Since my OBDII scanner would not show a code, I went step by step. Did the disconnect/reconnect 3 times of the connector behind the kick panel. No luck. Did the same thing with the connector under the driver seat. Still no luck. Took off the rock shield under the bumper and removed both sensors. The RF sensor had split open from internal corrosion. The other sensor looked just fine. Found the part at rockauto for $54

Was hoping to post a picture of the corroded sensor, but apparently i don't have enough posts to qualify for doing that.
As info, i did not disconnect the battery, but did remove the SIR 15a fuse from under the hood, before each procedure.
Thanks to you all, i am good to go again!
Av now has 148K on it and hoping to get the '13 before they're gone.

When I turn the wheel all the way to the left the message goes off, as soon as I give 1/4 turn the ligth goes on and the volumen control on the wheel wont work, then I turn the wheel left again and the message goes of and the volumen control works fine.
Any idea?
Thanks
