Error codes for all 4 TPMS electronics

kyippee · 11-30-2017, 02:53 AM

Got a new set of wheels and had a local shop order & install new TPMS sensors and new tires on the wheels.

Noticed during a trip to LA that "TPM malfunction" errors would pop after about 30-45 minutes of driving. It would go away and show TPMS active/o.k. after another 30-45 minutes or shutting off my car. Already did a TPMS initialization several times when it was active.

I pulled codes and got errors for all 4 sensors:
Tire pressure control / Reifendruck Kontrolle:
- Fault: Mistake wheel electronics FL
- Code: 006054
- Fault: FR mistake wheel electronics
- Code: 006055
- Fault: Mistake wheel electronics RL
- Code: 006056
- Fault: Mistake wheel electronics RR
- Code: 006057

I am thinking it could be bad sensors / incorrect sensors for my 2011 LCI M3.. OR it could be the central antenna in the car needing replacement.

If they are incorrect sensors (pre-LCI) is this how they'd behave? I've swapped on a known good set of wheels that didn't have this problem before. Drove 45 minutes to test and didn't get the error so far. Will keep driving more to see if it happens.

Following up. Swapped wheels to other known good sets - my ZCP wheels and Titan 7 wheels and no errors on long drives. Swapped back to TE37 SL with the new sensors and same problem happened. If anybody has a similar issue, it may be a bad batch on sensors. Odd thing is the error pops consistently at 30-45 minutes after starting driving, not immediately. Sensors read fine with correct frequency for my 2011 when tested at a wheel/tire shop. Getting them replaced.
