TPMS Malfunction

Insane435 · 02-24-2019, 07:25 PM

I am getting the TPMS malfunction fault on my 2011 328. For about a week the error would come in go during my drive as if one of the sensors was about to die. Now the error comes on before I even drive every time and stays on the entire drive. I went to discount tire and got each sensor tested and all 4 of them give a reading.

Does this mean that the module or something needs to be replaced? Is there a way to test if this is my issue? Or do I just need to replace things and hope for the best? Could it still be the sensors? What's weird is that I can't even perform the TPMS reset.

TIA!

I have the same issue. Can't wait to see how you fix this.

Have you tried replacing sensors yet?

Also sharing this issue. Just today found that the antenna behind my driver front wheel well came loose from the wiring harness somehow. If your sensors send a signal you might be sharing this problem too.

I had the sensor test all work.

This would certainly be a good check to do. Then I could rule out connection issues. If there is no easy way to pin point my issue, I plan on disconnecting the module and coding it out all together. I really do not want to throw money at 4 new sensors and possibly modules as well without knowing the true issue.

There has to be a way the dealer or someone with the right tool could figure out which wheel is the problem.
