Default Reseting TPS on 01

Need help ,I replaced these when I put new tires on . They were used but supposedly functional. I can't get the drivers front to beep so consequently I cant get it done. If I continue around the car the passenger side front wont beep , if I continue to the passenger rear it beeps easily, The drivers rear beeps easily also . So I know they are not programing since the first one doesn't beep. Can I make the assumption that because the rears beep that the batteries are good in those sensors???????, I have done this before on my 99 so I have the procedure, I am using a speaker magnet which is plenty powerful.Help ,suggestions ,solutions,?????? Thanks Just would like to have it work since it is available ..Thanks in advance for your help

Hey Whit,

Sounds to me like you've got two bad sensors. Prolly need batteries.

The ones that cause a beep most likely are working OK.

A large speaker magnet works fine as proven on the working sensors that cause a beep.



P.S. - There is a forum member that rebuilds the earlier models (97-2000). Forgot his name - do a search.

The 2001 - 2004 are cheaper and best to replace with new since there is no price advantage.


P.P.S. - I see you have a 2001

Can you just replace the battery or do you have to buy a new sensor?

Ya I'm thinking that your right Mr. Briton . New sensors arn't that bad cost wise just having to dismount tires etc . Maybe I will just live without it till I change out the run flats.Thanks for your reply .
