In any case air strut replacement is an easy job. Changed both fronts in the last year. No coding involved
In some errors (I think when both EHC & ABS complain) you get not only an SLS dash warning but also a yellow TPMS error.
Ie. I had height errors in my EHC for 2 sensors and 1 error in ABS for implausible height. (And remember our TPMS works off of ABS speed sensors)

The TPMS is not experiencing a fault, just for some stupid I-Bus reason, it comes on
It overrides any actual TPMS reset/use until the EHC issue is fixed.

That one drove me up a wall until I recently fixed mine.

Now a red TPMS, different story. That's a TPMS fault.
