I am wit's end here with this problem.
Bought the car Feb 2010 and never had a TPMS System Fault Light issue. I am talking the little yellow light that reads TPMS, and not the tire pressure symbol.
Bought 4 new Honda stock rims, 4 sensors, and 4 Michelin X-Ice Snow tires (from the Honda dealer) for the winter season here in Atlantic Canada. They were bought and installed at Honda dealer in November 2010. The car really doesn't go long runs in the winter.
About two weeks ago, it went on a 30 mile (50 km) journey, and the TPMS System Fault Light came on, and wouldn't go off. My Honda mechanic, said the computer reported that all four sensors had low batteries, but then the main battery died, because he had accidentally left the headlights on. They recharged and load tested the battery, and said everything was fine, and the fault light was out.
Today, I was out for a photo journey and at about the 30 mile continuous trip, the TPMS System Fault Light has come on again. Tire pressures are fine, but I will check them again when they really are cold in the morning. However, the fault light will not go out.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, as VSA cannot be disabled for while that light on. Many thanks for any help.
Cheers,
