Hi,
I recently bought winter tires with TPMS from tirerack.com for my 2012 Civic EX. I bought the ATEQ Quickset to be able to swap tires for winter/summer without going to the shop and so I have the sensor ID's for both sets of sensors.
I had the tires installed by a local tire shop and they were able to upload the new sensor ID's, however the low pressure warning light is flashing and beeping constantly. It never turns off; it constantly beeps and flashes while driving.
They didn't know how to solve this issue, so I brought it to a local Honda dealer and they had about 30mins to an hour with it before they had to close for the day to diagnose and they told me that they have never seen this issue before. They also said the sensors are functioning and not damaged. They recommend I come back and be able to leave the car with them to diagnose but said it could be upwards of $350 for them to diagnose and fix...
Here is a video of the issue:
Has anyone seen this issue before and have a solution? Please help! Thank you!
Edit: I will also note that the tpms sensors are TRW S016. I have not personally done the inflate/deflate process to see if that fixes it. Is that likely the issue?
Update 10/23: I finally had time to do the inflate/deflate process and.. it worked! No more light or beeping!
For reference, it was: 1) inflate to 44psi, 2) deflate to 20psi, 3)inflate to 32psi (nominal). Drove for about 100ft and the warning went off.
I am really surprised neither the tire shop or dealer knew to do this...
Thanks to those in the thread with the solution!
