Run flat monitor on...NOT BLINKING...ON

I have a monitor ON
I have had it blinking before and know how to reset.

It now is on solid and I can't reset it...

No flats, and everything seems OK.


Any help ???

You do know you have to drive it a bit to reset? Assuming that, per the manual ...

Blinking means its a flat.

On solid means its malfunctioning, take it to the dealer

bpago,
I have had my monitor come on twice now. Each time was because of excessive wheel spin. Not a mechanical fault or a flat. If you press and hold the reset button, next to the e-brake handle and drive the car for 5 minutes, your light should extinguish itself. Not that you have to press and hold the button while driving , once you press it and hold it, you can then let go of it

I hope that helps.

PS chows4us, how are your 2 chow chows? We chow and MCS owners have to stick together Too bad we are both so far from one another, I bet my chow chow would love to meet some other MINI lovin' chows also
