The tire pressure monitor (TPM) system has a radio frequency (RF) transmitting pressure sensor in each wheel/tire assembly. The module receives and translates the data contained in the tire pressure sensor RF transmissions into sensor presence, sensor mode, and tire pressure.
The receiver module receives a radio frequency (RF) transmission from each tire pressure sensor. Each sensor RF transmission contains its own unique identification (ID) code that must be learned into the module memory. Once all 4 IDs have been learned, the module continuously compares IDs received in transmission to its learned IDs to determine if all 4 sensors are present.
The ignition is ON.
The tire pressure sensors stop transmitting signals.
The Tire Pressure Warning Light is illuminated.
A current DTC will clear when the signal transmission is resumed.
If the displayed tire pressure data did not change within 3 minutes, refer to DTC C2121-C2124 .
