I was driving my MCS today when both the DSC and Flat tire lights came on.

I checked the tires and they were all at the specified PSI. Does anyone know how to reset these lights? I tried to "initilize" the Tire Monitoring System but that doesn't seem to work.

I had this problem as well.. apparently after reinitialzing the system, you need to drive for a mile.. few miles.. or so and it will go off. Mine eventualy went off as well.

There has also been alot of other talk here, and elswhere about this issue..
Heres one.. DSC+Run Flat

I reset the system and all seems well... looks like a common problem.

Yeah, just hold the reset button in for 5-6 seconds and will go out.

Well, When I had this happen--twice--it turned out to be the steering angle sensor was out of alignment. It was an in and out in the same day fix--you might wanna have the dealer check--thats what the warrenty is for right?
