i havent started my car in about 5 weeks, and i recently tried to start it but the battery had died. so i hooked it up over the weekend on a 2 amp charge rate and i got back and the charger said the battery was full. so i start the car and let it run, but while it was in idle, i had not pushed any of the buttons and the DSC off, traction control off, and another symbol that i do not know what it is but it looks like a tire with an exclamation point (!) in the middle of it. these were illuminated. is this a problem or is everything ok?? my DSC off light was actually blinking at a steady rate, not fast or slow...

any thoughts? i get my license back in october and i want my car to be ready to go, the last thing i want is to have to take it to the dealership and leave it for another few days haha.

 

the DSC reset itself, turn the wheel lock to lock to give it a reference point, then that light will go off. the exclamation light is your TPMS. so adjust your tire pressure.

 

Read The ******* Manual will ya' ?

IF you dont have one, how hard is it to RTFM Online?

 

ok thanks. i was worried that something screwed up with my car haha. i thought it might be mad at me for not driving it for a while. if it wont be driven until late october, is there anything i need to do to make sure nothing screws up?

 

i wish i could read the manual, but my glove box will not open haha. the lock is stripped i think because the master key turns over and over in the keyhole but it doesnt work when i lift the handle. i need to take it to mazda and get it fixed but im lazy haha. i didnt know they had an online manual either, but i knew i could get good advice and legit information from people on here.

can someone give me the link to the online manual or tell me what my tire pressure should be? isnt it like 28 or something? i dunno haha i should probably pay more attention to my tire pressure.

 

Fine

Link to the online manual : Mazdausa.com , click Owners, then follow instructions

Tire pressure should be around 32 psi (OEM 18" inch 225/45R18), but I keep mine at around 33psi. Warning goes off if its equal or lower than 27psi or equal or higher than 36 or 37
