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.
Critical And Non-Critical Pressure Alerts
A critical alert will be triggered when a tire pressure has gone below or above a set threshold pressure. Depending on what the condition is, the EVIC will request a chime and then display a LOW PRESSURE or HIGH PRESSURE message indicating the appropriate location.
The alert message will display for three seconds and then switch to the tire pressure trip screen. The tire pressure for the tire that has exceeded its threshold will blink at one second intervals on the graphic display. The blinking pressure will continue for the rest of the ignition cycle or until an EVIC button is pressed. If the display is removed without correcting the condition, it will reappear without a chime after 60 seconds to warn the drive of the low/high pressure condition.
A non-critical alert will be triggered when low or high pressure threshold has been exceeded in the spare tire. The "SPARE LOW PRESSURE" or "SPARE HIGH PRESSURE" alert will be displayed for 60 seconds during each ignition ON cycle. If the pressure threshold is exceeded while the ignition is OFF, the alert will be delayed 8-10 seconds after ignition ON.
