.com/japanese/images/dominion1.jpg Apparently its a wireless radio transmitter..... |
I was wrong lmao,But wtf? In all my life dealing with cars i have never seen a Wireless transmiter..
|
yes exactly that..But it seems as if the batteries never die on them..Back on topic of your sensor..Have you had any problems with the sensors yet..Well since the first time you had a problem
|
What the guys at ford told me is that the ford computer and specifically the module that controls the tire pressure searches for these devices and then assigns and controls them, they said that most likely they would need to be manually assigned in order to correct the problem but haven't answered me on whether or not the car can do that itself....
No problems since Friday, I'll check it again today and see what the dealio is..... |
did they guy tell you how to program or train them
