6. Ukuxazulula izinkinga

If you encounter issues with your TPMS sensors, consider the following troubleshooting steps. Professional assistance is recommended for diagnosis and repair.

Izinkinga Ezivamile Nezixazululo:

  • Sensor Not Responding to Scanner: If a service scanner cannot detect or read the sensors (e.g., display sensor ID, frequency, battery status, PSI) prior to or after installation, do not proceed with installation or seek professional diagnosis. This may indicate an incompatible tool or a faulty sensor.
  • Isibani Sesexwayiso se-TPMS Sivuliwe: After installation, if the TPMS warning light remains on, a relearn procedure may be required. Ensure the correct TPMS servicing tool is used and updated. Drive the vehicle for a short period (e.g., 5-10 minutes) at a consistent speed to allow sensors to register.
  • Ukufundwa Okungalungile: Verify tire pressure with a reliable manual gauge. If readings are consistently inaccurate, the sensor may require reprogramming or replacement.
