DB9 tyre system fault

[Andrew Bristow]

I changed the tyres on my 2010 DB9 Volante, two months after the new tyres were fitter TYRE SYSTEM FAULT appeared on the screen. Is this a fault with the main controller or an individual tyre valve? Can anyone help me as the warning overrides the speed data

Had same fault on my 2010 Vantage after I had the wheels refurbed and two new tyres fitted

This was done via the dealer I bought the car from so I took it back and they were unable to get it working again, my scenario a little different I they fitted new sensors and they arent / weren't compatable with the smart tyre system, they spent a good few hours on it and were unable to get it working

In the end i had a bypass cable fitted which stopped the fault occurring on the dash, but does disable the TPMS system as no matter what the technicians did they could not get the sensors to talk to the smart tyre system.

To clear the fault and get the speed data back on your dash, if press the "read" button it will clear the fault, but you will need to do that each time you start the car.

I have developed a very good knowledge of these sensors and the logic; if needed let me know here and I can link you the relevant threads.

Many people here recommend buying tpms delete kit which is really cheap and easy to install and can be undone just as easily

I am sure the above could also help you find the right sensors for your car.
