A liitle Durametric help here, please!

I got the Enthusiastic cable to diagnose a TPMS issue. I found that one of my Tire sensors had Zero (0) life left. So I ordered a Beru to replace it and had the tire shop change it.

I was expecting the TPMS to learn on my way home (after resetting the TPMS) however it didn't.

So I hook up the cable again and find that all the tire sensors read Zero (0) months left of life. Now we do have a bit of a cold snap after my first reading.

Could all of the other three sensors have gone from having 24+ months left to Zero months left in two weeks? Could the cold actually kill the remaining life. I'm skeptical.

Just looking for some input. (I'm considering upgrading the cable to Pro just to delete the TPMS, seems more trouble than its worth)

TIA
CAM

It look like the problem is with the central sensor unit.

I just returned the one I purchased. In my opinion it is not as advertised and the tech support is worthless - it's like they hired that smug a$$hole who used to hang out in the High School computer lab for customer service.

I haven't done this myself, so take it for what it's worth... someone mentioned they were able to get a reset by unplugging the TPMS controller unit, wait a minute, then plugging back. You can get to the controller unit following my write-up here:

G'luck!
