Tire Pressure Sensor/Transmitter Signal Jammed





SYMPTOM
TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR/TRANSMITTER SIGNAL JAMMED

LEFT FRONT TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR/TRANSMITTER SIGNAL JAMMED

When Monitored
With the ignition on, the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) monitors the tire pressure sensor/transmitters approximately once a minute (60 - 68 seconds) when the vehicle speed is above 33 km/h (20 mph).

Set Condition
If the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) module receives an undetectable frequency transmission from the left front tire pressure sensor/transmitter, the DTC will be set.

LEFT REAR TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR/TRANSMITTER SIGNAL JAMMED

When Monitored
With the ignition on, the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) monitors the tire pressure sensor/transmitters approximately once a minute (60 - 68 seconds) when the vehicle speed is above 33 km/h (20 mph).

Set Condition
If the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) module receives an undetectable frequency transmission from the left front tire pressure sensor/transmitter, the DTC will be set.

RIGHT FRONT TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR/TRANSMITTER SIGNAL JAMMED

When Monitored
With the ignition on, the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) monitors the tire pressure sensor/transmitters approximately once a minute (60 - 68 seconds) when the vehicle speed is above 33 km/h (20 mph).

Set Condition
If the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) module receives an undetectable frequency transmission from the left front tire pressure sensor/transmitter, the DTC will be set.

RIGHT REAR TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR/TRANSMITTER SIGNAL JAMMED

When Monitored
With the ignition on, the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) monitors the tire pressure sensor/transmitters approximately once a minute (60 - 68 seconds) when the vehicle speed is above 33 km/h (20 mph).

Set Condition
If the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) module receives an undetectable frequency transmission from the left front tire pressure sensor/transmitter, the DTC will be set.

SIGNAL JAMMED

When Monitored
With the ignition on, the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) monitors the tire pressure sensor/transmitters approximately once a minute (60 - 68 seconds) when the vehicle speed is above 33 km/h (20 mph).

Set Condition
If the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) module receives an undetectable frequency transmission from a tire pressure sensor/transmitter, the DTC will be set.

POSSIBLE CAUSES
- Outside Radio Frequency Interference

DIAGNOSTIC TEST

1. Inspect Tire Pressure Sensor / Transmitters

Turn the ignition on.





With the DRBIII, read DTCs.

Does the DRBIII display a Sensor/Transmitter Signal Jammed DTC?

Yes >> Replace the Tire Pressure Sensor/Transmitter at the affected wheel. Perform TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR VERIFICATION TEST.

No >> The condition that caused this DTC is currently not present. Inspect the related wiring harness for a possible intermittent condition. Perform TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR VERIFICATION TEST.
