message will not be present, and a pressure
value will be displayed instead of dashes.
A system fault can occur by any of the following:
Jamming due to electronic devices or driving

next to facilities emitting the same Radio
Frequencies as the TPMS sensors.
Lots of snow or ice around the wheels or

wheel housings.
Using tire chains on the vehicle.

Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPMS

sensors.
NOTE:
There is no TPMS sensor in the spare tire.
The TPMS will not be able to monitor the tire pres-
sure. If you install the 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 TPMS Warning Light will remain on, a chime
will sound, and the instrument cluster display will
still display a pressure value in the different color
graphic display and an "Inflate to XX" message
will be displayed. After driving the vehicle for up
to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h), the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light will
flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain
on solid. In addition, the instrument cluster
display will display a "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM"
message for five seconds and then display
dashes (--) in place of the pressure value. For
each subsequent ignition switch cycle, a chime
will sound, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds
and then remain on solid, and the instrument
cluster display will display a "SERVICE TPM
SYSTEM" message for five seconds 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 spare
tire, the TPMS will update automatically.
In addition, the TPMS Warning Light will turn off
and the graphic in the instrument cluster display
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.
TPMS Deactivation — If Equipped
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
can be deactivated if replacing all four wheel
and tire assemblies (road tires) with wheel and
tire assemblies that do not have TPMS sensors,
such as when installing winter wheel and tire
assemblies on your vehicle.
To deactivate the TPMS, first, replace all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with tires
not equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) sensors. Then, drive the vehicle
for 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h).
The TPMS will chime, the TPMS Warning Light
will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then
remain on. The instrument cluster will display
the "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message and then
display dashes (--) in place of the pressure
values.
Beginning with the next ignition cycle, the TPMS
will no longer chime or display the "SERVICE
TPM SYSTEM" message in the instrument
cluster but dashes (--) will remain in place of the
pressure values.
