Yellow Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light.
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Lamp will illumi-
nate in the instrument cluster, and an audible chime will
be activated when one or more of the four active road tire
pressures are low. In addition, the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC) will display a graphic of the
pressure value(s) with the low tire(s) flashing.
Should a low tire condition occur on any of the four active
road tire(s), you should stop as soon as possible, and
inflate the low tire(s) that is flashing on the graphic display
to the vehicle’s recommended cold placard pressure value.
The system will automatically update, the graphic display
of the pressure value(s) will stop flashing, and the Tire
Pressure Monitoring Lamp will extinguish once the up-
dated tire pressure(s) have been received. The vehicle may
need to be driven for up to 10 minutes above 15 mph
(25 km/h) to receive this information.
Check TPM System Message
The Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Lamp will flash on
and off for 75 seconds, and remain on solid when a
system fault is detected. The system fault will also sound
a chime. The EVIC will display a “CHECK TPM SYS-
TEM” message for 3 seconds. This text message is then
followed by a graphic display, with “- - -“ in place of the
pressure value(s) indicating which Tire Pressure Moni-
toring Sensor(s) is not being received.
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, the ЉCHECK TPM SYSTEMЉ
text 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 scenarios: 1) Jamming due
to electronic devices or driving next to facilities emitting
the same Radio Frequencies as the TPM sensors. 2)
Installing some form of aftermarket window tinting that
