So my low pressure tire light came on earlier today, and I filled them up to 50 PSI and disconnected my ground wire to try to reset my sensor. Now my DSC light comes on and won't stop blinking. On top of that my traction control light won't go off. Plus my car wants to die every time I start it up. Please help?!!!

Thanks

soooo.... what led you to disconnect the ground wire for the sensor.....do you have a manual?

This might help: Turn steering clockwise fully then anticlockwise fully when key is positioned "ON".

Your car dying means something else is wrong somewhere

50 PSI is waaay to much. They should be at 32PSI front and rear.

+1 on turn the steering all the way to the right then all the way to the left to reset the steering angle sensor. This needs to be done each time you disconnect the battery.

Zoom44-I do not have a manual.

I tried the turning of the steering wheel. It worked!! But stupid tire pressure gauge light is still on!

Your car dying is probably the ECU trying to relearn a/f levels.

and also what others have already said. 50 is WAY too high

@OP Learn to read tire sidewall, 50 is pretty much over the max pressure limit of the average tire.

I will lower the PSI. I was told to put it to max PSI to help reset the sensor. Won't listen to that guy again. Thanks everyone for the help.

You should use the PSI recommended on the sticker on your drivers side door jam. It's 32 front and rear. The light goes on when it's below 28psi as well as above 35 I think...

Also go to www.finishlineperformance.com and buy yourself an owners manual to get to know the car.

j3$#3 fing Ch41$&. the light is still on because the tires arent at the right pressure. the way to "reset" the sensor is to se the correct tire pressure. the correct tire pressure is on a sticker on the door.

download a manual here http://www.mazdausa.com/MusaWeb/disp...earHome.action

read it.

dont disconnect any more wires in your car 'cause some guy said so. FFS!

So my air bag light came on. It flashes three times then stays on for the remainder of time I have my car on. The manual says that it requires dealership inspection. Is there anyway to get around that?

check the connectors under each seat. one could have come apart. after that if they are already connected- go to the dealer.

Coty Melancon

I will be sure to check that. I just hope I can avoid the dealer. Always manage to have something go wrong when I go there.
