Please can anyone tell me how to reset the computer so no tyre fault comes up? I changed a flat tyre and there was a faulty monitoring valve that also need changing but the fault light still comes up on display. Mechanic has reset and diagnosed no error but light comes up. Display shows 3 tyre pressures but an arrow flashes on the one we replaced. Mechanic has checked and all tyres,monitoring and pressures are ok. No errors on diagnostics machine. Pls advise. Thanks George

just a quick question...are u a Galaxy expert or are u just like me ..just browsing? Whats a global Mod?..do u work for this site?

No they're fine. The display shows the tyre pressure values but when I start the car the warning light comes up saying "tyre pressure monitoring malfunction" The pressures have been recognised but the monitoring part is malfunctioning..ie the bit where if the pressure drops , a message should come up. It definitely worked before as I remember 3 months ago the message came up to say " front left tyre low pressure" and I pumped it up to 30 psi and the message went.

Thanks for your reply. I have told them and they said they will fix when I bring it in on Friday. Lets just see...do you think they damaged the monitoring system when they replaced the pads?...would this affect it?

To all, I wonder if anyone can help me. I have a 2.0 Tdi Galaxy Ghia - X --57 plate I have had my brake pads replaced by my local mechanic and now on the system computer a warning light saying TPMS malfunction. The tyre pressures are shown in the tyre menu but the Tyre Pressure monitoring Malfunction warning light comes up when I start the car. Then goes off ..but the amber ! stays om Is there a way of resetting this after the brake pads were replaced? Is there a problem with the valves/sensor? Is the garage liable to fix them if they damaged them? Pls advise Thanks George

I wonder if anyone knows where I can get the latest Sat nav map update CD for my 57 plate Galaxy. The prblem I have is the maps do not come up sometimes only at 1 km scale...at 200m its just a pointer with no maps. Its been fine all this time with no issues...everything else on the computer system is fine. Do I need a PCM update? Can i do it from a cd? I have no DVD player..I think its the Blaupunck Sat Nav 2007 type If I have to go to Ford dealer, how much is it? Also will the update solve my problem? Does the update upgrade all the computer firmware? Pls can anyone advise me. I live in North London N14..is there a reliable dealer that won't rip me off!!!! Ta George
