Tire Monitoring System: Service and Repair
TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR ID REGISTRATION^ When the TPMS transmitter and TPMS receiver are replaced, execute "Tire Pressure Sensor ID Registration." The TPMS won't function until the "Tire Pressure Sensor ID Registration" has been complete.
^ Also when the TPMS antenna(s) and feeder cable(s) are replaced, execute "Tire Pressure Sensor ID Registration." This is necessary to check whether data has been sent correctly from the TPMS transmitter.
Required Special Tools:
^ MIT46716: TPMS Magnet
^ MB991958: Scan Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)
^ MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)
^ MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable
^ MB991911: MUT-III Main Harness B
Register the tire pressure sensor IDs as described in the procedure.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
1. Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
3. Select "Interactive Diagnosis" from the start-up screen.
4. Select "System select."
5. Choose "TPMS" from the "CHASSIS" tab.
6. Select "MITSUBISHI."
7. Select"Special Function."
8. Select "Tire Pressure Sensor ID Registration."
CAUTION: Register all tire pressure sensor IDs within five minutes.
9. Select "5 tires PRES SNSR ID Registration (NORMAL SPARE TIRE)" and start the tire pressure sensor ID registration.
10. Emit signal from a TPMS transmitter as follows:
NOTE: You can start out the following operations from any TPMS transmitter. The tire pressure sensor ID registration has no order.
1. Clean the TPMS transmitter location on the wheel rim.
2. Position MIT46716 or a strong magnet as shown, and hold it there for 5 seconds or more.
NOTE:
^ By doing this work, the reed switch (incorporated in the TPMS transmitter) will activate the TPMS transmitter to send the tire pressure sensor ID.
^ If the TPMS transmitter is not activated, slide the magnet until it is activated. If the TPMS transmitter is still not activated, move the vehicle (turn the tire) by approximately half a turn of the tire. Then attempt to activate the TPMS transmitter.
11. Check completion of the above through scan tool MB991958.
12. Repeat the above steps 8 and 9 for all tires (including the spare tire).
NOTE: If the spare tire pressure sensor ID cannot be registered, bring the spare tire near one of the road tires. Then register the tire pressure sensor ID. There is no TPMS antenna for the spare tire, so this work helps the road tire TPMS antenna receive signal from the spare tire securely.
CAUTION: If the spare tire is removed, always reinstall it as shown. If the spare tire valve (TPMS transmitter) is not positioned as shown, the roll switch, which is incorporated in the TPMS transmitter, may operate. In that case, the system may determine the spare tire as a road tire incorrectly.
13. Check the completion of the tire pressure sensor ID registration (display on the screen).
14. After tire pressure sensor ID registration, turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
15. Remove scan tool MB991958.
