If the ignition key 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 CHECK TPM SYSTEM
message will no longer display, and a pressure value will
display in place of the dashes. A system fault can occur due

values are still being received from the TPM sensors but
they may not be located in the correct vehicle position.
The system still needs to be serviced as long as the
CHECK TPM SYSTEM message is displayed.
