Registration [11/2024 - ]: Procedure

  1. BEFORE REGISTRATION 
    NOTE:
    • The transmitter ID is written on the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter. It is not possible to read the transmitter ID after installing the tire onto the wheel. Therefore, make a note of the transmitter ID before installing the tire.
    • Tire pressure warning ECU and receiver ID registration after replacement must be performed using the GTS.
    • Be sure to check procedures or what work is required after replacing parts.

      Refer to PRECAUTION [11/2023 - ] 

    1. When replacing tire pressure warning ECU and receiver:
      1. Before replacing, use the GTS to read and record all of the current IDs and registered tires with transmitters (4 or 5 tires) of the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter registered to the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver.
      2. If reading the stored transmitter IDs is impossible due to malfunctions of components such as the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver, remove the tires from the wheels and check the IDs located on the tire pressure warning valve and transmitters.
    2. When replacing tire pressure warning valve and transmitter:
      1. Take a note of the 7-digit number (transmitter ID) written on the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter.

    NOTE:
    • If the transmitter IDs have not been registered, Vehicle Control History (RoB) X20FA is stored in the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver after 3 minutes or more.
    • If normal pressure values are displayed, the transmitter IDs have been registered correctly.
    • If another tire pressure warning valve and transmitter belonging to the same system is installed to a tire other than the one transmitter registration is being performed on, automatic ID registration does not complete.

    HINT: 

    • If the ECU Data List is displayed using the GTS while work is being performed, the registration mode will be canceled.
    • If the ignition switch is turned off before starting to drive while performing work, registration mode will be canceled.
    1. Adjust the tire pressure in all tires to the specified pressure.

      Refer to INSPECTION [12/2019 - ]

    2. Turn the ignition switch off and stop the vehicle for 15 minutes or more.

      HINT:

    3. Select "Identifying Each Wheel & Position" on the multi-information display and press and hold the "OK" switch (steering pad switch assembly) until the tire pressure warning light blinks 3 times.

      HINT: 

      During registration, the tire pressure warning light blinks for 1 minute before turning on, the multi-information display tire pressure displays as "---" and "Identifying Each Wheel & Position" is displayed.

    4. Drive at approximately 40 km/h (25 mph) for approximately 10 to 30 minutes during 1 trip.
    5. During the procedure, make 2 or more right or left turns.

      HINT: 

      Do not drive the vehicle in reverse during registration.

      If the vehicle is driven in reverse during registration, the information may be reset before registration completes, and registration may take longer than normal to complete.

    6. When registration is completed, the tire pressure warning light turns off, the normal tire pressure is displayed on the multi-information display.

      HINT: 

      • Registration may take longer than normal in the following driving environments.
        • Vehicle is often stopped
        • Vehicle is stopped for long period of time
        • Vehicle is driven in reverse

      HINT: 

      • Do not drive the vehicle in reverse gear while performing Tire Position Identification. If the vehicle is driven in reverse gear while performing Tire Position Identification, identification information will be discarded and Tire Position Identification may take longer than usual.
      • When the vehicle is driven under the following conditions, Tire Position Identification may take longer than usual.
        • The vehicle is stopped frequently.
        • The vehicle is stopped for a long period of time.
        • The vehicle is driven in reverse gear.
        • The vehicle is driven on rough roads or uneven surfaces.
  8. METHOD TO SWITCH ID 
    NOTE:
    • If there is a malfunction in the tire pressure warning system, perform troubleshooting before switching IDs.
