OTHER ALERTS AND WARNINGS
SENSOR FAULT ALERT
Indicated by: Flashing LED Light, Sensor Fault Alert Message
A Sensor Fault Alert will be issued for any
programmed sensor for which the
Receiver/ECU has not received data for a
predetermined time. Typically, this time is set
to 35 minutes. Sensor Fault Alerts are self-
clearing as soon as data is received from the
given sensor. Prolonged Sensor Fault Alerts
can be an indicator of damaged or missing
sensors and should be addressed to ensure
the system is functioning properly. Tires with
active Sensor Faults cannot provide
pressure and temperature alerts. Sensor Fault Alerts may also appear
when the vehicle is stopped and idling for an extended period of time. Due to
the nature of RF signals, the reception from a tire sensor may be blocked
when the vehicle is stationary. If the fault occurs and does not clear after
the vehicle is driven, please report this condition to maintenance
personnel as it may indicate there is a damaged or missing sensor.
LOW SENSOR BATTERY ALERT
Indicated by: Flashing LED Light, Battery Alert Icon
Typically, a low sensor battery alert will be
triggered when the battery reaches 2.1 Volts
and below. This alert indicates that the sensor
should be replaced as soon as possible before
the battery dies and the sensor stops
transmitting. If not replaced, once a sensor
stops transmitting, after 35 minutes a Sensor
Fault will be activated for that tire location and
prevent pressure and temperature alerts from
being issued for the tire location.
