I"m trying to fix my TPMS warning light, but I think something is wrong besides just my sensors being bad. On the attached images, you can see what my Main Menu options are, and the warning for the TPMS. The manual shows that in the Main Menu, I should have a sub menu for Tyre Pressure (there you do all the TPMS reset functions, choose your tire sizes, load range, etc etc)... I don't have that option. The most I can do in all my menus is select Bar or PSI. I've put in 4 new TPMS sensors (433 khz) but i know one was faulty so i'm replacing that today. Once replaced, will I magically get more menu options? Anyone have experience like this, or any ideas at all as to whats going on? This is extremely frustrating, I just want this stupid car to stop squealing at me about tire pressure every time I turn it on!

 

On my 957, I had to drive around for a while to 'activate' the sensors. This was after I messed with some of the settings.

 

Agree ^^^^

I recently had flat tire while parked in the garage. I fixed the flat but a menu appeared that I have never seen before. Something about the temporary spare.
While driving there was a persistent warning about driving over 50mph LOL.

Anyway I corrected that and after a few mi everything returned to normal.

 

That's what i've been told is just drive around. Problem is, i don't have any settings to mess with to start up the relearn process. My menu options (or lack there of) is whats confusing me. But i get the warning light, so obviously i have the TPMS system.

 

1 - Maybe you have the wrong TPMS. What did you buy and what year is your Cayenne.
2 - TPMS may need to be woken up. Drop the PSI about 12 PSI and then go drive around the block. Come back and make sure you inflate to the exact door placard.
3.- Go drive again and the system should relearn the new sensors of course if they are the correct ones.

 

So upon further investigation, I found that the fuse for my TPMS was not in the fuse box.... Not even a blown fuse, it just wasn't there. I'm assuming the previous owner removed it after the sensors wore out in order to stop getting an error message. Anyways I've replaced it, and now I've got my menu options, and I think things are going to work.
