TPMS System Description: Overview
The TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) continuously monitors all four tire pressure sensors and the system function whenever the vehicle is turned to the ON mode. If it detects low pressure in a tire, it alerts the driver by turning on the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator and the appropriate tire indicator. If it detects a problem in the system, it turns on the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator (starts blinking).
