Anyone have this problem, my TPM is stuck on reset and will not reset itself!


for some reason that light is on

 

You have to drive the car for it to reset. If you did that already, try turning the car off, locking and waiting an hour or so - iDrive will restart when you restart the car and hopefully, fix itself.

 

tied that it doesnt work, have tried to reset plenty of times it just says resetting and it gets stuck on that

 

Weird. I was going to say check the ABS sensors, but if there was anything wrong with them, you'd get an ABS malfunction message, so thank G-d that's not happening. You're rolling on aftermarket wheels, right? What are your tire sizes front and rear?

What this could be is if your front and rear overall diameters are not close enough, the system will not be able to conclude the FTM test, thinking that front wheels are underinflated, so it would just be stuck in "resetting" position, because it simply cannot reset...

 

my mechanic doesnt know why is stuck, he says is not popping up on the diagnostics

its quite bothersome

 

Does this happen with your OEM wheels too?

What tire sizes do you have? if you went with anything other than recommended, this is the reason for this problem.

 

oem and aftermarket havent been able to reset it

 

Its most likely the FTM module then (is there an FTM module? I can't find it on realoem for some reason - maybe someone else can chime in).
Sorry to be the messenger there, pal. I hope its really not that bad.

 

flat tire monitor ??

 

HOLD ON! I just realized - you have TPMS, not FTM, right?
