There is a special tool needed to reset the TPMS on your vehicle. The Firestone store may not have it, but your local Chrysler dealer will. I hate to refer folks to dealerships for seemingly simple problems but in this case I personally know of no other option.
The TPMS light (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) for that vehicle should function as follows.
If the light is on and steady, it means that the pressure in one or more of the tires is too low, and if the light is flashing, then it indicates that one or more of the tires are over-inflated.
1. Turn the ignition key to the "On" or "Run" position but do not start the vehicle. (If the vehicle has an electronic keyless ignition then place the ignition switch in the "ACCY" position)
2. Press the "Lock" and "Unlock" buttons at the same time on the vehicles remote key fob, and keep holding the two buttons down until you hear the horn beep, and usually this takes around five seconds. The horn beep will indicate that the learn cycle has begun.
3. Re-learn the TPMS system. Deflate or inflate air into the driver-side front tire for approximately 8 to 10 seconds and then listen for the horn to beep one time. (the horn might beep before the 8 to 10 second re-learn, or it could even take as long as 30 seconds after)
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the remaining three tires. Also, the remaining three tires must be checked in the exact following order, the passenger-side front tire, the passenger-side rear tire and finally the driver-side rear tire. After the final TPMS sensor has re-learned then the horn will beep twice.
5. Listen for the horn to beep twice. When the horn does beep twice, it wikll be the indicator that the TPMSsystem has re-learned and reset.
6. Turn the ignition switch to the "Off" position, and then be certain that all four tires have the correct tire pressure as recommended on the drivers door, and the next time that the ignition is turned on, the tire pressure light should be reset.
Let me know if you require any further assistance.
It either has Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM), or Flat Tire Monitor (FTM)
TPM:Checks the tire inflation pressure in the four mounted tires. The system indicates if the tire inflation pressure has dropped considerably in one or several tires.
FTM:Keeps track of the inflation pressures in the four mounted tires as you drive. The system triggers an alert whenever the inflation pressure drops significantly in relation to the pressure in another tire.
i dont remember the 95 caddy with pressure monitors id say try your valve stems or the valves themselves to make sure that they are tight. replace any stem caps that are missing.
The "Check Tire Pressure" message can come on due to tire wear, even though your tire pressure is fine. Bring up the message and then hold the reset button until the tire pressure restes to normal.
1. check and make sure that your tires are inflated to the correct pressure
2. turn the ignition switch to the ON position. If the low tire
pressure warning light comes on, push and hold the tire pressure
warning reset switch (think the switch is in the glovebox, but not sure) until the warning light turns
off and then release the switch.
3. now press and hold the tire pressure warning reset switch until the low tire pressure warning light blinks three times.
Look for a sticker on the drivers door panel. It will tell you what pressure to set for the tires. The owners manual may also contain this information. It is normal for a radial tire to look a little flat.
Take it back to them, they will deflate it, paint a compound on the rim areas, then re-inflate it.
If you remove the tyre yourself, and immerse it in water up over the rim, you can mark the area if it bubbles.
You can self-fix by using impact adhesive on the rim - when tyre is fully deflated on this area.
Tyre rubber compounds are soft in this area and should conform to seal within a month or so, but sometimes don't make it.
The other reason is that rust or a crack may be evident.
