2006 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE TPMS reset

Tires may also cause the vehicle to pull left or right.
Alignment will not correct this problem. See your autho-
rized dealer for proper diagnosis.
Improper alignment will not cause vehicle vibration.
Vibration may be a result of tire and wheel out-of-
balance. Proper balancing will reduce vibration and
avoid tire cupping and spotty wear.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM (TPMS)
Base System
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) uses wireless
technology with wheel rim mounted electronic sensors to
monitor tire pressure levels. Sensors, mounted to each
wheel as part of the valve stem, transmit tire pressure
readings to the Receiver Module.
NOTE:It is particularly important, for you to check the
tire pressure in all of your tires regularly and to maintain
the proper pressure.The“Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light”will
illuminate in the instrument cluster, and an au-
dible chime will be activated when one or more
tire pressures is low. The“Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light”will flash on and off for 10 to 60 seconds
when a system fault is detected. The flash cycle will
repeat every ten minutes or until the fault condition is
removed and reset.
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) consists of the
following components:•Receiver Module
•5 Wheel Sensors (including Full Size Spare Tire)
•Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light

when a system fault is detected. The flash cycle will
repeat every ten minutes or until the fault condition is
removed and reset.
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) consists of the
following components:
•Receiver Module
•5 Wheel Sensors (including Full Size Spare Tire)
•4 Wheel Sensor Trigger Modules
•Tire Pressure Monitoring System Display Messages in
the EVIC
•Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale LightThe system consists of tire pressure monitoring sensors
attached to each wheel through the valve stem mounting
hole, a central receiver module, Wheel Sensor Trigger
Modules mounted in three of the four wheel wells,
various Tire Pressure Monitoring System Display Mes-
sages in the EVIC, and a“Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light.”A sensor shall be installed in the spare
wheel if the vehicle is equipped with a matching full size
spare wheel and tire assembly.
NOTE:For vehicles with optional wheel/tire sizes and
significantly different tire placard pressures, the placard
pressure value and the low-pressure threshold value is
re-programmable at your authorized dealer to accommo-
date the customer selected wheel/tire combinations rec-
ommended by DaimlerChrysler Corporation.

The followingwarningswill cause a text message to be
displayed, an audible chime to sound and the“Ti re
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light”to illuminate. The
audible chime will occur once every ignition cycle for
eachwarningdetected. The“Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light”will illuminate continuously (solid) and
shall remain illuminated until the warning condition is
removed/reset.
NOTE:The“Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light”
will only illuminate for the four active road tires. A low
spare tire pressure will not cause the“Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light”to illuminate
When the appropriate conditions exist, the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) displays the following
messages.LEFT FRONT, LEFT REAR, RIGHT FRONT,
RIGHT REAR, SPARE LOW PRESSURE
One or more of these messages will be displayed in the
EVIC if a low tire pressure condition exists in one or more
tires.
Inspect all tires for proper inflation pressure, once the
proper tire pressure has been set, the TPMS will reset
automatically when the vehicle has been driven for at
least 2 minutes at or above 15 mph (24 km/h).
CHECK TPM SYSTEM
See your authorized dealer when this message appears in
the EVIC. This message indicates that a system fault
condition has been detected.
