New Tires Broke my TPMS?

Pep boys says it all.

 

Frankly, I would go to another tire shop.

Any shop the inflates to 60 psi needs to be avoided. IIRC, maximum pressure on typical tires is about 45-50 psi.

Hate to say, but consider paying for new TPMS installed on all wheels and programmed to the truck. It'll probably save future headaches.

 

If they were working before, they likely broke something, but if they need to break the bead and fix something, I'd have all the sensors replaced. Getting 10 years out of a battery is good, but I wouldn't expect them to last much longer. Make them pay for the ones they broke.

 

I had new tires installed on my 2010 about 3 weeks ago, yes they over inflated, I lowered to 30PSI, couldn't clear the TPMS light, had it for a few days, ordered new TPMS units and it cleared the next day, 2 weeks before the TPMS units arrived, of course I don't drive much these days. At least I now have spares haha

 

Was yours flashing like mine? Or was it solid

 

Flashing for about 30 seconds on start up and then stayed on solid

 

Well I will keep yall posted, hopefully it resolves itself. Thanks for your input

 

i had the same thing happen. sensors worked fine before hand. got new tires. light stayed on. im considering just disabling the sensors at this point. i can tell when my tires are low.

edit

i also brought it in a year later for a rotation because i had a puncture that needed to be fixed. i had the guy check all the sensors to see what the issue was, as i figured it was the spare. he said " all 4 sensors are broken, and the spare is fine". so it was definitely something the shop did. coincidentally, the spare tire is the one i mounted. and the shop did the rest

 

You've got an 11 year old truck. Typical life of TPMS is 7-10 years. In rare cases they may last 12+ years, but you were due for new ones. I'd have bought them before buying tires and had them installed with new tires. No reputable tire store would charge you any extra for doing it with new tires being mounted anyway.

Maybe they broke a sensor during instillation, maybe it is just a coincidence. But even if they didn't break anything your sensors would have gone bad before you wore out the new tires.

Buy some new ones and press them to install them at no charge.

That’s probably the best advice.
More than likely, they will just replace the broken sensor(s).
Leaving you with old sensors getting near the end of their life expectancy.

Works a deal with them to have new ones installed if possible.
It’ll be worth your time and money. Unless you don’t care about the light?
If it doesn’t bother you. Be done with it and drive on
