Hyundai Tucson: Tire Pressure Monitoring System / TPMS Sensor

- Description

1.Driving stateSensor transmissions occur every 1 minutes and pressure is measured every 15 seconds.

2.Stationary stateSensor transmissions does not occur and pressure is measured every 60 seconds.

3.Auto learning statusWhen driving after stopping more than 15 minutes , sensor transmissions occur every 33 seconds and pressure is measured every 10.8 seconds.

4.Off statusThe TPMS sensor is not operated.Due to stock status, does not measured pressure, temperature, battery status.

5.Alert State :When a 2 psi change in pressure from the last transmission occurs, transmit tire information immediately.The pressure is measured every 2 seconds.

- Replacement

1.Remove the tire. (Refer to Suspension System - "Wheel")

2.Remove the screw with torx driver (A).

   

• When installing the bead brake, make sure that it does not come in contact with the TPMS sensor.

• Be careful not to damage the TPMS sensor when installing the bead brake near the TPMS sensor.

3.Remove the sensor body (A) from the valve (B) in the direction of the arrow.

4.Remove the valve using the valve mounting tool.

   

• Do not reuse the snap-in type TPMS sensor.

(1)Cut the rubber at the bottom of valve with a knife.

(2)Use the valve mounting tool to pull out the valve until it is entirely out of the lower hole.

5.Apply lubricant to the surface of the valve, and then mount it through the valve hole of the wheel.

   

We recommend using regular soapy water as lubricant.

   

• The TPMS sensor valve bottom is not properly sealed if it is not fully mounted on the wheel, as shown in the following figure:

• Make sure that the valve body is pulled entirely through the hole.

6.Apply soapy water or lubricant to the upper/lower bead section of the tire.

7.In order to mount lower the beads, place the TPMS sensor at 5 o'clock, starting from the head of the tire replacement equipment.

8.Rotate the rim clockwise and press tire towards 3 o'clock to mount the lower beads.

   

• Mount the tire on the wheel. Make sure that the beads touch the edge of the rim behind the sensor (towards 6 o'clock).

9. In order to mount the upper beads, press the tire towards 3 o'clock and turn the rim clockwise.

10. Inject air into the tire until the beads are in the correct position.

11.Adjust the tire pressure according to the recommended tire pressure for the vehicle.

12.If the TPMS sensor malfunctions, you must perform TPMS sensor learning. Replace any faulty sensors and perform TPMS sensor learning.

- Diagnostic Procedure Using a Diagnostic Instrument The following section describes how to diagnose faults using a diagnostic instrument.

1.Connect the diagnostic instrument to the self-diagnostic connector (16-pin) beneath the crash pad on the side of driver's seat, and then turn on the ignition to activate the diagnostic instrument.

2.In the diagnostic tool Vehicle Type Selection menu, select "Vehicle Type" and "TPMS" System, and then opt for "OK."

[Register Sensor Method]

   

• Check that Write ID and Read ID are the match.

• After successfully registering the sensor, perform "Sensor Wireless Information" to confirm that the sensor operates properly.

[Sensor Status Method]

   

• Each entry must be checked for normal operation of each sensor.

• After replacing the tires or sensors, check for proper operation of sensor after sensor registration process.
