Is there continuity?  

YES -Check for loose terminals and poor connections at the TPMS control unit. If necessary, substitute a 
known-good TPMS control unit (see TPMS CONTROL UNIT REPLACEMENT ), and recheck. 

NO -Repair open in the wire between TPMS control unit and the ECM/PCM. 

DTC 91,93,95,97: TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR INTERNAL ERROR 

1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).  

2. Check for DTCs with the HDS.  

3. Note the tire pressure sensor(s) number by the indicated DTC. 

DTC CHART 

4. Determine the affected tire location by the tire pressure sensor number (see TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR 

LOCATION ). 

Did the sensors respond to the TPMS initializer tool?  

YES -Go to step 5. 

NO -Check that the tire pressure sensor is properly mounted. If necessary, replace the appropriate tire 
pressure sensor (see TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR REPLACEMENT ). 

5. Clear the DTC with the HDS.  

6. Test-drive the vehicle at 28 mph (45 km/h) or more for at least 1 minute.  

7. Check for DTCs with the HDS. 

Is DTC 91, 93, 95, or 97 indicated?  

YES -Replace the appropriate tire pressure sensor (see TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR 
REPLACEMENT
 ) and retest. If DTCs are still present, substitute a known-good TPMS control unit 
(see TPMS CONTROL UNIT REPLACEMENT ), and retest. 

NO -If any other DTCs are indicated, troubleshoot the appropriate DTC. If no DTCs are indicated, the 
system is OK at this time.

SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING

LOW TIRE PRESSURE INDICATOR DOES NOT COME ON, AND NO DTCS ARE STORED 

1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).  

2. Check the low tire pressure indicator for several seconds when the ignition switch is turned ON (II). 

Did the indicator come on and then go off?  

YES -Go to step 3. 

NO -Go to step 8. 

3. Turn the ignition switch OFF.  

4. Check the pressure in all four tires. 

Is the tire pressure Except SC model: 190 kPa (1.9 kgf/cm

2

 , 28 psi), SC model 175 kPa (1.8 kgf/cm

2

 , 25 

psi) or less?  

YES -Go to step 5. 

NO -The system is OK at this time. 

5. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).  

6. Determine the affected tire location by the tire pressure sensor number (see TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR 

LOCATION ). 

Did the sensors respond to the TPMS initializer tool?  

YES -Go to step 7. 

NO -Check that the tire pressure sensor is properly mounted. If necessary, replace the appropriate tire 
pressure sensor (see TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR REPLACEMENT ). 

7. Check the Tire 1, Tire 2, Tire 3, or Tire 4 Air Pressure in the TPMS DATA LIST with the HDS, and 

compare with the actual measured tire pressure. 

Is the indicated tire pressure on the HDS within 40 kPa (0.4 kgf/cm

2

 , 6 psi) of the actual tire pressure? 

 

YES -Go to step 8. 

NO -Replace the appropriate tire pressure sensor (see TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR 
REPLACEMENT
 ). 

8. Wait about 5 seconds with the ignition switch turned ON (II).

9. Check for gauges DTC with the HDS (see WIRE COLOR CODES ). 

Is any gauge DTC indicated?  

YES -Troubleshoot the indicated gauge DTC. 

NO -Go to step 10. 

10. Turn the ignition switch OFF.  

11. Disconnect TPMS control unit connector A (14P).  

12. Measure voltage between TPMS control unit connector A (14P) terminals No. 3 and No. 5.

Is there battery voltage?  

YES -Repair short to power in the wire between the TPMS control unit and the No. 10 (7.5 A) fuse in the 
under-dash fuse/relay box. 

NO -Check for loose terminals and poor connections at the TPMS control unit. If necessary, substitute a 
known-good TPMS control unit (see TPMS CONTROL UNIT REPLACEMENT ), and recheck. 

LOW TIRE PRESSURE INDICATOR DOES NOT GO OFF, AND NO DTCS ARE STORED 

1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.  

2. Disconnect TPMS control unit connector B (20P).  

3. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).  

4. Check the low tire pressure indicator for several seconds when the ignition switch is turned ON (II). 

Did the indicator come on and then go off?  

YES -Check for loose terminals and poor connections at the TPMS control unit. If necessary, substitute a 
known-good TPMS control unit (see TPMS CONTROL UNIT REPLACEMENT ), and recheck.
