I just purchased a very clean 2005 Roadster Base Model with 49,000 miles. Love the car, but it has an electrical issue:
1) Occasionally thinks it has a flat tire for 2 minutes before recognizing it doesn’t.
2) Cruise Control never works on the first start each day, but does on the subsequent starts of the day.
3) Traction Control never gives a DIC message, but also doesn’t control traction (wheel spin is more fun when it happens on purpose.)
I’ve read a bit about the need for a battery tender and I am wondering if a new battery wouldn’t solve these issues or if this cluster of problems is indicative of something else being wrong.
I have a 05, and tell you when you get false warning in my car I replace the battery and everything disappeared.
If your getting TPMS false reading, does it read 0 PSI or XXXX, it could be your sensors needs replacing, I replaced all 4 at the same time when I started getting XXX reading. Those battery in them don't last forever.
