DIY: Enable the Tire Pressure Menu

bugers

Amazing discovery! Thanks for sharing.

Unfortunately, I did try this modification on my euro version of 370z and menu "Tyre Pressure" showed up but no readings. I was driving my car for 30km and all of them are still showing "**"
Do you think that changing type 3 "(X61A type)" to something else is a solution?
Do you know other possible options and what they mean?

Can you post or PM me your xrcnf 2 / configuration file?
I'll reconfigure my unit and see if I get the same behaviour.

Also, the next time you are connected to the navigtion unit, please type"
verall

and post / PM that as well.

I person just commented on my YT video that it worked for his UK 370, so I'm not sure what is going on.

Before you did the re-configuration, was the TPMS light on?
I'm wondering if the BCM is programmed for them and if they still function.

No. I have seen this light only when there was a pressure difference between wheels like 0.4 bar. Last was like 6 months ago.
Isn't TPMS light shown always when any of the sensor dies?

In UK they have a steering wheel on the right side so I'm wondering if they have different configuration of the unit?

MotorvateDIY

Correct, if a tire is low or if a TPMS sensor dies, the TPMS light will turn on.

I'm not sure on what the differences are between the North American and Europe version of the nav system as I've never seen the version for Europe.

I would think that they would share a common "core" of code and the other differences would be for languages, radio frequencies, DAB (digital audio broadcasting - Europe Only) and lack of XM (satellite - North America only) radio.


What year is your 370?

On my test bench with the North American version of the NAV unit, any other TPMS setting didn't do anything, no new menus or anything else.
