Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Circuit/System Verification
Low tire pressure in one or more tires is indicated by a continuously illuminated tire pressure monitor indicator icon after the instrument cluster bulb check is completed. If equipped with a driver information center, a check tire pressure type message will also be displayed.
When a tire pressure monitor DTC is set, the tire pressure monitor indicator icon will flash for 1 min after the instrument cluster bulb check is completed and then remains illuminated. If equipped with a driver information center, a service tire monitor type message will also be displayed.
- Adjust all tire pressures to the correct pressure. Refer to Vehicle Certification, Tire Placard, Anti-Theft, and Service Parts ID Label .
- Drive the vehicle over 40 km/h (25 mph) for greater than 2 min.
- Verify the low tire pressure indicator is OFF.
- If the low tire pressure indicator is ONΒ
- Perform the Tire Pressure Indicator Sensor LearnΒ .
- Record all 4 Tire Pressure Parameters values from the scan tool.
- Check and record the tire pressures with a known accurate hand held tire pressure gauge.
- Verify that the scan tool Tire Pressure parameters do not differ more than 27.6 kPa (4 psi) from the actual tire pressure readings.
- If the scan tool Tire Pressure parameters differ more than 27.6 kPa (4 psi), replace the appropriate B2 Tire Pressure Sensor then perform the Tire Pressure Indicator Sensor LearnΒ .
- Go to next step: If the scan tool Tire Pressure parameters do not differ more than 27.6 kPa (4 psi)
- Verify the BCM Tire Type and Pressure selections are setup correctly with a scan tool. Refer to the Vehicle Certification, Tire Placard, Anti-Theft, and Service Parts ID Label
.
- If the BCM Tire Type and Pressure selections are incorrect, input the proper placard values for the vehicle with the scan tool then drive the vehicle over 40 km/h (25 mph) for greater than 2 min.
- Go to next step: If the BCM Tire Type and Pressure selections are correct
- Ignition On/Vehicle in Service Mode..
- Verify the low tire pressure monitor indicator icon turns ON and OFF when commanding All Indicators ON and OFF with a scan tool.
- If the low tire pressure monitor icon does not turn ON and OFF, replace the P16 Instrument Cluster.
- Go to next step: If the low tire pressure monitor icon turns ON and OFF
- All OK
- Go to next step: If the tire pressure indicator is OFFΒ
- All OK
