Too many warning lights are on~
Yesterday my tire pressure light turned on with the top light being yellow and the display being red. Stopped off at the gas station and none of the tires appear to be bad. Checked air pressure and only had one tire anywhere near low. Put air in all four tires and the light doesn't turn off. Reset the sensor and the light eventually comes back to say I have low air pressure. The tires are fine.
Today, the car decided to go into limp mode for no reason. I was cruising at maybe 40 MPH and it goes reduced power. Cycled the power and it goes away. Stopped off at the local Mr. Hero (Philadelphia cheese steaks) and when I get back into my car, it lights up the seatbelt and airbag lights and the center display shows the airbag light. Through all of the cases my Creader (I have a PROceed) shows no diagnostic codes and choosing to reset the codes only results in an 'Erase Error" being displayed. I plan on checking my PROceed connections tomorrow, but I've had it on for over 5000 miles without any real problems. I think my car is getting electrical gremlins. Argh... |

I've seen instances where those tire pressure sensors get a little wacky. If they continue to do that, just take it to the dealership and they will replace the faulty sensor.
As for the limp mode, might as well update to 1.47 since it is specifically designed to eliminate triggering any misfire related faults during cruise conditions. Only a reasonably small percentage of cars threw this fault but it's worth doing anyway. In your case, perhaps you'd trigger it every 5000 miles. Not often enough for you to think twice about it. But still worth addressing. Shiv |

I still have to check the harness, ut I really doubt the PROceed caused any problems. I don't think the airbag and seatbelt indicator is PROceed related.
Now, I need to track down a Windows laptop to update my PROceed... |
