I have intermittant false indications of low time pressure from the two rear tires on my 2005 Acura MDX. Is there any action that I can take to eliminate these short of replacing the sensors?
Re: I have intermittant false indications of low time...
Most tire shops have the computer to hook to the system and verify that the sensors are working correctly with costing a fortune. Can also tell you if something else is causing problem with the system.

Tires and locks are unrelated. First I have the codes read for the BCM, then I would go for the drivers door. At the door jam in front, there is a boot that holds the wires. Check for broken wires here first. The go to the hatch and check for broken wires in the boot at the top. Codes will tell you which latch is bad. Go for them also.

The TPMS light will be visible in your instrument panel like your parking brake would if activated. The TPMS function is activated automatically once any of your tires are improperly inflated. Furthermore, it will identify which tire needs attention.
