I will call my Indie today.

Yeah that's all I found too. A lot of the advise on sensor trouble shooting is determining a grounded wire from worn insulation, moisture or corrosion and of course a faulty/worn out unit.

You could go to the dealer get a new Real OEM says you have 2 solenoid valves. Install them see if they makes a change. $ pricey $180 each . Maybe a dealer diagnosis would be cheaper.

You're gonna have to spend some money to determine the cause.

Call your dealer and ask what they charge to trouble shoot your codes. mine charges around 1.5 hrs to trouble shoot codes and check over car.
