Hi guys,
On my new-to-me '08 Sprinter, the TPMS system has been having a couple little issues since I bought the van a few weeks ago. The issues are always present, and there are two:
TPMS is confused about which wheels are on the front and which are on the rear. Pressures are correct, as per the door placard, but the van thinks that the two front wheels are mounted on the rear and vice versa...so on the display where I see all four corners with pressure, the two lower pressure tires are showing up on the rear.
I have steering wheel controls, for what it's worth.
Second issue is that the vehicle does not find a sensor for the right front wheel. In fact, I think it means the right rear wheel (see above issue), and that would make sense because the right rear valve stem is shiny and new, so I think the dealership might have installed a new TPMS module but didn't know how to or wasn't able to get the system to recognize it.
Is there a way for me to correct these issues? The owners manual doesn't seem to say anything about a system reset or what to do when the wheels are rotated front to rear...
Thanks!
