TMPS/PS Light
Hello, and thank you for writing in. The power steering system, TPMS system, and the stability control are all connected. The problems do likely coincide. To start, consider any changes the TPMS system could have gone through (change of tires,...

I have a 2017 chevy Trax. I will be at a stop signs and a light comes on saying [engine](/topics-engine-chevy/) speeds are reduced. I then have to pull over turn my car off wait a few minutes and then I can turn my car back on and sometimes it'll go and other times it keeps that light stays on eventually it'll end up going I have the code tester read on it and they're saying that something with my air flow and for me to clean the sensors and air flow. My car also whenever it was low on gas it would do that or when I go and put gas in and fill it up when I first turn on the car it will not want to start or if it does start if I don't have my foot on the gas pedal giving it some power then it will die what is causing this since my boyfriend cleaned everything I haven't had very much problems with it going on and saying engine speeds are being reduced but I still had problems when I filled it up today once I'm on the road for a couple minutes then my vehicle will run fine Mechanic's Assistant: Just to clarify, what are the exact lights you're talking about? The check engine light came on a couple months ago when this first started. A warning light will come on saying engine speeds are being reduced when I lose power and that's when I have to pull over turn it off for a little bit and then normally it will turn back on anywhere from 2 to 3 minutes after I let it sit for a little bit Mechanic's Assistant: Are you fixing your Trax yourself? What have you tried so far? Yes my boyfriend's been looking at it when I went and got the check engine light test done at AutoZone 12 different codes popped up. I have a picture of it if I can upload it to this maybe and you can see that but they were telling me it had to do with the airflow system and what I was told to do is for us to clean the sensors , and to clean out the I forgot it's called mass airflow I'd have to look it up on the paper I'm sorry I'll do that here in a second so he cleaned that out and he cleaned the sensors and then we changed the air filter and it was running good until I got gas. Mechanic's Assistant: Anything else you want the Mechanic to know before I connect you? I don't think so sorry I'm having a hard time explaining it
