What is a Tire Pressure Monitoring System?

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) is an electronic system designed to monitor the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on your vehicle. The system reports current tire pressure information to the driver on each tire; an amber warning light will light up on your dash if there is a problem in the system, or if a tire is low. Under-inflated tires are the No. 1 cause of tire failure and contribute to tire disintegration, heat buildup, ply separation and sidewall/casing breakdowns. Properly inflated tires add greater stability, increased handling and braking efficiency, leading to greater safety for the drivers, passengers, vehicles and others on the road.

Plug-in devices don't 'diagnose' car problems

This combo is designed to help educate consumers about their vehicles, save them money by "diagnosing your vehicle," and provides them with updated maintenance, technician service bulletins, and recall information. It gives the diagnostic trouble code(s) that the computer sees and it gives an explanation of the codes and a narrative of the many possible fixes. This device does not perform detailed pinpoint testing, nor does it analyze the freeze-frame data from your vehicle from when the event occurred. To perform proper testing, analyze the event, and interpret the results of the testing, however, it takes a highly qualified and trained technician with professional diagnostic equipment and the software or connection for vehicle information comparisons.

Get a Professional Diagnosis for Your Vehicle

It's an analysis of the facts or problems in order to gain understanding and aid future planning; identifying the nature or cause of a phenomenon; and reaching an opinion or consensus through analysis. After pulling the data, which gives detailed information about when and how many times an event has occurred, the technician performs pinpoint testing on the system or systems involved. This procedure takes a highly qualified and trained technician; professional-grade diagnostic equipment; and the software or connection to vehicle information needed to perform the analysis. However, it's much more cost-effective to pay to have your vehicle properly diagnosed than to guess at replacement parts, perform repairs that are not needed, or to just avoid fixing the problem.
