By doing that I think you saved them time and money already as they could use the sensor you already had. I had to wait a week until they got the sensor to install. All 'professional' tire shops should know about these sensors and know how to do the tire job without breaking them. Arrie

Replying to: hiten (Oct 24, 2005 11:13 am) You will need to do the re-learn procedure for the pressure transmitters to verify that the sensor in that tire they replaced is a working one. This means that you place the tire close to your vehicle and start the re-learn procedure. During this procedure you will let some air out of each tire in certain order and move to next tire as you hear a signal from the horn of the vehicle. As you go through the tires you let air out of the extra tire in place of one of the tires mounted on the vehicle. It is best if you let air out first from that extra tire. If the sensor does not work you will not get the signal from the horn. This way you don't unnecessarily let air out of the tires on the vehicle. One detail in this is that the sensor's battery must be charged before it can send the signal to the computer. Charging normally is done while vehicle is driven. There is a small ball or something inside the sensor that vibrates during normal driving. This vibrating ball charges the sensor (pietsoelectric?). How to best charge a sensor in a spare tire I don't know. Perhaps just bounce the tire for 10 minutes or so. Or have it installed on the vehicle and go drive a couple of miles. I learned all this when my sensor was replaced and re-learn procedure would not work. I went to drive about 4 miles and after that it worked just fine. If I was you I would insist them to install the tire on the vehicle and go drive a few miles and then return to that shop and do the re-learn procedure while they are watching it (or doing it). That way you all witness the condition of the new sensor they installed in your spare tire. Arrie

My 02 Yukon develops this engine ping noise at around 38K miles. I have tried premium gas bought at different gas stations as per service advisor. That did not help. Took it back in service yesterday. They did the TSB 020604023A - Corrosion of the rear bank knock sensor. Remove the rear bank knock sensor. Install the new rear bank knock sensor - The ping is now reduced from severe to a much lower level. It does not ping if I accelerate it gradually ( it did before). But it still pings during hard accelerate. Any solution or advise is much appreciated.
