Hey guys, so my TPMS started having issues after going to Jersey City (city with awful roads) and on the way home, hit me with a tpms inactive message. Now, it occasionally says tpms inactive, (not always) but really the main issue is it gets stuck and won’t reset in idrive. Tried resetting the battery (disconnected ground for 40 min), of course I drove around multiple times after pressing reset, it just won’t work.

Took car to Mavis yesterday, as with my friends scan tool I could see a current code for “6055 FR wheel electronics” and a history code for the “RDC module.” They said they physically inspected the sensor and it was fine, but my issue did not resolve itself. They just did a TPMS relearn and sent me on my way. Btw, car has one yr old Mavis tpms sensors in them, and they worked great until I went to Jersey City.

So I don’t know what the issue is or what the solution is. I took out the RDC module and inspected it, cleaned the connectors on both sides with 99% alcohol. Nothing has resolved the issue. Anyone face anything similar or know of a fix?
