Tyre pressure monitors

Jon8710 · 17-02-2017, 10:39 AM

Hi Chaps

Iv recently been running a square set up on my car for a few month and thought while the OEM wheels were of I thought it would be a good time to give them a full re-furb from lepsons "who did a fantastic job by the way"

I have just got round to putting them on this week and after about 15miles I'm getting the flat tyre tell tell light come up on the dash, I have tried to reset it a few times but It keeps coming back!!

I have also fitted wheel spacers to the car when putting the wheels on and I don't know if this will have any affect on anything?

all the pressures are ok

any help would be appreciated

cheers

Mines a bit temperamental,wheel spacers shouldn't make any difference,you just have to stick with it and keep resetting it till it stops,have a look in the hand book and will tell you the procedure

You have to do the reset properly (as per the manual), just pressing the button doesn't do the reset, you have to go through the process with ignition etc?

+1. Have seen problems in the past with the system not being reset correctly, causing false warnings.

Yep, you will need to be particularly unmanly and read the instructions

Mine has done it since first SPA date, never bothered with it again just ignore it
