TPMS Reminder Reset - Procedure 17: Notes
NOTE:
When a spare tire is mounted, a wheel is replaced or rotated, or tire pressure has been adjusted, TPM system will need to be recalibrated.
NOTE:
When the low tire pressure warning messages appear, immediately check air pressure of all tires and adjust to the specified pressure. If warning messages are still displayed, there is a malfunction in the TPM system. See appropriate manufacturer service information.
NOTE:
Under the following conditions, the system may not function properly:
- More than one tire is low.
- Only one tire is replaced with a new tire during service.
- Vehicle is moving faster than 65 mph (105 km/h).
- The system is not yet calibrated.
- Tire treadwear is uneven.
- Compact spare tire is installed.
- Tire chains are being used.
- Vehicle is being driven on a rough or frozen road.
- If ABS warning light is on.
CAUTION:
DO NOT recalibrate TPM system until all problems are fixed and tire pressure in all 4 tires has been adjusted. If recalibration is done when tire pressures are incorrect, TPM system will not work properly and may not set an alert when a tire pressure is low or high.
NOTE:
There are 2 ways to recalibrate the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) system:
- Using DIC Reset Button (if no scan tool is available)
- Using Scan Tool (if an OBD-II compatible scan tool is available).
