Service TPMS Warning
When a system fault is detected, the “Tire Pressure

Monitoring Telltale Light” will flash on and off for 75

seconds and then remain on solid. The system fault will

also sound a chime. If the ignition is cycled, this sequence

will repeat, providing the system fault still exists. The

“Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” will turn off

when the fault condition no longer exists. A system fault

can occur due to any of the following:
1. Jamming due to electronic devices or driving next to

facilities emitting the same radio frequencies as the

TPMS sensors.

2. Installing some form of aftermarket window tinting

that affects radio wave signals.

3. Lots of snow or ice around the wheels or wheel

housings.

4. Using tire chains on the vehicle.

5. 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 spare

tire does not have a tire pressure monitoring sensor.

Therefore, the TPMS will not monitor the pressure in

the spare tire.

2. If you install the compact or non-matching full size

spare tire in place of a road tire that has a pressure

below the low-pressure warning limit, a chime will

sound and the “TPMS Telltale Light” and “LOW TIRE

PRESSURE” and ЉInflate to XXЉ messages will turn on

upon the next ignition cycle.

3. After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above

15 mph (24 km/h), the “TPMS Telltale Light” will

flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on

solid.
