red tyre pressure light
how do you reset the red light?
every time i press the button with the tyre symbol on (left of sport button) the red dash indication goes out but lights back up several minutes later.... idiot guide to keeping the red light out would be great. |

Hold tyre pressure reset button down until the symbol on the dash turn from red to orange, let go of button - drive off and it'll reset. |

Take the car up to over 35 miles - put into neutral and hold back both +ve and -ve paddles on the steering wheel for about 10 seconds (there won't be a feedback or light to tell you it's done) - let go of both paddles and put car back into gear - done. It's in the handbook - should be done if you've changed tyres. |

I wouldn't know Tom as I don't have the GT1... just a pikey Snap-On ETHOS.

My steering wheel is also cocked to one side... I hear it could be rear road trailing arm bushes? Anyway, I'll book her in soon and will let you know...

Hello guys,
Quite right in saying that the pressure sensors are the most likely cause of these warning lights coming on. There are 2 sensors on the master cylinder. As quoted below the only way to tell which one is causing the problem is to use a diagnostics and disconnect a sensor to see which fault code shows as currently present. will either list them as 'Pressure sensor 1' or 'Pressure sensor 2', Or fault codes 5E20 & 5E21. The warning lights will come and go as the fault is present/not present. This differs from EML light for example, this will stay on unless the fault has not occured for 3 ignition cycles in which case it will then go out. Airbag light will stay on until faults are cleared by diagnostics. As for a steering wheel not straight, could be a number of things but its usually an issue with the front axle, not the rear. We look forward to seeing you down at Munich's to get it sorted. |

Update
Unplugged both my pressure sensor connectors and noticed a very small amount of fluid around them both. Decided to clean both for good measures although only one was showing as faulty, allowed to dry, plugged back in, cleared fault codes, test drove and haven't re-appeared (yet). Hopefully problem solved.
