Title
INITIALIZATION OF TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM (TPWS) DURING PDS

Component
GENERAL INFORMATION

Models
'08 Matrix

INTRODUCTION:

The 2008 model year Matrix is equipped with a direct-type Tire Pressure Warning System (TPWS). A Tire Pressure Warning System valve/sensor is mounted into each tire (except the spare tire), and the measured tire pressure data is transmitted through a Tire Pressure Warning System antenna/receiver to the TPWS ECU.

During Pre-Delivery Service (PDS), the tire pressure warning valves/sensors must be initialized by following the initialization procedure in this TSB.

APPLICABLE VEHICLES:
- 2008 model year Matrix vehicles.






REQUIRED SSTs:

NOTE:
- Please contact your zone Area Parts & Service Managers to order additional Techstream units.
- The Toyota Diagnostic Tester (TDT) and CAN Interface Module may also be used to perform the service procedures listed in this bulletin.






WARRANTY INFORMATION:

REFERENCE:







- The Low Tire Pressure Warning Light will blink until all the tire pressure warning valves/sensors are activated.







- The Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) listed may be stored in the TPWS ECU until the tire pressure warning valves/sensors are activated.
- The DTCs will automatically clear when the tire pressure warning valves/sensors are activated.

INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE:

1. Connect Techstream.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "IG-ON" mode and check that the Low Tire Pressure Warning Light blinks for 1 minute.







3. Adjust all tires to the standard tire inflation pressure, as indicated on the Tire and Loading Information label located inside the driver's door jamb and confirm that the Low Tire Pressure Warning Light is OFF.

NOTE:
- This operation is required for the system to be activated and MUST be performed for each tire, one at a time.
- If there is great difference between the current temperature of the tire and wheel (for example: shop temperature) and expected temperature (for example: outdoor temperature), this needs to be considered when adjusting the tire pressure.
- Adjust the tire pressure when the tires are cold.

4. Using Techstream, check for TPWS DTCs.
- If NO DTCs are stored, go to step 1 of the Initialization Procedure.
- If DTCs C2111 - C2114 are stored, repeat step 3.







5. Push and hold the Tire Pressure Warning "SET" Switch for 3 seconds until the Low Tire Pressure Warning Light blinks 3 times and then turns OFF to set the tire pressure initialization.

NOTE:
It is necessary for the ignition to be in "IG-ON" mode at LEAST 5 minutes for initialization to complete correctly.

6. Check the tire pressure values of all the tires using Techstream.

NOTE:
If the tire pressure values CANNOT be displayed on the Techstream screen, the initialization is NOT completed. Repeat steps 5 - 6.
