DTC 41

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING: TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM: C2141/41-C2144/44: Transmitter ID1 Error
C2144/44 - Transmitter ID4 Error

DESCRIPTION

The tire pressure warning valve and transmitter installed in each tire and wheel assembly measures the tire pressures. The measured values are transmitted as radio waves to the tire pressure warning antenna and receiver on the body 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 comes on.

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





HINT
It is necessary to perform this procedure to identify the malfunctioning tire pressure warning valve and transmitter as it cannot be identified only by the output DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
* When replacing the tire pressure warning ECU, read the transmitter IDs stored in the old ECU using the Techstream and write them down before removal.
* It is necessary to perform initialization Initialization after registration Registration of the transmitter IDs into the tire pressure warning ECU if the ECU and/or any of the valve and transmitters have been replaced.

PROCEDURE

1. IDENTIFY TRANSMITTER CORRESPONDING TO DTC

(a) Set all tire pressures to the specified value(s) Service Precautions.

(b) Turn the ignition switch off.

(c) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(d) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

(e) Turn the Techstream on.

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

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

(h) Rapidly reduce the tire pressure for each wheel at least 40 kPa (0.4 kg/cm2, 5.8 psi) within 30 seconds. If "ID Tire Inflation Pressure" 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 was 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 each tire.

Tire Pressure Monitor





HINT
*: It may take about 2 or 3 minutes until the values are displayed. If the values are not displayed after a few minutes, perform troubleshooting according to the inspection procedure for DTCs C2121/21 to C2124/24 DTC 84.

(i) Check the Data List.

Result:





NOTICE:
* If no "ID Tire Inflation Pressure" data has changed, reset the tire pressure to the appropriate specified value and rotate the tire 90 to 270 degrees. Then, rapidly release the tire pressure and recheck it.
* Record the transmitter IDs and positions of transmitters that are normal.

(j) 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.

(k) When all of the "ID Tire Inflation Pressure" data (ID1 to ID4) have changed, identify the malfunctioning tire pressure warning valve and transmitter using the recorded ID numbers and output DTCs.

NEXT -- Continue to next step.

2. REPLACE TIRE PRESSURE WARNING VALVE AND TRANSMITTER

(a) Replace the identified tire pressure warning valve and transmitter with a new one Removal.

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

NEXT -- Continue to next step.

3. REGISTRATION OF TRANSMITTER ID

(a) Register the transmitter ID for all wheels Registration.

NEXT -- Continue to next step.

4. PERFORM INITIALIZATION

(a) Perform initialization Initialization.

NEXT -- Continue to next step.

5. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM

(a) Turn the ignition switch off.

(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(c) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

(d) Turn the Techstream on.

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

(f) Check the values by referring to the table below.
