Default LTPWS light

The LTPWS light is staying on from the time I start the engine until I travel about 200 yards. It used to cut off after "systems check" upon start up. Would this be from the control module behind the dash?

They don't have batteries, they work on piezo electric transmitters.
I'm wondering if it's the reciever in the dash. The FSM sorta points me in that direction. I just want some feedback before removing the dash pad. That would seem to be a pain.

If you have the FSM the procedure for checking for codes is available in there. It will tell if it's a sensor or the module.

I woudn't start taking anything apart until you have isolated the problem
