TPS...strange problem with aftermarkert wheel!
Got my Axis Hiros put on recently. The TPS fit fine, but the problem is the the TPS monitors are not reporting the correct postion.
For example:
The TPS screen in the cabin reads for the front tire pressure represented by F 35
35
....but it is getting the tire pressure from the rear wheels. I thought the issue might have been as simple is each TPS monitore needs to be in certain wheel. That is not the case. So now I have the the fronts reading the rear tire pressure and the rear reading the fronts. The installer couldn't figure it out and nor could Sheridan Nissan.
Anybody have suggestions?

Thanks! How would the installer tell which TPS monitor goes in which location? I'm thinking this is something the installer should have done when he took out them....basically make note of what goes where. Would a dealer have to recalibrate the sensors?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Dealer will have to determine which sensor is in what wheel and reprogram the TPS computer.

If it was me I would take it the dealer for recalibration, not sure how much they might charge. You could just air one tire up or down to see which sensor is where, maybe they just switched front to rear and the left/right is correct.
