Transmitter Wake Up OperationINFOID:0000000001735373
NOTE:
This procedure must be done after replacement of a low tire pressure warning transmitter or BCM.
New replacement transmitters are provided "asleep" and must first be "woken up" using Transmitter
Activation Tool J-45295 before ID registration can be performed.
1. Turn ignition switch ON. Push the transmitter activation tool against the tire near the front left transmitter. Press the button for
5 seconds. The hazard warning lamps flash per the following
diagram.
2. Repeat this procedure for each tire in the following order: FL, FR, RR, RL. Tool number : (J-45295)

ID REGISTRATION WITH TRANSMITTER ACTIVATION TOOL
NOTE:
This procedure must be done after replacement of a low tire pressure warning transmitter or BCM.
New replacement transmitters are provided "asleep" and must first be "woken up" using Transmitter
Activation Tool J-45295 before ID registration can be performed.
1. Connect CONSULT-III.
2. Select "ID REGIST" under BCM.

System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001735376
BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM)
The BCM is shown with the lower instrument panel LH removed. The
BCM reads the air pressure signal received by the remote keyless
entry receiver, and controls the low tire pressure warning lamp as
shown below. It also has a self-d iagnosis function to detect a system
malfunction.
TRANSMITTER
A sensor-transmitter integrated with a valve is installed in each
wheel, and transmits a detected air pr essure signal in the form of a
radio wave. The radio signal is received by the remote keyless entry
receiver.

The remote keyless entry receiver is shown with the instrument
panel RH removed. The remote keyless entry receiver receives the
air pressure signal transmitted by the transmitter in each wheel.
COMBINATION METER
The combination meter receives tire pressure status from the BCM
using CAN communication. When a low tire pressure condition is
sensed by the BCM, the combination meter low tire pressure warn-
ing lamp is activated.
TIRE PRESSURE WARNING CHECK CONNECTOR
The tire pressure warning check connector can be grounded in order
to initiate self-diagnosis without a CONSULT-III. Refer to WT-12,
"Self-Diagnosis (Without CONSULT-III)". The tire pressure warning
check connector is located behind the lower portion of the instrument
panel LH.
DISPLAY UNIT
Displays the air pressure of each tire.
NOTE:
After the ignition switch is turned on, the pressure values will not be
displayed until the data of each wheel is received.

CONSULT-III Function (BCM)INFOID:0000000001735378
CONSULT-III DIAGNOSTIC MODES
CONSULT-III can display each diagnostic item using the diagnostic test modes shown following.
DESCRIPTION
During driving, the tire pressure monitoring system receives the signal transmitted from the transmitter
installed in each wheel, and turns on the low tire pressure warning lamp when the tire pressure becomes low.
The control unit (BCM) for this system has pr essure judgement and self-diagnosis functions.
FUNCTION
When the tire pressure monitoring system detects low infl ation pressure or an internal malfunction, the low tire
pressure warning lamp in the combination meter comes on. The malfunction is indicated by the low tire pres-
sure warning lamp flashing.

Before performing the self-diagnosis, be sure to register the ID, or the actual malfunction location may be different from that displayed on
CONSULT-III.
Self-Diagnosis (Without CONSULT-III)INFOID:0000000004291535
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (WITHOUT CONSULT-III)
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Ground the tire pressure warning check connector to initiate self diagnosis.
3. Compare the flashing pattern with the flash code chart below.
NOTE:
The system is normal when the low tire pressure warning lamp flashes 5 times and continues repeating. Self-
diagnosis results are erased automatically by turning the ignition switch “OFF”.
