Warning Light

[ryandman89]

So today I was driving along and I passed over the railroad tracks fairly hard, expecting my Z71 to handle it well. As soon as I hit the bump on the other side of the tracks I get a warning light that says "service tire monitor system" with a flashing exclamation point. I assume that this means I did something to the tire pressure sensor because when I check the pressure in the DIC system all of the tires show 35 psi but the back left one has a dash in the box. So my question is...Did I mess up the tire pressure sensor? and what should I do about it?

 

Oh and I drive a 2007 Z71 Silverado.

 

Thanks for the help!

Sounds to me like the left rear one bit the dust. Should be covered under warranty.

I have had mine a year already and hit some pretty nasty bumps, potholes and RR tracks

where I live and not one peep from the TPMS. All is still OK.

Yea I'm gonna take it in. I just can't beleive it broke that easily. I hit bumps the same size everyday and nothing like this has ever happened before.
