I just double-checked my invoice and confirmed that I have the right sensors. Maybe it is time to have it checked. Odd thing is that it had no issues reading the OEMs.

if I pull the #70 fuse will that turn off the messages until I can get 4 new sensors installed??

This is hard reset of TPMS control module. Then do the instrument cluster reset, drive a dozen miles or so till the tire info shows or the inop message re-appears. You MAY need to do the instrument cluster reset a few times in order for the control module to poll all four wheels sequentially within the window the control unit allows before throwing a code and shutting down. Eventually it should work as info gained from each wheel is retained ( serial number of sensor, battery voltage, temp and pressure ) before the unit polls the next wheel.


Just did this on my '06 last week.


PS...make sure you are starting with the recommended pressures, check fuel fill door for pressures, mine are 29 front 32 rear.
Is there a way to disable the warnings? I have an 05 S500 and I don't want to get into buying new sensors. I don't drive it much and I monitor my pressure closely.

One thing i forgot to mention in my original posting was that another wheel shop had ordered the OEM Huff brand sensors and the system registered a few minutes later with no issues at all. The problem I did have was that the stems were leaking air very slowly and the shop was not able to correct it. They gave me a great price on the OEMs and I really wished they would have worked. With the Titans, air is tight and they fit nicely, however they are not registering as feasibly as the OEMs did. At this point, basing it on my struggles and from reading other posts, it appears that the Titan sensors are not as solid as the OEM's. To be fair, I don't know how they compare to other aftermarket sensors. I may have to consider just eating the cost of the Titans and look at purchasing OEMs again. Hopefully the next set will work.

To confirm, is the circled fuse on the image below fuse #70?

Thanks again
I know this is a really old post but this #70 fuse is in the back seat.
im having issues like you had but my is a 2011 c300, could you kinda give me an idea where this fuse might be on my car. Thanks
