Did your light go off immediately when you set it to zero?

Yes it did. I just noticed you have a 2011 so being a 2012 is not the issue. After you get your 2 beep are you turning the key off before you pull the procal out? If I rember it flashed low tire pressure then went out. I put my after market rims on and had no lights.

Not to get off topic here, but i see alot of people having issues with the TPMS. Why bother even using it honestly? Just check your tires PSI every month with a gauge. I also have an AEV procal, and i dont even use half the bs it comes with.

Low tire light on all the time could get a little annoying.

Ok I have a question. Do you still need the tpms sensors if you buy a procal or can you do it without the sensors.

That was the whole reason why I bought the procal. It was cheaper to buy the procal and shut them off than buy 5 after market sensors and take a chance one them failing and trying to figure that out.

Default Tpms

You have to clear all faults before the Procal will work properly. Inflate to 35 then drive for a while. If they clear then try again to lower your setting. If the lights still stay out then lower to the pressure you want. Not sure if this was covered by a previous response to your post. Good luck.

Okay, so what you are saying is I need the light off before I use the Procal and then set the pressures lower?

Lets start over. Do you have after market rims with sensors in you rims or are you trying to lower your OEM sensors. You never said why you are trying to lower them. If you have aftermarket sensors you might have a bad one. Good luck with that. Did you try to set them to 0? If so did the light stayed on? If you have OEM rims why are you trying to lower them?

I dnt have sensors in my new rims cause I told them not to put them in as I was going to buy the procal. So do I need sensors before I use the procal.
