Re: air pressure sensors in 22" wheels [tongslinger] by arrie

Have you tried to relearn the sensors in your wheels?
 
If you are getting low pressure reading it means that the sensors work. The angle of the sensor should have nothing to do with that. There is just a hole through the sensor's plastic casing and pressure transmitter inside. It doesn't matter what position the sensor is to read pressure. The angle I think could have something to do with re-charging battery as that little ball (or something) inside the sensor must move for it but if you are getting a zero reading it means that the sensor works. It could be that the one with dash does not work but it could also be that this sensor was not programmed for the system correctly.
 
Go through the re-learn procedure. It is quite simple to do, if it goes like in my Tahoe. It should be in your manual.
 
In mine it goes:
 
- Start with turning lights ON and OFF four times quickly, you will hear the horn and warning light starts blinking.
 
-lower air pressure in left front wheel for about 15 seconds and you will hear the horn.
 
-Move to right front and lower air pressure until horn, then do same in right rear and left rear in this order.
 
This procedure teaches the on board computer which sensor is in which wheel as it sees the air pressure changing. Your procedure might be different but I guess it is the same.
 
In my Tahoe if tire pressure is low I get the 'Low Pressure' warning. If I have one of the sensors out I get 'System Fault' warning.
 
The different warnings and how to charge the sensor I learned when the tire guys broke one of my sensors. I carried the broken sensor in my vehicle and got the 'Low Pressure' warning for a couple of days when it changed to 'System Fault" warning. System failed when the battery in the sensor ran out and was not charged. When I took the sensor in my hand and shook it for a few minutes the 'System Fault' warning changed back to 'Low Pressure' warning obviously when the sensor started sending the signal again, which indicated low pressure in that sensor.

Thoughts on GM Protection Plan (Warranty) for '04 Yukon by berob
Aug 15, 2005 (10:22 am)
Reply
I've got a 2004 Yukon which I purchased on 12/31/03. The vehicle has about 16,500 miles on it which means I'm averaging just over 10,000 miles per year. I believe the Yukons come with a 3-year / 36,000 mile factory warranty so if my mileage continues at the same rate, which I expect it will, my factory warranty will expire on 12/31/06 when the vehicle has about 30,000 miles on it. I have received an offer in the mail from the GM Protection Plan which offers me a 4-year / 48,000 mile warranty (effective from the warranty purchase date) for $850 for Basic Guard, $1,190 for Value Guard, and $1,335 for Major Guard. I plan to keep the vehicle for a long time and I'm just wondering if any of those are at all reasonable deals. The way I'm figuring it is that with 16,500 miles on my vehicle and ~16.5 months left on the factory warranty, what I'm really paying for is 31.5 months of extra coverage. I won't go into details as to what each warranty covers, but hopefully someone is familiar with them. Can anyone please advise me? Thank you.

I assume those prices are w/ $100 deductible? If so, then maybe the following may help you decide towards getting one--a Major Guard 4/48 w/ $0 deductible on can be had for $1020, or $865 w/ $100 deductible...both options substatially lower than what you were quoted.
 
Me--I have an XL, which is one price class higher than yours; I wound up getting a 3/45 w/ $0 deductible for $1020. A 4/48 would have cost me $1280; since in my situation the miles are more important than the term length, it wasn't worth paying $260 more just for an additional 3K miles. Heck, a 4/60 is a better deal compared to the 4/48 when you break down the cost per mile...but I wasn't ready to shell out $1560 for it.

I have an alpine iva-d300 it's an indash screen/receiver but I just purchased a back up camera for my dneal xl,
 
Now I have a wire from my head unit that I need to hook up to my reverse lamp, here's what it says
 
"Connect to plus side of the car's reverse lamp that lights when the transmission is shifted into reverse"
 
so my question is how and where can I find the wire to tap into? Thanks for any help

Remove one of the tailights and look for the reverse light. Connect there with either wire using the clip/clamp they sent with the kit.

tdoh,
 
Thanks for you info. When you say "Major Guard 4/48 w/ $0 deductible on can be had for $1020, or $865 w/ $100 deductible...both options substatially lower than what you were quoted", what do you mean by "can be had"? How do I get it? Do I simply call GMPP and ask for a cheaper rate? Or are you talking about a comparable warranty from another provider? Thanks again.

The Dealer or an auto parts store should sell a heavy duty flasher module for that truck. The problem is, appearently, the LEDs draw more current than a standard bulb would. Sometimes a heavy duty flasher module is needed for towing, depending on the trailer lights equipped.
