On 2007 Chrysler Pacifica - When the car is started, the alarm sounds and the service tire system soon light flashes 8 or 9 times and then remains on. Do I have worn out batteries in the sensors or ??? And if the batteries need to be replaced, where do I buy the parts and are there any surprises awaiting me? (I live in Canada so Canadian Tire, NAPA and Walmart are options - unless you include the expensive dealership as a source for parts)

Start with making sure the tires have correct air pressure in each tire, then go from there.The alarm is a warning there is an issue with your tires. Low air can set it off or an imbalance. If the treads are worn due to alot of mileage, check those. Tire blowouts are no fun and can cause a serious accident or damage to your vehicle like bent rims. Tires are sometimes 'weighted' when rotated. There may be uneven wear if they do not get rotated per tire manufacturer's recommendation.

Make sure that your tire pressure sensors were not damaged. one simple way to check what tire sensor is causing the problem is to lower each tire individually and check to see if the message displays to a different tire or more than 1, depending on the TPM system your pacifica has. Chrysler has a TPM (tire pressure monitor) tester which can check each individual sensor for correct operation. and the sensor's batteries have typically a 5-7 year life span.

If all the sensors retrained, you either still have low tire pressure, or the computer which reads the sensors needs to be reprogrammed with a different tire pressure threshold.

there should be a tire reset button either inside the cars fuse box or under the hood in one of those fuse boxes

This is likely a mileage triggered warning. If you have good tires already, a rented scanner will allow you to reset the mileage goal and clear the message. Alternatively, go back to where you bought the tires and see if they will erase the warning.

2007 Chrysler Pacifica. The service immobilizer light came on and car won't start. The car won't start at all due to this?

Question edited to add some real sentences.
Question moved to model category.

Not sure what you mean you "got a key programmed already". The key and the vehicle need programming together at the same time using a professional grade scan tool computer.

You need to reset the immobilizer and security system. There are details here. Do you have a voltmeter? If the battery is below 11 volts, the security systems will fail. If the ideas here don't work, you need an auto electrician or an auto locksmith to diagnose and fix. Looking at the wires on the PCM won't help much. The PCM is the Powertrain Control Module, your antitheft and immobilizer is a joint effort between Body Control Module, Engine Control Module and Antitheft Security Module.

New tires and rims were installed on my 2005 Pacifica and now the service tire system soon, light is on. Why?

This particular car has the tire pressure monitoring system on it with sensors in the wheels. If the sensor was messed up when it was reenstalled on the new rim it would throw this code. Some vehicles have the sensors with specific mount locations and if one of the sensors was reenstalled in the wrong location it could cause this fault. You can take it to the dealer and have them check the sensors and see if all are reading properly and are in the right locations.

2004 Pacifica

Check air pressure in all tires sometimes 2 pounds of pressure difference will set it off and sometimes it takes 8 pounds. If a sensor goes out and you know which one it is pick up a new sensor at Advanced auto for 42 dollars and put it together with the one screw and go to Walmart and they will install it for 10 dollars.The sensors have batteries in them and they only last so long if it has been over five years and one goes out replace them all. The car will learn the new sensors in a few miles so just drive until the light goes out12_2_2011_4_02_28_pm.gif
