Other than the basic "did you check the tire pressure", and the "try reprogramming it (need the programming tool), I've heard that the battery life on the sensors is about 5 years. American Muscle has the tool and replacement sensors at a reasonable price.

My F150 had a problem with the tire pressure dummy light coming on even though all four tires were properly inflated. I fixed it with a small piece of black electrical tape.

Thanks guys.... got it figured out. After reset you must drive a few miles and it's good.

I was going to say last time I had the battery disconnected, I had the same fault show up, just drive around a few miles and it will correct itself.
