Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure
Warning
Should this occur, you should stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tires with low pres
-
sure (those in a different color in the instru
-
ment cluster graphic) to the vehicle’s
recommended cold placard pressure value as
shown in the "Inflate to XX" message. Once
the system receives the updated tire pres
-
sures, the system will automatically update,
the pressure values in the graphic display in
the instrument cluster will return to their
original color, and the TPMS Warning Light
will turn off.
NOTE:
When filling warm tires, the tire pressure
may need to be increased up to an additional
4 psi (28 kPa) above the recommended cold
placard pressure in order to turn the TPMS
Warning Light off.
The vehicle may need to be driven for up to
20
minutes above 15
mph (24
km/h) in
order for the TPMS to receive this informa
-
tion.
Service TPMS Warning
When a system fault is detected, the TPMS
Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds
and then remain on solid. The system fault will
also sound a chime. In addition, the instrument
cluster will display a "SERVICE TIRE PRESSURE
SYSTEM" message for a minimum of five seconds
and then display dashes (- -) in place of the pres
-
sure value to indicate which sensor is not being
received.
If the ignition is cycled, this sequence will
repeat, providing the system fault still exists.
If the system fault no longer exists, the
TPMS Warning Light will no longer flash, and
the “SERVICE TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM”
message will no longer display, and a pres
-
sure value will display in place of the dashes.
A system fault can occur due to any of the
following:
Jamming due to electronic devices or
driving next to facilities emitting the same
radio frequencies as the TPMS sensors.
Installing some form of aftermarket
window tinting that affects radio wave
signals.
Lots of snow or ice around the wheels or
wheel housings.
Using tire chains on the vehicle.
Using wheels/tires not equipped with
TPMS sensors.
Vehicles With Compact Spare or Non-Matching
Full Size Spare
1. The compact spare tire or non-matching
full size does not have a tire pressure
monitoring sensor. Therefore, the TPMS
will not monitor the pressure in the
compact spare tire.
2. After driving the vehicle for up to
20
minutes above 15
mph (24
km/h),
the TPMS Warning Light will flash on and
off for 75 seconds and then remain on
solid. In addition, the instrument cluster
will display a “Service Tire Pressure
