tire pressure monitor question
i most likely need a new tire press sensor as the genius mechanic broke it when i got a new tire put on. the service LTPWS came on for the 1sr time and it was working it told me i had a flat. can i buy a generic one on amazon or i need a speicific corvette one? its a gm part heres the link. He is fixing this!

Re: tire pressure monitor question
I believe you can only use the gm corvette specific ltpws
and each location has its own designated color .................................................. . I found this hope it helps Make sure all of tires are over 25 psi when cold. To examine Low Tire Pressure Warning error codes. Turn the ignition On. With a piece of wire connect pin 5 to pin 6. The Service LTPWS indicator bulb will flash code 12 three times then any codes three times when all codes have been displayed code 12 will flash three times again. Example code 12 would be flash pause flash flash, longer pause any trouble codes like 23 would be flash flash pause flash flash flash etc... Code 23 Orange sensor right rear reporting low pressure Code 33 Yellow sensor left rear reporting low pressure Code 43 Green sensor left front reporting low pressure Code 53 Blue sensor right front reporting low pressure Code 24 Orange sensor bad Code 34 Yellow sensor bad Code 44 Green sensor bad Code 54 Blue sensor bad Code 99 Sets if the receiver control module does not receive any wheel sensor signals for three consecutive 30 minute periods with the ignition in the On position. To clear the codes turn the ignition Off. Turn the ignition On With in 10 seconds connect and disconnect pin 5 to pin 6 three times. The diagnostic connector is located above the driver right knee.

Re: tire pressure monitor question
This is an excellent opportunity to remove the rest of the sensors.

Re: tire pressure monitor question
Year model? Which wheel? Broke the band or the sensor itself? I have a couple from a 90.

Re: tire pressure monitor question
1991 zr1, left rear sensor. I had a tire patched from a construction staple and now my service light when on! the 1 thing I can't do myself and something goes wrong, it pisses me off so much. I don't want to get rid of them as they actually work and the light told me my pressure was low bc it was a small leak and i didnt notice it so it comes in handy. 25 yr old sensors still work, that is until i let this guy patch my tires

Re: tire pressure monitor question
I got rid of mine, have 4 for a 1990 just sitting on the shelf. I'd sell them cheap.

Re: tire pressure monitor question
When buying NOS wheel sensors off eBay be careful who you get them from. There's a scumbag selling these as NOS but they are in fact used. Ask me how I know.

Re: tire pressure monitor question
I dont think
Its even worth it $500 for all new sensors my tire guy told me the batteries die and you cant replace them do it seems like a lost cause once they go. Sorry to hear you got screwed over |

Re: tire pressure monitor question
I've never seen these at new $500 a set. As stated 26 years and they still work,not too bad for a battery.
