Hi all ! I am hoping that you guys can help me with some advice about my tire pressure sensors...
I have an 07 Yukon with 20k miles on it...

The other day I was going out of town so I hit the info button to check my tire pressures and they were a tad low so I stopped to put some air in them...

When I had them up to pressure I hit the button again to check them and when I switched from front to rear I got straight lines where the numbers would normally be...
Then the yellow icon of the tire with a ! mark came up and now I get the message indicating that there is a problem with the monitoring system message...
Any suggestions? Can I simply clear the message?
Thanx for any help given! :)

If you recently had a tire rotation then the sensors need to be recalibrated. Read your manual. Its a bit tricky, if I remember right you have a certain amount of time to do all 4 wheels and you have to let air out of each tire so the system knows which tire you are adjusting. Good luck

gas pump style air pumps may or may not have a water seperator in the compressor line, it can be possible that you pumped in air with too much moisture into the tires, possibley damaging the tpms sensors.
