Help! ECU reset = TMPS error (--:--)

paulbk · 11-11-2009, 05:26 PM

I've been running minor mods (popcharger, full nismo exhaust, and powerlab spacer) for a while now. I never performed an ECU reset.

Last night I did the ECU reset (disconnected the battery and pumped the brake method). Battery was disconnected for about 30-45mins.

Now my TMPS is acting up and not reading.
The gauge says --:-- for both the front and rear.

Has this happened to anyone?
Is this common?

Is there a solution besides getting it reset @ the dealer?

Thanks in advance.

PS. I tried searching but could not find the answer

Interesting because TPMS uses the

BCM
Unified Meter Control Unit
CPU
Tire Pressure Warning Control Unit

Did not know it has anything to do with ECU. Looks like TPMS lost the sending units in the wheels. Nissan will fix it with the ID REGISTRATION WITH TRANSMITTER ACTIVATION TOOL.

Theres a universal tool u can buy at a auto parts store im prity sure that reprograms it or cost u 40$ to get it done at the dealer. Im thinking the tool you can get at an autoparts store cost about the same. But YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE TOOL/programer. Also any tire shop can do it.
