This article discusses the importance of TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) and the troubleshooting process for malfunctioning TPMS sensors. It highlights various issues that can cause the TPMS light to remain on, such as dead batteries, faulty sensors, blocked signals, or electronic faults. The article suggests replacing all four sensors at once if one sensor is failing, and provides a "test before touch" method for identifying faulty sensors. It also mentions potential causes of sensor failure, such as structural damage from hitting a pothole or curb. The article advises checking for improper programming or the need for a relearn if all sensors appear to be functioning fine. It cautions against interference from cell phones or other sensors during the relearn process and suggests checking the antenna wiring and voltage supply if the TPMS module is not working correctly. Finally, it recommends consulting the OEM service information and Technical Service Bulletins for specific vehicle repair procedures. [Extracted from the article] |
