not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, includ-
ing the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels
on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning prop-
erly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replac-

● When inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure, do not
apply excessive force to the valve stem to avoid breakage.
● After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure, always

Without the valve cap, dirt or moisture could get into the
valve, resulting in damage to the tire inflation pressure
sensor.
● Do not use metal valve caps, which may cause a metal
reaction, resulting in corrosion and damage of the tire
inflation pressure sensors.
● Once adjustments have been made, the warning light will
go off after a few minutes of driving.
