DESCRIPTION

The tire pressure warning valves and transmitters that are installed in the tire and wheel assemblies measure the air pressure of the tires. The measured values are transmitted to the tire pressure warning antenna and receiver on the body as radio waves and then sent to the tire pressure warning ECU. The ECU compares the measured air pressure values with the air pressure threshold. When the measured air pressure value is less than this threshold, the warning light in the combination meter turns on.

When the internal circuit of a tire pressure warning valve and transmitter is malfunctioning, one of these DTCs is stored.

DTC Detection Condition

Trouble Area

C2141/41

C2142/42

C2143/43

C2144/44

The battery of the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter is depleted or G-SW in the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter is abnormal.

  • Tire pressure warning valve and transmitter
  • Tire pressure warning ECU

HINT:

It is necessary to perform the procedure to identify the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter that is malfunctioning because it cannot be identified by the output DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:

PROCEDURE

1.

IDENTIFY TRANSMITTER CORRESPONDING TO DTC

(a) Set the tire pressure to the specified value TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING: TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM: PRECAUTION (2008 Sequoia) .

(b) Turn the ignition switch off.

(c) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(d) Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the Techstream on.

(e) Enter the following menus: Chassis / Tire Pressure Monitor / Data List.

(f) Display the "ID Tire Inflation Pressure" data for each wheel using the Techstream.

(g) Rapidly reduce the tire pressure for each wheel at least 40 kPa (0.4 kgf/cm2, 5.8 psi) within 30 seconds. If "ID Tire Inflation Pressure" data displayed on the Techstream (ID1 to ID4) does not change, the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter corresponding to the unchanged "ID Tire Inflation Pressure" data is the cause of the output DTC.

HINT:

  • Identify the malfunctioning tire pressure warning valve and transmitter by repeatedly decreasing the tire pressure for each tire.
  • Record which "ID Tire Inflation Pressure" data (ID1 to ID4) corresponds to which tire.

Actual tire inflation pressure

If 100 kPa (1 kgf/cm2, 14 psi) is displayed for absolute pressure or 0 kPa (0 kgf/cm2, 0 psi) is displayed for relative pressure, data has not been received*.

HINT:

*: It may take up to about 5 to 6 minutes to update the tire pressure data. If the values are not displayed after about 5 to 6 minutes, perform troubleshooting according to the inspection procedure for DTCs C2121/21 to C2124/24 TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING: TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM: DESCRIPTION (2008 Sequoia) .

(h) Check the Data List.

"Tire Inflation Pressure" data did not change.

Transmitter corresponding to DTC

NOTICE:

  • When "ID Tire Inflation Pressure" data has not changed, reset the tire pressure to the appropriate specified value and rotate the tire 90 to 270°. Then forcibly transmit the transmitter ID and recheck.
  • Record the transmitter ID and position of transmitters that are normal.

(i) When the "ID Tire Inflation Pressure" data (ID1 to ID4) has changed, repeat this procedure to identify the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter that corresponds to the DTC.

(j) When all of the "ID Tire Inflation Pressure" data (ID1 to ID4) has changed, identify the malfunctioning tire pressure warning valve and transmitter using recorded transmitter IDs and the output DTC.

(k) Set the tire pressures to the appropriate specified values TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING: TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM: PRECAUTION (2008 Sequoia) .

2.

REPLACE TIRE PRESSURE WARNING VALVE AND TRANSMITTER

(a) Replace the identified tire pressure warning valve and transmitter with a new one TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING: TIRE PRESSURE WARNING VALVE: REMOVAL (2008 Sequoia) .

HINT:

  • Before installing a new tire pressure warning valve and transmitter, read and write down its transmitter ID.
  • The transmitter IDs for the tire pressure warning valve and transmitters that are not replaced should be checked using the Techstream and recorded.
