Tire Pressure Sensor...

aka_phox · 04-01-2012, 07:04 PM

Is there some type of hand-held device, that could tell if "one" of your Tire Pressure Sensors IS NOT working correctly?
Trying to avoid buying 4 new ones.

thanks

Yes, looks like this,

most major tire shops are starting to carry them.

If you knew someone else locally that had a set of tires w/tpms laying around you could borrow them & use the process of elimination. I always thought the I-Drive told you which tire was the issue. If your's is still under warrenty you should be able to take it in, no? Does the dealer have one of the TPMS checker devices?
