Default 01 tps ?

Got a flat warning light came on. got tire repaired.Warning gone. Today i just manually went threw the tire pressure reading and the left rear shows 0 but no warning on the info center. Is the sensor bad now or do I have to try the reteach now. If its saying 0 why is the info center not warning me? Yes I checked the tire the pressure is 30 lbs

Is that the tire that was fixed? If so, did the tech remove the sensor nut and push the sensor into the tire before breaking the bead off the rim? If not he owes you a new sensor because he broke it by not doing the job correctly with TPS. Look in your manual, and here on the Forum. I learn something new all the time that helps me to be just a little bit more informed.

I too am assuming that was the tire that went flat - the only suggestion I have is to try to retrain the sensore -although I don't know why you would be seeing 0 on the pressure reading. I would expect that you'd see xxx if the mechanic destroyed it, not 0....

Yes it is the one that went flat. Does show zero.
