DTC C2121/21: No Signal from Transmitter ID1; DTC C2122/22: No Signal from Transmitter ID2; DTC C2123/23: No Signal from Transmitter ID3; DTC C2124/24: No Signal from Transmitter ID4; DTC C2125/25: No Signal from Transmitter ID5; DTC C2181/81: Transmitter ID1 not Received (Test Mode DTC); DTC C2182/82: Transmitter ID2 not Received (Test Mode DTC); DTC C2183/83: Transmitter ID3 not Received (Test Mode DTC); DTC C2184/84: Transmitter ID4 not Received (Test Mode DTC); DTC C2185/85: Transmitter ID5 not Received (Test Mode DTC) [09/2015 - ]: Description

The tire pressure warning valve and transmitters that are installed in the tire and wheel assemblies measure the tire pressures. The measured values are transmitted as radio waves to the tire pressure warning antenna and then set to the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver. The ECU compares the measured air pressure values with the air pressure threshold. When the measured air pressure value is less than this threshold, the warning light in the combination meter illuminates.

The tire pressure warning valve and transmitters constantly send radio waves to the tire pressure warning antenna.

Under the conditions below, the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver is unable to receive the signals from the tire pressure warning valve and transmitters, and a DTC is stored.

HINT: 

When no transmitter ID is received from a tire pressure warning valve and transmitter for a total of 20 minutes*1 (10 minutes*2) while the vehicle speed is more than 37 km/h (23 mph), or no transmitter ID is received from all the tire pressure warning valve and transmitters for a total of 20 minutes*1 (10 minutes*2), these DTCs are stored.

DTCs from C2121/21 to C2125/25 can only be cleared by using the Techstream. DTCs from C2181/81 to C2185/85 can be cleared when the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter sends a forced transmission signal or test mode ends. DTCs from C2181/81 to C2185/85 are output only in test mode.

  • Any transmitter ID is not received from tire pressure warning valve and transmitters.
  • For 20 minutes*1 (10 minutes*2) or more, vehicle speed is more than 37 km/h (23 mph) or no vehicle speed signal is received.

(b) When both conditions below are met:
  • Tire pressure warning valve and transmitter is not in stop mode.
  • No transmitter ID is received from tire pressure warning valve and transmitters for 20 minutes*1 (10 minutes*2) or more.
  • Tire pressure warning valve and transmitter

Test mode procedure is performed.
  • Tire pressure warning valve and transmitter
  • Tire pressure warning antenna (for Roof Side)
  • Tire pressure warning antenna (for Front Side)*2
  • Harness or connector
  • Tire pressure warning ECU and receiver

HINT: 

It is necessary to perform the following procedure to identify the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter that is malfunctioning because it cannot be identified by the output DTC.
