message displays if a part on
the TPMS is not working properly.
The tire pressure light also flashes
and then remains on during the
same ignition cycle. SeeTire
Pressure Light on page 5‑23.
Several conditions may cause
this message to appear. See Tire
Pressure Monitor Operation on
page 10‑60 for more information.
If the warning comes on and stays
on, there may be a problem with
the TPMS. See your dealer.

On vehicles with the Tire Pressure
Monitor System (TPMS), this
message displays when the TPMS
is re-learning the tire positions on
your vehicle. The tire positions must
be re-learned after rotating the tires
or after replacing a tire or sensor.
See Tire Inspection on page 10‑64,

or RIGHT RR (right rear) to indicate
the location of the low tire. The low
