Default Need some help

Drove my 06' C6 in the shop this morning,installed a battery relocation kit,took the wheels and tires off to gain access to the ride height adjusters,lowered the adjusters to the lowest setting put the care back together and now the tire monitoring system displays zero pressure and I can't get the car to go into competitive driving mode.I did weld a 3/8" bolt to the frame to serve as my new ground for the negative battery terminal.Any ideas?Anyone know of a good complete manual for this car preferably on disc?Thanks so much for any help.

i dont' have a c6.... nore have i done any of the above on my C5.. but i'm gonna take a stabe in the dark and say you have a bad ground somewhere.. Probably upfront. from the battery. My guess is your TPMS is pissed off because it's not working correctly because it's not grounded. I understand you've probably relocated the ground so in theory it should all be the same. I've seen wierd stuff happen to other cars after a relocation. Try moving the battery back.
