TPMS question — Constant light

F13 M6 here. TPMS malfunction light came on. Im seeing all 4 wheels as yellow. When I try to go to reset tpms its greyed out and I can do anything. This happend on a long road trip.

The car is a Canadian model, so wanna check with you guys for tpms details. I had coded the car with carly and I think I attempted to add the temp and psi readings to the car. Then later on a road trip, the light came on. I had been driving for some time, but i have not ever seen temp and psi displays previously. Also never had any tpms lights appear.

I have scanned with ista, protool, and carly. No tpms error there, but the car displays the light and in vehicle status it informs of a low tire. Again it wont let me reset it. The tires are adequately filled.

Also oddly enough, my valve stems arent metal they are rubber. Do Canadian models have tpms??? I cant find the RDC unit listed in the list of control units for the vehicle….????

Im going to start with coding those features off. ( temp and psi for tires / display). Im going to be doing some other services soon. So would like to handle this while that is happening. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Canadian modes don't come with TPMS so you coded the car for something you done have

I tried doing the shut off tpms coding in the khombi and light still came back. Ill check into the coding more this week. Hopefully, I get this sorted.

Okay I will try coding it out tomorrow. Thanks for the suggestions. Do you have any advice in which things to code off on carly or protool.

So I coded off the tpms settings in the khombi and in another module. The FTM works, so does the tpms. The reset button was no longer greyed out. I reset it and all good. So for anyone reading this. Make sure you check coding carefully before doing it.
