TIRE AND WHEEL: TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM: Tire Pressure Warning Light Circuit

Tire Pressure Warning Light Circuit

DESCRIPTION

If the ECU detects any trouble, the tire pressure warning light blinks (stays on after blinking for 1 minute) and tire pressure monitor is cancelled at the same time. At this time, the ECU records a DTC in the memory.
Connecting terminals TC and CG of the DLC3 makes the tire pressure warning light blink to output DTCs.
