Malfunctions
App lies to: ve hicles with tire press ure m onitoring system
If t he tire pressure monitoring system is not
available, the
m;i ind icat or light appears in the
in str ument cluster display along with th e mes
sage
Tire pressure: malfunction! See owner's
manual.
I f the @m in dica tor light appears after switch
ing the ignition on or while dr iv in g and the
[I] in
d icator light also blinks for approximate ly one
minute and t hen stays on, there is system ma l
function. The following are examples of sit ua
tions that cou ld cause a malfunction:
-If the message appears at the end o f the adap
tation phase, the system may not detect one or
severa l of the wheel senso rs necessa ry for pres
s ur e monitoring. This may result from one or
more wheels being installed without wheel sen
sors or with incompatible wheel sensors .
- A wheel sensor o r another component has
failed.
- Using snow cha ins can affect the f unction of
the system because of the shie lding effect of
the cha ins.
- The tire pressure monitor ing system is not
available due to a malfunction.
- Transmitters with the same frequency, such as
headphones or remote-controlled dev ices, may
cause a temporary system malfunction due to
the strong electromagnetic field .
Wheels
The m;i indicator lig ht and the message turn off
once the tire pressure monitoring system is avail
able again. If you cannot co rrect the malfunction
and
the m indicator light stays on, drive imme
diately to an authorized Audi dea ler or author
ized Audi Se rvice Facility to have the malfunct ion
repaired.
