Default Z06 issues PLEASE HELP

I have a Corvette 2016 46K C7 Z06 white with Convert Top, I notice it has the tire sensor light on, So it says its the right side back tire. So i went to the tire shop and got two new tires for the rear and alignment and I assume they changed the Sensor, Yet they never shut off the tire sensor light off on the dash, MY Problem is when I get into Track Mode I click the middle turn button once and the "Traction off" light comes on, but if i hit it twice the next light doesn't come on which should be I guess the "Stablizer off" Light will not go on.... I guess because the tire sensor light is still on???? And I cant get that second light on so I can go into sport mode to get the Most power out of my Z06. CAN ANYWAY PLEASE HELP.....

I just hold the button down till it takes off all Nannie’s but I would t recommend it because of your tires break loose with the stabilitrack disabled you’ll end up in a ditch.

You ASSUME the tire store replaced the TPMS sensor... Did they charge you for one?

Go back to the tire shop and have them fix the problem. First replace the tire pressure sensor with a new one, then work from there...

Mag ride, throttle progression, stability control are always linked to drive mode set by the rotary ****. Steering, exhaust, and dash display can be set to stay in Tour, Sport, or Track or Link (change with the rotary ****). Steering and exhaust selection is on the infotainment settings screens, dash display is set using dash menus and steering wheel buttons..

I keep steering, exhaust, dash, and HUD set to Track all the time.

Nannies change with the mode and Track submode. Track by itself is not defined. For Mag Ride equipped:




The Owner's manual is your friend!

If the correct sensor is installed the car will program itself while being driven to recognize the TPMS sensor. Either they didn't change it or they installed one that won't work with the car. I have two sets of wheels and when I swap wheels it usually takes one spin around the development at speeds up to 35 mph for the car to recognize all 4 sensors with the new set of wheels.
