C151D






C151D-00-TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR LOCATION UNDETERMINED

For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.

Theory of Operation

The vehicle Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) Sensor locate process occurs after the vehicle is stationary for more than 20 min. The TPM system will determine the sensor positions while driving at speeds above 24 km/h (15 mph). This process can take up to 20 min to determine TPM Sensor positions.

- When Monitored:
During vehicle TPM Sensor locate process.

- Set Condition:
Must fail multiple vehicle TPM Sensor locate processes if localization fails due to Left/Right fail or Front/Rear fail or if the TPM Module is new and has never attempted localization. If missing TPM Sensors are present on first drive, C151D will set to show that the TPM Sensor location cannot be determined/guaranteed (cannot revert to last known good locations).





VERIFY DTC IS ACTIVE

NOTE: The DTC C151D should not exist on its own. If any other DTCs are present, refer to the appropriate diagnostic procedure first before continuing.

NOTE: If a new TPM Module was installed, the vehicle must remain stationary for 20 minutes before proceeding with this diagnostic procedure.

1. Turn the ignition on.
2. With the scan tool, read and record TPM Module DTCs.
3. Test drive the vehicle at a speed greater than 24 km/h (15 mph) for 20 minutes in order to receive TPM Sensor data and allow for the system to update.
4. With the scan tool, erase TPM Module DTCs.
5. With the scan tool, select View DTCs in the TPM Module.

Is DTC C151D Active on its own at this time?

Yes

- Install a new TPM Module. Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) Module - Removal.
- Perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST. TPM Verification.

No

- Test complete, the condition or conditions that originally set this DTC are not present at this time. Using the wiring diagrams as a guide, check all related splices and connectors for signs of water intrusion, corrosion, pushed out or bent terminals, and correct pin tension.
- Perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST. TPM Verification.
