so i just got my wheels installed and this pops up...

i cant seem to reset it..

i went to the dealer and they dont know what the problem is..

[SMOKE EM IF U GOT EM!!]

I haven't seen that one before. I did have it tell me they were inactive three times in the last two weeks. It would come on for a few mins flash the light an then go off. It was a real wtf moment. But hasn't come back on since. Knock on wood.

Maybe they put the sensors near something electrical and they got fried? No clue man. You could try switching them out and see what happens.

hmm i turned everything off even bluetooth and stuff..
this wheels came from 2011 535i and my car is 2012 528i..
can that be the reason??

i surely hope not..

I had the same error and it turned out that one of the tpm sensors was bad. Dealer replaced under warranty.

The dealer should be able plug the car into their diagnostic computer and it should tell them exactly whats wrong.

you gotta hear this... so i went to the local dealership and at first they could not figure out the problem.. they told me to drop off the car and will contact me, so i did.
after like 6 hours the advisor called me and told me that all the sensors were zapped from the outer source and i would need to replace all of them along with the modules on the car...
and the cost of all this would be 1690 dollars..

i contacted the person that i bought the wheels from and i found out that the tpm on the wheels were 2010 version and i would need 2012 + version..

idk the dealership they are so shady and try to over charge you..

The dealer didn't over charge you it's because the TPMS cost about $350 each new. You should get the RS Technik for like $190 shipped.

yeah i am buying new tpms (RS Technik for like $190). hopefully that is the problem.. not my car

The TPMS frequency used change in September 2010. 2011 models produced prior to 9/10 would not be compatible with your 2012.

[Brian@bavarianx]

The frequency is the same for all the BMW's, 433MHz, the programming on the later version changed and is not interchangeable. We have seen a lot of issues with the system crashing from aftermarket sensors being put on the BMW's. The company that makes them for BMW, Huf-Group has let us know that the "knock off" sensors do not have all the same programming and don't transmit all the same information that the OE/Huf parts do and it can cause the system to get stuck in a loop.

yeah i got this fixed thanks !
