• Signal interference due to electronic de-vices or driving next to facilities emitting
the same radio frequencies as the TPM
sensors.
• Installing aftermarket window tinting that contains materials that may block radio
wave signals.
• Accumulation of snow or ice around the wheels or wheel housings.
• Using tire chains on the vehicle.
• Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPM sensors.
A system fault may occur due to an incorrect
TPM sensor location condition. When a sys-
tem fault occurs due to an incorrect TPM
sensor location, the “Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing Telltale Light” will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then remain on solid. The
system fault will also sound a chime. In
addition, the instrument cluster will display a
“Tire Pressure Temporarily Unavailable”
message in place of the tire pressure display
screen. If the ignition switch is cycled, this
sequence will repeat, providing the system
fault still exists. If the system fault no longer
exists, the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” will no longer flash and the tire pres-
sure display screen will be displayed showing
the tire pressure values the correct locations.
Vehicles With Non Matching Full Size Spare Or
Compact Spare
• The non matching full size spare or com-
pact spare tire does not have a TPM sensor.
Therefore, the TPMS will not monitor the
pressure in the non matching full size spare
or compact spare tire.
• If you install the non matching full size spare or compact spare tire in place of a
road tire that has a pressure below the
low-pressure warning limit, upon the next
ignition switch cycle, the TPM Telltale
Light and a “LOW TIRE” message will re-
main ON and a chime will sound. In addi-
tion, the graphic in the instrument cluster
will still display a pressure value in a differ-
ent color.
• After driving the vehicle for up to 20 min- utes above 15 mph (24 km/h), the TPM
Telltale Light will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then remain on solid. In
addition, the instrument cluster will display a "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message for a
minimum of five seconds and then display
dashes (- -) in place of the pressure value.
• For each subsequent ignition switch cycle, a chime will sound, the TPM Telltale Light
will flash on and off for 75 seconds and
then remain on solid, and the instrument
cluster will display a "SERVICE TPM SYS-
TEM" message for a minimum of five sec-
onds and then display dashes (- -) in place
of the pressure value.
• Once you repair or replace the original road tire and reinstall it on the vehicle in place of
the non matching full size spare or compact
spare, the TPMS will update automatically.
In addition, the TPM Telltale Light will turn
OFF and the graphic in the instrument
cluster will display a new pressure value
instead of dashes (- -), as long as no tire
pressure is below the low-pressure warning
limit in any of the four active road tires. The
vehicle may need to be driven for up to
20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in
order for the TPMS to receive this
information.

Tire Pressure Information System (TPIS)
Chassis Cab — If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Tire
Pressure Information System (TPIS).
The Tire Pressure Information System (TPIS)
uses wireless technology with wheel rim
mounted electronic sensors to transmit 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 the tires on your
vehicle monthly and to maintain the proper
pressure.
The TPIS consists of the following compo-
nents:
• Receiver module
• Four TPM sensors (Single Rear Wheel[SRW] applications)
• Six TPM sensors (Dual Rear Wheel [DRW] applications)
• Pressure display in the instrument cluster display. The TPIS system will display all four (Single
Rear Wheel [SRW] applications) or six (Dual
Rear Wheel [DRW] applications) tire pressure
values in the instrument cluster display.
If a system fault is detected, the instrument
cluster will display a "SERVICE TPM SYS-
TEM" message for a minimum of five seconds
and then display dashes (- -) in place of the
pressure value to indicate which sensor is not
being received.
If the ignition switch is cycled, this sequence
will repeat, providing the system fault still
exists. If the system fault no longer exists, the
"SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message will no
longer be displayed, and a pressure value will
display in place of the dashes. A system fault
can occur due to any of the following:
• Signal interference due to electronic de-
vices or driving next to facilities emitting
the same radio frequencies as the TPM
sensors.
• Installing aftermarket window tinting that contains materials that may block radio
wave signals.
• Accumulation of snow or ice around the wheels or wheel housings. • Using tire chains on the vehicle.
• Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPM
sensors.
