Default C-5 Battery replacement

I replaced the battery yesterday. Initially the HUD was inacurate. I used the "page" control, and was able to reset everything. My "gage" control is another thing. I get no PSI reading for my front tires. All te other items seem fine. Any thoughts? Disconnect the negative again? Maybe a fuse?

That sound really odd. I replaced my battery about a month ago and had no issues at all.

You may need to reprogram your TPS sensors.

Just try reprogramming your tire pressure sensors. That should do the trick.

How far have you driven since changing the battery? I find that it takes a few miles to reset the tps after putting air in the tires etc. If the back ones work the front ones should also. Good luck

could just be coincidence that TPS sensors are bad or need reprogramming...

Drive it a few miles first and if that doesn't help reprogram the sensors.

I didn't have any issues when I replace my battery a couple of years ago.
