TW–42TIRE AND WHEEL – TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM
TW
DESCRIPTION
The tire pressure warning valve and transmitters that are installed in the tire and wheel assemblies
measure the air pressures of the tires. The measured values are transmitted to the tire pressure warning
antenna and receiver on the body as radio waves and then sent to the tire pressure warning ECU. The
ECU compares the measured air pressure values with the air pressure threshold. When the measured air
pressure value is less than this threshold, the warning light in the combination meter comes on. The tire
pressure warning ECU stores a DTC when the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter stops
transmitting signals. At this time, forcibly transmit the signals by releasing the tire pressure rapidly. The
stored DTC is cleared when the signal transmission is resumed.
HINT:
It is necessary to perform the procedure to identify the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter that is
malfunctioning because it cannot be identified by the output DTC.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
NOTICE:
It is necessary to perform initialization (See page TW-23) after registration (See page TW-20) of the
transmitter IDs into the tire pressure warning ECU after the ECU and/or valve and transmitter have
been replaced.
(a) Set the tire pressure to the specified value.
Cold tire inflation pressure
(b) Make sure that the ignition switch is off.
(c) Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
(d) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and turn the
tester on.

DESCRIPTION
The tire pressure warning valve and transmitters that are installed in the tire and wheel assemblies
measure the air pressure of the tires. The measured values are transmitted to the tire pressure warning
antenna and receiver on the body as radio waves and then sent to the tire pressure warning ECU. The
ECU compares the measured air pressure values with the air pressure threshold. When the measured air
pressure value is less than this threshold, the warning light in the combination meter comes on.
The tire pressure warning valve and transmitters constantly send radio waves to the tire pressure warning
antenna and receiver.
Under the following conditions below, the tire pressure warning antenna and receiver is unable to receive
the signals from the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters, and a DTC is stored.
• Facilities or devices that use similar radio frequencies are located in the vicinity of the vehicle.
• Devices using similar radio frequencies are used in the vehicle.
• The goods which obstruct the radio signal of the valve and transmitter, for example, tire chain or
window film.
HINT:
When no signals are received for 20 minutes or more, a DTC is output.
DTCs from C2121/21 to C2124/24 can only be cleared by using the tester. DTCs from C2181/81 to
C2184/84 can be cleared when the transmitter in the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter sends a
forced transmission signal or test mode ends. DTCs from C2181/81 to C2184/84 are output only in test
mode.
HINT:
It is necessary to perform the procedure to identify the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter that is
malfunctioning because it cannot be identified by the output DTC.

DESCRIPTION
The tire pressure warning valve and transmitters that are installed in the tire and wheel assemblies
measure the air pressure of the tires. The measured values are transmitted to the tire pressure warning
antenna and receiver on the body as radio waves and then sent to the tire pressure warning ECU. The
ECU compares the measured air pressure values with the air pressure threshold. When the measured air
pressure value is less than this threshold, the warning light in the combination meter comes on.
When the internal circuit of the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter is malfunctioning, this DTC is

DESCRIPTION
Each tire pressure warning valve and transmitter measures the internal temperature of its tire as well as
tire pressure, and transmits the information to the tire pressure warning ECU along with the transmitter ID.
If the measured temperature is out of the specified range, the tire pressure warning ECU recognizes it as
a malfunction, outputs DTCs, and illuminates the tire pressure warning light after blinking for 1 minute.
HINT:
It is necessary to perform the procedure to identify the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter that is
malfunctioning because it cannot be identified by the output DTC.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
NOTICE:
• When replacing the tire pressure warning ECU, read the IDs stored in the ECU using the
intelligent tester and note them down before removal.
• It is necessary to perform initialization (See page TW-23) after registration (See page TW-20) of
the transmitter IDs into the tire pressure warning ECU after the ECU and/or valve and
transmitter have been replaced.
(a) Check the tire is not flat, and there is no indication of air
pressure drop.

If a tire is damaged, the tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter may also have been damaged at the same
time.

If the ECU detects trouble, the tire pressure warning light blinks (comes on after blinking for 1 minute) and
tire pressure monitor is cancelled at the same time. At this time, the ECU records a DTC in the memory.
Connect terminals TC and CG of DLC3 to make the tire pressure warning light blink and output the DTC.
