This didn't start until after I did a vacuum pump delete. (Has battery out). When reinstalling battery, I arched out. So, I'm wondering if this could cause this.

Hi,

I know that to reset the TPMS system, it is important to maintain battery voltage to prevent issues. Do me a favor. Take a look at the directions I attached below for resetting the system. Let me know if you are comfortable performing what it explains.

Note that it indicates to keep a battery charger on while doing this because the key is on for a long time to perform the procedure. If you have a charger, make sure to do it. Also, let me know what you arced when installing the battery.

Let me know.
