Default Resetting tire pressure sensors

Does anyone know if there is a way to put the computer in learn mode to rest the tire pressure sensors without going back to the dealer and using the DRB computer? Most other Chryslers and Jeeps provide a way to enter the "learn" mode, however I cannot find any such procedure for my '04 Crossfire. I have the donut magnet, just don't have the directions.

Default tire pressure sensors

Hey,
I have some type of failure with my TPM system too.
All tires are properly inflated but it threw a TPM light that
didn't clear even after 5 key cycles.
Anyone have a trouble shoot guide/reset info for this??

Thanks,
DB

Tonight, me too. Low tire pressure light. Proper inflation. Also, immediately after starting car, the wrench lights in the dash with the number 7. Are they related?

Ok, to get the stupid stuff out of the way first. I never waited for the computer to tell me when to change the oil before. I understood the wrench icon for that, but the number threw me. Now that I'm home I've read the owners manual and understand it's "days to service" That eliminates that issue. Having both the wrench and the low tire pressure issue at the same time threw me.
On to the Tire pressure monitoring problem. I have the Service manual. After reading that, I understand why the DRBIII. It will tell the service person WHICH sensor is bad, when it ISN'T a tire pressure problem, or if it's the receiver in the car. It could also be a LOW BATTERY in the sensor. Only the DRBIII can diagnose problems with the system. It could be a BAD SENSOR, and the DRB will tell WHICH tire. It could be the receiver in the car. And for real grins, it could be that the battery needs replacing in the sensor inside the tire. In this case, the tire bead has to be broken and the sensor replaced. Whether it's bad, of just the battery doesn't matter. The battery is not replaceable according to the service manual. So, when I have time it's off to the dealer.

So, if you mount wheels w/o the sensors the receiver gets no signal and the light comes on? Has anyone ever posted a picture of the sensors? And, finally, any idea what a new one will cost when it dies?

The sensor is about $47 (USD) online.
