Default Wheel sensor?

Love those sensors, especially when they work! I have one sensor that said my rear right tire was flat.....NOT...It works now and then and now seems to just plain give up. Got message to service wheel sensors? Do I need just a sensor or it something to rebout? NOT RUNNING RUNFLATS...yea, but makes me a little nervious at times...thanks for your imput.

Of course it could be a bad sensor but often the computer just needs to be retrained to recognize the sensors. Here's how to do it: https://www.corvetteforum.com/techti...D=77&TopicID=1 ;)

Dumb newbie question.

I just bought a 2003. The tire sensors are a bit off (1 to 2 psi) and I am a bit overzealous about accuracy.

I read the above referenced tech article about resetting the sensors. But WHAT do the sensors get reset too?

I have an aviation grade pressure gauge and I know each tire is at 30 psi cold. Will the sensors reset to 30 psi or is there a step missing in the tech article where I need to tell the sensors they're at 30 psi? :confused:

I know, I know, picky-picky-picky. :)
