TPMS diagnostic information – Dodge Journey 2009-2019

Dodge Journey, 2009-2019

After the TREAD Act was mandated in 2007, all vehicles manufactured in the United States beginning in 2008, must be installed with direct or indirect TPMS systems.

The Dodge Journey uses a direct TPMS system, which means TPMS sensors are installed in the wheel. If one or more tires indicate low tire pressure, the TPMS sensors will transfer the information to the vehicle’s ECU. An indicator light (low-line TPMS system) or each tire pressure will show on the dash (high-line TPMS system).

When a sensor is replaced for one or more wheels of a Dodge Journey, a TPMS relearn is recommended to transfer the new TPMS sensor ID’s to the vehicle’s ECU, according to the TIA relearn chart.

Type of TPMS system:

• Direct TPMS, TPMS sensors are installed in the wheel, tire pressure is communicated via radio frequency (RF) technology from the sensor to the vehicle’s ECU

OE and Aftermarket (Universal, Hybrid, Programmable, Configurable, One-to-One, OE-style) options for TPMS sensor replacement:

All OE, programmable, configurable, hybrid and OE-type (one-to-one) TPMS sensor options and service kits can be found in the VT56 , VT55 ,  VT36 TPMS Tools and most Powered by ATEQ tools.

Type of TPMS frequency:

Type of relearn procedures:.

• Auto relearn procedure
• Bonus OBD relearn procedure coverage as an option on the VT56 and VT46 branded tools for years 2009-2017, requires OBD module

Type of TPMS tool required for TPMS reset:

• TPMS activation tool such as VT15 , VT31 , VT36 or VT56 for auto relearn
• VT56 TPMS SCAN TOOL with OBDII module includes Sync ID technology for software versions DA1-25-04 and higher for bonus OBD relearn, available for years 2009-2017

Auto relearn procedure:

• Confirm TPMS sensors are properly installed
• Adjust tire pressure to placard value
• Hold TPMS tester on left front tire sidewall next to the valve stem, use TPMS tool to activate the sensor
• Repeat for the right front, right rear and left rear sensors
• Drive vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph or until TPMS light is off

Bonus coverage, OBD relearn procedure, years 2009-2017:

• OBDII module is required, attach to the tool
• Hold TPMS tester on left front tire sidewall next to valve stem, use TPMS tool to activate the sensor
• Apply OBD module to DLC
• Turn ignition to ON
• Press OK on TPMS tool to transfer data to ECU
• Disconnect OBD module from DLC
• Turn ignition OFF then start the engine
• Drive for at least 5 minutes at 28 mph

Troubleshooting tips

Oversized rims.

If you notice interference of your TPMS signal, it could be due to oversized rims which can cause RF signal interference.

Auto-relearn, the light won’t turn off?

The auto relearn procedure steps require the technician to drive for at least 5 minutes at 28 mph. Unfortunately, when you’re at the shop, it is not always easy or time-valuable to drive a vehicle around at over 28 mph for that amount of time. If the shop is in a city, it may not be possible to drive for over 28 mph unless the user drives outside of a city environment where it is possible to drive at higher speeds.

Solution? For RAM vehicles 2008-2017, the bonus OBD relearn procedure is available for the ATEQ VT56, thanks to patented Sync-ID technology. This advanced feature allows the user to perform an OBD relearn to turn the light off, with minimal to no driving time required to turn the light off, saving the technician time and the customer labor costs.

TPMS DTC code information

Use the VT56 to retrieve Dodge TPMS DTC codes by selecting the “Service” icon. After selecting the Make, Model, and Year, select the DTC code icon. Use the OBDII module to retrieve the Dodge DTC TPMS information to diagnose and service the TPMS issues determined.

Reset and Troubleshoot the Dodge Journey Tire Pressure Light (2008-2020)

What is the dodge journey tpms.

The low tire pressure alert on the Dodge Journey, though it might seem bothersome, plays a pivotal role in maintaining safety while driving. Comprising four key elements, the Dodge Journey’s tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) seamlessly works to inform the driver of any tire air pressure issues: These include the Tire Pressure Sensors, the TPMS receiver module, the ECM, and the dashboard warning message for low air pressure.

How Does the Dodge Journey TPMS Work?

Sensors in Tires : Constantly measure air pressure and temperature of each tire.

Radio Wave Data Transfer : TPMS Sensors transmit real-time data to the Dodge Journey’s computer.

TPMS Receiver Module: Accepts and processes the tire pressure sensor data.

ECM’s Function: Compares tire pressure data with Dodge Grand Caravan set standards.

Air Pressure Drop Alert: Low tire pressure warning light is a yellow or orange exclamation mark.

TPMS Self-Assessment: The system self-checks and indicates any detected issues by flashing the low tire pressure alert symbol.

Steps to Reset the Dodge Journey Tire Light

Make sure the Dodge Journey tires have cooled, either by not driving or waiting for 3 hours after a drive. 

Calibrate the air pressures in each tire to the exact recommended cold levels.

Drive the Dodge Journey for approximately 20 minutes, ensuring you go faster than 15 mph.

Note: The Dodge Journey Does Not Have a Tire Pressure Reset Button!

Steps to Deactivate the Dodge Journey Tire Pressure System

To turn off the Dodge Journey TPMS, ensure all four wheels are replaced with those lacking pressure sensors. After deactivation, tire pressure data will shift to dashes (~) on the display screen. 

Mount 4 wheels devoid of TPMS sensors onto the Dodge Journey.

Drive your Dodge Journey for around 20 minutes, maintaining a speed greater than 15 mph (24 km/h).

Once done, the TPMS will emit a chime, with its warning indicator flashing for 75 seconds before remaining constant.

Turn the engine off and then back on.

On all following ignition starts, the TPMS alerts will be absent.

Once TPMS is off, expect tire pressure metrics to show as dashes (~) on your screen.

Steps to Reactivate the Dodge Journey Tire Pressure System

Reinstall the original wheels and tires with the tire pressure sensors in them onto the Dodge Journey. 

Drive the Dodge Journey for approximately 20 minutes. 

Cycle the engine on and off.

Dodge Journey Tire Pressure Sensor Batteries

Each Dodge Journey tire features a pressure sensor containing a circuit board, antenna, and a non-replaceable battery. If that battery depletes, you’ll need to replace the entire sensor. Dodge Journey tire sensor batteries last 5 to 10 years or up to 150,000 miles.

6 Tips to Troubleshoot the Dodge Journey Tire Light

Since the Dodge Journey comes without a tire pressure reset feature, addressing the low tire pressure light can involve some experimentation. Among the listed approaches, one should effectively diagnose the Dodge Journey’s tire pressure warning:

SOLUTION 1: IDENTIFY IF A TIRE IS EXPERIENCING AIR LOSS

If you notice one tire less inflated than the others, this typically indicates a leak. To confirm, do the following:

Give the tire a thorough visual assessment and ensure it’s inflated to the recommended cold pressure.

Drive the Dodge Journey, keeping a speed above 15 mph, until the TPMS alert disappears. 

🎯 WHAT IT MEANS: If every sensor is in good order and the tires contain the right air quantity, the tire warning light should cease once the Dodge Journey is driven. But, if it disappears and re-emerges while driving, it’s a strong sign of a tire leak.

SOLUTION 2: REBOOTING YOUR DODGE JOURNEY'S ONBOARD COMPUTER

Every low tire pressure alert gets recorded in the Dodge Journey’s onboard computer. To potentially wipe these alerts and deactivate the warning light, you’ll need to reboot the Journey’s computer system. Proceed as follows:

Confirm that the Dodge Journey’s engine and all its power systems are shut off.

Detach the negative terminal from the Journey’s 12 Volt battery.

After waiting about a minute, re-link and fasten the negative terminal to the battery.

Drive for 30 minutes. 

🎯 WHAT IT MEANS: Carrying out this routine should extinguish the tire alert. But, if the tire warning comes on again after your drive, it suggests a potential tire leak or an issue with one of the TPMS sensors.

AUTEL TPMS PROGRAMMING TOOL

SOLUTION 3: EVALUATING AND TESTING TPMS SENSORS

For a thorough evaluation of each Dodge Journey TPMS sensor, you’ll need a TPMS programming tool or an OBD2 scan tool. The TPMS programming tool facilitates individual assessments of every tire’s pressure sensor. On the other hand, the OBD2 scan tool provides insights into any TPMS discrepancies and identifies tires with communication issues. To use a TPMS programming tool:

Link the tool to the Dodge Journey’s ECM by connecting it to the car’s OBD2 interface.

Comply with the directions provided by the tool and commence the inspection of each TPMS sensor, positioning the tool close to the valve stem on every tire and select the “test” or “trigger” function on the tool. 

🎯WHAT IT MEANS : After testing of all tire pressure sensors, the TPMS programming tool will convey its analysis for each. If the tool faces challenges in accessing a sensor, indicates low or drained battery life, or shows irregular readings (like a tire temperature of -112 degrees), that Dodge Journey tire pressure sensor should be swapped out for a new one.

SOLUTION 4: STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE TO TRIGGER A DORMANT TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR

To rejuvenate a tire pressure sensor that’s not active (not due to low battery), execute these actions:

Lower the air pressure in the affected tire by roughly 15-20 Psi.

Fill that tire to 41-42 Psi (5 Psi above the suggested pressure).

Drive your Dodge Journey for approximately 15 minutes.

Once parked, bring the tire’s pressure down to the standard 36 Psi. 

🎯WHAT IT MEANS : Should the usual Dodge Journey tire pressure reset process not be effective, give this method a shot.

SOLUTION 5: UNDERSTANDING TEMPERATURES HUGE IMPACT ON TIRE PRESSURE

The influence of temperature on tire pressure is profound. Both the ambient air temperature and the tire’s direct temperature can considerably alter its pressure. A 12-degree fluctuation in the air temperature can result in a change of about 1-2 Psi in tire pressure. For instance, a 70 to 30 degree temperature variation overnight could lead to a decrease in the Dodge Journey’s air pressure by at least 4 Psi, which can set off the low pressure alert. Driving dynamics also play a part; as tires warm up during a drive, their internal pressure increases. This underscores the importance of making tire pressure adjustments when they’re cold, prior to being driven. By grasping the interplay of these temperature factors, it’s evident how the Dodge Journey’s tire pressure alert might get triggered even without any leak. 

🎯WHAT IT MEANS: Variations in tire pressure due to temperature changes are natural occurrences. The most effective way to counter this is by calibrating your Dodge Journey tire pressures when they’ve cooled down. Ideally, adjust them at the start of the day before any substantial driving, or after a very short drive. After parking, a span of roughly 3 hours is required for the tires to cool down to a “cold” status.

SOLUTION 6: A PRACTICAL APPROACH TO LOCATING TIRE LEAKS YOURSELF

Having assessed the prior 5 methods, and concluding that your tire does indeed have a leak, here’s how to pinpoint it: Required Tools : Detergent or soap, a spray container, water, and a tire air pump.

Mix water and soap in the spray container.

Pump up the tire suspected of leaking to at least 36 Psi.

Coat the tire comprehensively using the soap/water mixture.

Carefully scrutinize the Dodge Journey tire for any air bubbles forming.

🎯 WHAT IT MEANS : Trace the bubbles to their source, which is the exact location of the leak in the tire.

Common Dodge Journey Tire Pressure Questions

Tpms sensor guide for tire and wheel replacements.

When you switch the tires on your Dodge Journey, make sure to carry out the Dodge Journey TPMS reset steps. If you’re updating or changing the Dodge Journey wheels, you have the option to move the factory-installed tire pressure sensors to the replacement wheels or purchase and set up a new set of sensors tailored for the fresh wheels.

HOW CHANGING ALTITUDE IMPACTS YOUR DODGE JOURNEY'S TIRE PRESSURE

The tire pressure of a Dodge Journey isn’t just influenced by temperature; altitude plays a significant role too. As the vehicle climbs, with every increment of 1,000 feet, there’s a reduction in atmospheric pressure by roughly 0.5 psi. This leads to an effective air pressure increase in the tires. To illustrate, traveling from a beach to a height of 7,000 feet can cause the tires of your Dodge Journey to increase their pressure by an estimated 3.0 psi, even if the temperature remains constant. 

IS DRIVING THE DODGE JOURNEY WITH THE TIRE LIGHT ILLUMINATED SAFE?

It’s unsafe to continue driving your Dodge Journey when the low tire pressure warning is on. If you notice the tire alert, find a safe spot to pull over and inspect the tires. Look over each tire visually and confirm the air pressure with a manual air pressure gauge . Driving with inadequate tire pressure compromises the safety of the driver, passengers, and also affects the car’s performance and safety features. The Dodge Journey’s tire pressure warning is activated due to either a low tire pressure reading or a faulty tire pressure sensor.

HOW FAR CAN I DRIVE THE DODGE JOURNEY WITH THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT ON?

Continuing on the road without understanding the cause of the tire pressure light’s activation can increase the potential danger. There isn’t a defined limit, in terms of miles or time, for which it’s deemed okay to drive with the low tire pressure warning. The moment this alert appears, you should quickly check if it’s triggered by insufficient tire air or a defective tire pressure sensor. Driving the Dodge Journey with diminished tire pressure poses a significant risk. However, having a malfunctioning tire pressure sensor doesn’t inherently affect the car’s safety but does deprive you of precise tire pressure information on the information display.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN WHEN THE DODGE JOURNEY TIRE LIGHT IS FLASHING?

The Dodge Journey is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system that includes a self-assessment capability. When there’s a communication breakdown between the monitoring system and a tire pressure sensor, this self-assessment function comes into play, also known as a TPMS malfunction . In such scenarios, the indicator for low tire pressure will blink momentarily for around a minute and then remain illuminated. For context, the Dodge Jorney’s spare tire isn’t fitted with a tire pressure sensor. Hence, when the spare tire is in use the TPMS is unable to interface with it due to its absence, leading to a TPMS malfunction. Likewise, a weakened or expired sensor battery can induce a TPMS malfunction.

TIRE PLUG LIMITATIONS

Tire plugs are great for mending punctured tires, but it’s inadvisable to use them on tires with excessively worn-out treads or on the tire’s sidewall.

CAN TIRE SEALANTS COMPROMISE TIRE SENSOR INTEGRITY?

Applying tire sealants such as Slime or Fix-a-Flat to tires has the potential to negatively affect the electronics of a tire pressure sensor. Should you choose to use these products, ensure you get your car to an auto repair shop to have the sensor cleaned and its performance checked.

Everything in this article is applicable to all Dodge Journey models and versions made between 2008-2020.

Here's the photos if the link don't work please help me so I don't waste money. Side note it shows tire psi all the way around

Move to the correct section. Sensor batteries are probably dead. 

as jkeaton mentioned battery in the sensor is going bad,sense you dont mention air loss in the tires, any good  tire shop should be able to help you, i use discount tire stores for all my work if you have one near you try them out they are great and wil be cheaper than most other places,,, stay away from pep boys

In all 4 it's reading I have pressure on the tires see 

TPMS Life Expectancy

The estimated life expectancy of an OE TPMS sensor is 5 to 12 years, with the average lifespan being 7 years. TPMS life expectancy is directly related to the number of radio frequency transmissions the sensors make. Driving habits greatly influence the number of RF transmissions a sensor makes in its lifetime. For example: sensors usually transmit when the vehicle is stopped and transmit more often when in motion. Maintaining a constant speed, such as when you're on a highway, reduces the demand on TPMS sensors and allow the sensors to transmit less often. Drivers who often find themselves driving in start-and-stop type traffic will have a greater impact on the vehicles tire pressure monitoring sensors. Weather can also have an impact on tire pressure sensor battery life. Cold conditions allow batteries to last longer. Warmer conditions take more of a toll on TPMS battery life

since it is all of them, might be the receiver for the signals then, which will be a trip to the dealership or a garage that handles such repairs or a black section of electrical tape to cover up the warning so it doesn't bother you if you decided to go without fixing it,good luck and report back on what you find out is causing your problem

Actually, warnings can be set if pressure readings (as shown) go too high for TPMS software program. 42 psi seems a bit high, try lowering down some and see what happens.

   Sensor battery problems tend to have that wheel position drop out showing press.

Lowered it some what is the ideal wheel psi for the 17in wheels?

I set mine at 36 psi (COLD), but there is a sticker on the drivers door (or frame) that has the tire and pressure specs for you.

NOTE when changing pressures, to get accurate sensor readings you need to drive the car some for things to update and with warnings to be able to be self checked and cleared.

• Summer Solstice , 2late4u , OhareFred and 1 other

Further thoughts.....

   You say you keep getting this message. Did you just rotate tires or get new ones put on? IF so then you still need to drive the carat least 1/2 mile at 30 mph for sensors/ receivers to learn/self check and CLEAR the warning message. 

Further postings of concerns to a forum needs to have fullest info possible given for good suggestions to be made.

• 2late4u , jkeaton and larryl
• 2 weeks later...

From further experience( on saturday) I had a tire sensor replaced on our '11 DJ was there for the whole process of activating the sensor(an aftermarket brand) thru installation back on the car. Aftermarket scanner showed all good, but the EVIC message, pressure reading and warning light did NOT go away until I had driven 1.5 miles at speed. During this time, the warning light would give a single flash about every .3 miles. I believe this was from the system checking position and pressure of each tire as I stated earlier. The system of the car itself HAS to relearn by driving, and not just use of a scanner to reset lights or messages.

    So on our DJ, we now have 2 new sensors on the front tires and originals on the rears since getting the car.

Summer Solstice

Your reset experience is normal for the Journey. I've had more than 1 flat tire to test that out.

Dodge Journey Tire Pressure Light: Causes + How to Fix

The TPMS light indicates that your Dodge Journey’s tire pressure is above or below the minimum threshold set by the manufacturer.  

The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) light is the most common warning light on a modern vehicle.

If you have a TPMS warning light, your vehicle’s tire pressure must be checked.

If your Dodge Journey has a tire pressure warning light, it can only be caused by a few things. Once you very that your vehicle has the proper tire pressure, the TPMS is not a safety concern or breakdown risk.

The most common reasons the TPMS light won’t go out are over or under-inflated tires or a tire pressure sensor-related issue.

How Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems Work

There are two main types of tire pressure monitoring technology. Your Dodge Journey almost certainly has the “direct” version.

Direct Monitoring

Direct tire pressure monitoring systems come on virtually all new vehicles.

• Tire Pressure Sensor s- They monitor the tire pressure in each wheel directly. They are battery-powered, transmit data wirelessly, and usually last about ten years.
• Receiver – The sensors are wireless and transmit data to a receiver; if the data from any of these sensors indicate that your Journey’s tire pressure is too low (usually 25% under the recommended pressure), the TPMS light will come on.
• TPMS Light – Indicates that one of the tire pressure sensors has detected an improperly inflated tire or there is an issue with the TPMS system.

Indirect (a very uncommon setup)

Indirect tire pressure monitoring takes data from the wheel speed sensors. It uses this data to report if the tire pressure is low. If a tire gets too low, it’ll turn minutely faster than a full tire. The wheel speed sensors pick up on this and report it to the PCM. It’s unlikely your Dodge Journey has this system.

Dodge Journey TPMS Light: How to Turn Off

Check and fill all the tires. Once you know the tire pressure checks out, the TPMS light stops becoming a safety concern, even if it doesn’t turn off.

99% of the time, getting the tire pressure back to the recommended pressure will turn off your Journey’s TPMS light.

You should check all of your Journey’s tires simultaneously to avoid going through this process again in a few weeks (tires without leaks lose pressure at about the same rate).

Check the Tire Pressure

Check the tire pressure on all four of your vehicle’s wheels with a tire pressure gauge. Verify that they match the Dodge’s recommended psi (there’s a sticker that’ll tell you inside the driver’s door). Overinflated tires can be just as dangerous as underinflated tires.

Use the sticker on the inside of your Journey’s door. It has the manufacturer’s recommended tire PSI and size.

If the tires are underinflated, add air. If the tires are overinflated, let some air out. Most gas stations have an air compressor that you can use to add air. Some service stations will let you program the air pressure, while others only have an air hose.

If you need help filling a tire, there’s a section on inflating tires at the end of this article.

What if adding air didn’t help? 

If your Journey’s TPMS warning light stays on after you’ve verified that the tire pressure is correct, jump down to the next section.  

Dodge Journey: TPMS Light Staying On Causes

1. you haven’t driven since airing your tires.

Your Dodge Journey’s tire monitoring systems want the vehicle to move a bit before verifying the tire pressure is back within spec.

If you are reading this and haven’t moved your vehicle around, try driving it and see if the tire TPMS light turns off.

2. Incorrect Tire Pressure 

The tire pressure is below the required level: If one or more of your Journey’s tires has a pressure lower than recommended, your TPMS light will come on and stay lit until the pressure returns to the appropriate level. 

If you’ve recently added pressure to your vehicle’s tires, it could be that you put TOO MUCH air in, which will keep the TPMS light on.

3. Faulty TPMS Sensor

The TPMS is likely reporting that the tire pressure is still too low. A faulty TPMS sensor can cause your light to come on. The defective sensor may need to be replaced or reset.

Your Journey may have a “service tire pressure monitoring system” warning or a flashing TPMS light.

4. Low Battery in the TPMS Sensor

If the battery of your vehicle’s TPMS sensor is low, it can cause the light to come on. You may need to replace the battery for the light to turn off.

5. Damaged TPMS Valve Stem

The valve stem that transmits information from your tire to the TPMS receiver can become damaged or clogged, causing the light to come on. You may need to replace or clean this valve.

6. Issues After Rotating the Wheels

If you have recently rotated your Journey’s wheels, the TPMS system may need to reset.

Common Questions

Can you drive with the tpms light on.

If your tire pressure light is on even after manually checking your Journey’s tire pressure, it is entirely safe to drive with the TPMS light on. Just keep an eye on the tire pressure from time to time.

Driving with low tire pressure is not advisable. When your vehicle’s tire pressure is too low, it can cause damage to the sidewall, which can damage the integrity of the tire even after you inflate it.

Overinflation causes a tire to lose its ability to take impact from a bump. It also decreases the contact surface with the road and will show this by wearing more in the center (where it’s making contact with the road).

How do you check tire pressure?

Your Journey may give you tire pressure data. But, even if it does, it’s better to verify all four wheels with a tire pressure gauge manually.

• Unscrew the valve stem cap.
• Push the tire pressure gauge down onto the valve stem.
• Observe the tire pressure/

What should your vehicle’s tire pressure be?

A sticker inside your Journey’s driver door jamb should tell you the exact pressure for the front and rear wheels.

How long do TPMS sensors last?

The life expectancy of a TPMS sensor typically ranges from 5-10 years, depending on the type of sensor and the environment it is exposed to.  

If one of the tire pressure sensors becomes damaged or its battery runs out of power before its expected lifespan, it can cause the TPMS light to come on in your vehicle’s dashboard.

Why is my TPMS light blinking?

The tire pressure light blinks to warn you that there is an issue with the tire pressure sensor (either defective or has a low battery) or the receiver is malfunctioning.

Most of the time, the TPMS will go off if you add air to your Dodge Journey’s tires. If it doesn’t go off, there is likely an issue with one of the wheel pressure sensors.

Dodge Journey: How To Reset The TPMS

If the Tire Pressure Management System in the Dodge Journey is not working properly, you may have to reset the system. Follow these steps to re-initialize the TPMS.

The light indicator is a notification to warn you of significantly low air pressure or high-pressure loss in your tires and is NOT to be ignored, as low pressure affects the vehicle’s overall performance, such as: 

• How the vehicle drives
• Increases the need for fuel
• Tire failure

To Reset the Warning Light Perform the following steps :

Low Tire Pressure

New or repaired tire, new sensor or other malfunction, 2009 – 2023 models.

• When the Tire Pressure Monitoring System warning turns on, check which tire is low with a Pressure Gauge .
• Inflate the low tire until it is at the  recommended PSI .
• Drive the vehicle for 20 minutes above 15 mph . The TPMS system will reset automatically.
• Place the  new or repaired tire(s) on the vehicle.
• Make sure the tire is at the  recommended PSI .
• Make sure all tires are at the  recommended PSI .
• Drive the vehicle  for 20 minutes above 15 mph . The TPMS system will reset automatically.
• The TPMS warning light on your Dodge Journey should be cleared.

What if the light doesn’t turn off?

If the light remains illuminated, it might be because the outdoor temperature affects how fast the air in the tires will adjust to the right temperature. This could take minutes or a day or two, so be patient and give the tires time to adjust. If the tire pressure warning light stays illuminated past a week, you will need to have your vehicle serviced. There could possibly be a sensor issue or a tire puncture. 

NOTE : If you are unable to Reset the Tire Pressure Warning Light on the first try, REPEAT the steps. If you are still unsuccessful, contact the dealership for assistance or consult your vehicle user’s manual.

Dodge Journey low tire pressure warning light causes, how to reset

Dodge Journey is equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) for the purpose of warning the driver when one or more of the tires are significantly under-inflated, creating a potentially unsafe driving condition. In this article we discuss the reasons for the amber colored TPMS warning light in Journey, and how you can reset it.

The TPMS warning light illuminates in Dodge Journey when air pressure is low in one or more of the tires, battery has depleted in a pressure sensor, TPMS receiver module has malfunctioned, or a pressure sensor has been damaged.

Low tire pressure

Reinflate the tires

Reinflate all the tires of your Journey to the manufacturer specified air pressure, which is mentioned on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label usually located on the B-pillar or the edge of the driver door. If you can’t find the label, check the size of your tire which is mentioned on the sidewall of the tire, and match it to the tire pressure information shown below.

• 225/55R19 99H: 36 psi
• 225/65R17 102H: 36 psi
• P225/65R17 100H: 36 psi

Resetting the TPMS warning light

After you have inflated all the tires to the correct air pressure, the TPMS warning light will turn off automatically when the vehicle is driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). Dodge Journey uses the direct method for monitoring tire pressure, which means a pressure sensor actively records the internal pressure and air temperature of the tire on each wheel. There is no need to reinitialize the TPMS system in order to reset the warning light. There is no reset button like the one you see in vehicles with indirect TPMS system which uses ABS sensors to detect low tire pressure. If the low tire pressure light does not turn off automatically after reinflating the tires in your Journey, increase the tire pressure by 5 psi on top of the factory recommended value, and drive your vehicle for at least 10 miles (16 km). After the TPMS warning light turns off, and the vehicle has been parked for a few hours, reduce the tire pressure to the factory recommended value.

Chilly weather can turn on low tire pressure light in Journey

Cold weather is one of the most common cause for low tire pressure warning light in Dodge Journey. When analyzing WheelsJoint’s statistical data, it has been observed that there is sharp rise in the number of searches for TPMS warning light causes at the start of every winter season, about three times higher as compared to mid summer season.

The air, like most other substances, expands when heated and contracts when cooled. So when the weather gets colder, the tire pressure decreases, which could trigger TPMS warning light in Journey. The tire pressure will vary with temperature by about 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (6.5°C).

Inflate tires when cold

Tire pressure in Journey should always be set based on cold inflation tire pressure. This is defined as the tire pressure after the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after a three-hour period.

Do not adjust tire pressure when hot

The tires on your Journey can get around 50 degrees hotter than the outside temperature when you’re driving, which increases the tire pressure by about 4 psi – this is normal and there should be no adjustment for this increased pressure.

Does altitude affect tire pressure?

Yes, altitude can change tire pressure values, but it is negligible and not a cause for concern. If you drive your Journey from sea level to Mount Evans Scenic Byway in Colorado which is the highest paved road in North America at the altitude of 14,130 feet (4,307 m), the tire pressure should theoretically increase by approximately 6 psi. But, the decrease in ambient temperature at higher elevation contracts the air in tires and compensates for any altitude pressure changes.

Is it safe to drive Journey with low tire pressure?

The driving characteristics of Journey change even if the air pressure is 5 psi less than manufacturer’s recommended value: the braking distance can be longer, cornering worse, and at particularly high speeds there is even a risk that the tire will burst. Low tire pressure also increases tire wear, and the higher rolling resistance of the tire means higher fuel consumption. So it is recommended to reinflate the tires to the correct pressure as soon as possible.

Dead battery in a tire pressure sensor

Each tire pressure sensor in Journey is powered by a built-in lithium-ion battery. When the battery is depleted, the sensor stops transmitting tire pressure information to the receiver module. When this happens, the TPMS warning light will flash every time the engine is started, and will remain illuminated until you turn off the vehicle.

How long do the pressure sensor batteries last?

The tire pressure sensor batteries usually last anywhere from 5 to 10 years in Journey. When the battery is depleted, you must replace the sensor itself, as the battery is sealed into the sensor unit and is non-replaceable.

Identifying a faulty pressure sensor

The most reliable method for detecting a faulty tire pressure sensor or a sensor with dead battery is by testing each sensor with a scan tool. For example, MaxiTPMS TS408 is commonly used for diagnosing and programming tire pressure sensors. A sensor that is not detectable by the scanner is most likely defective and should be replaced with a new one.

If you don’t want to spend over a hundred bucks on a scanner, then head over to any reputable tire shop and perform a TPMS diagnostic scan of your Journey. Some shops like Discount Tire and Pep Boys offer free of charge TPMS diagnostic services.

Installed new tires?

If a pressure sensor stopped responding after you installed new tires on your Journey, it is possible the sensor got damaged during tire installation. These sensors are quite sensitive, and can be easily damaged if utmost care is not taken while changing tires.

Dodge Journey TPMS user guide

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) will warn the driver of a low tire pressure based on the vehicle recommended cold placard pressure.

The TPMS will warn the driver of a low tire pressure if the tire pressure falls below the low-pressure warning limit for any reason, including low temperature effects and natural pressure loss through the tire.

The TPMS will continue to warn the driver of low tire pressure as long as the condition exists, and will not turn off until the tire pressure is at or above the recommended cold placard pressure. Once the low tire pressure warning (TPMS Warning Light) illuminates, you must increase the tire pressure to the recommended cold placard pressure in order for the TPMS Warning Light to turn off.

The system will automatically update and the TPMS Warning Light will turn off once the system receives the updated tire pressures. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive this information.

When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may need to be increased up to an additional 4 psi (28 kPa) above the recommended cold placard pressure in order to turn the TPMS Warning Light off.

For example, your vehicle may have a recommended cold (parked for more than three hours) placard pressure of 30 psi (207 kPa). If the ambient temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the measured tire pressure is 27 psi (186 kPa), a temperature drop to 20°F (-7°C) will decrease the tire pressure to approximately 23 psi (158 kPa). This tire pressure is sufficiently low enough to turn on the TPMS Warning Light. Driving the vehicle may cause the tire pressure to rise to approximately 27 psi (186 kPa), but the TPMS Warning Light will still be on. In this situation, the TPMS Warning Light will turn off only after the tires are inflated to the vehicle’s recommended cold placard pressure value.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System Low Pressure Warnings

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Warning Light will illuminate in the instrument cluster and a chime will sound when tire pressure is low in one or more of the four active road tires. In addition, the instrument cluster will display an “Inflate to XX” message and a graphic showing the pressure values of each tire with the low tire pressure values shown in a different color.

Should this occur, you should stop as soon as possible and inflate the tires with a low pressure condition (those shown in a different color in the instrument cluster graphic) to the vehicle’s recommended cold placard pressure inflation value as shown in the “Inflate to XX” message. Once the system receives the updated tire pressures, the system will automatically update, the graphic display in the instrument cluster will change color back to the original color, and the TPMS Warning Light will turn off. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive this information.

Service Tire Pressure System Warning

If a system fault is detected, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on solid. The system fault will also sound a chime. In addition, the instrument cluster will display a “Service Tire Pressure System” message for a minimum of five seconds and then display dashes (- -) in place of the pressure value to indicate which sensor is not being received.

If the ignition switch is cycled, this sequence will repeat, providing the system fault still exists. If the system fault no longer exists, the TPMS Warning Light will no longer flash, and the “Service Tire Pressure System” message will no longer display, and a pressure value will display in place of the dashes. A system fault can occur due to any of the following:

• Signal interference due to electronic devices or driving next to facilities emitting the same radio frequencies as the TPMS sensors.
• Accumulation of snow or ice around the wheels or wheel housings.
• Using tire chains on the vehicle.
• Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPMS sensors.

Vehicles With Compact Spare

• The compact spare tire or non-matching full size does not have a Tire Pressure Monitoring System sensor. Therefore, the TPMS will not monitor the pressure in the compact or non-matching full size spare tire.
• If you install the compact or non-matching full size spare tire in place of a road tire that has a pressure below the low-pressure warning limit, upon the next ignition key cycle, the TPMS Warning Light will remain on and a chime will sound. In addition, the graphic in the instrument cluster will still display a different color pressure value and an “Inflate to XX” message.
• After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h), the TPMS Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on solid. In addition, the instrument cluster will display a “Service Tire Pressure System” message for five seconds and then display dashes (- -) in place of the pressure value.
• For each subsequent ignition key cycle, a chime will sound, the TPMS Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on solid, and the instrument cluster will display a “Service Tire Pressure System” message for five seconds and then display dashes (- -) in place of the pressure value.
• Once you repair or replace the original road tire and reinstall it on the vehicle in place of the compact spare or non-matching full size, the TPMS will update automatically. In addition, the TPMS Warning Light will turn off and the graphic in the instrument cluster will display a new pressure value instead of dashes (- -), as long as no tire pressure is below the low-pressure warning limit in any of the four active road tires. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive this information.

Premium System

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) uses wireless technology with wheel rim mounted electronic sensors to monitor tire pressure levels. Sensors, mounted to each wheel as part of the valve stem, transmit tire pressure readings to the receiver module.

• The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable system operation or sensor damage may result when using replacement equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style. The TPMS sensor is not designed for use on aftermarket wheels and may contribute to a poor overall system performance or sensor damage. Customers are encouraged to use OEM wheels to ensure proper TPMS feature operation.
• Using aftermarket tire sealants may cause the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensor to become inoperable. After using an aftermarket tire sealant it is recommended that you take your vehicle to your authorized dealer to have your sensor function checked.
• After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure always reinstall the valve stem cap. This will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could damage the TPMS sensor.
• The TPMS is not intended to replace normal tire care and maintenance or to provide warning of a tire failure or condition.
• The TPMS should not be used as a tire pressure gauge while adjusting your tire pressure.
• Driving on a significantly underinflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Underinflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
• The TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure using an accurate tire pressure gauge, even if underinflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS Warning Light.
• Seasonal temperature changes will affect tire pressure, and the TPMS will monitor the actual tire pressure in the tire.

TPMS Deactivation — If Equipped

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) can be deactivated if replacing all four wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with wheel and tire assemblies that do not have TPMS sensors, such as when installing winter wheel and tire assemblies on your vehicle.

To deactivate the TPMS, first replace all four wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with tires not equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensors. Then, drive the vehicle for 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). The TPMS will chime, the TPMS Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on. The instrument cluster will display the “Service Tire Pressure System” message and then display dashes (–) in place of the pressure values.

Beginning with the next ignition cycle, the TPMS will no longer chime or display the “Service Tire Pressure System” message in the instrument cluster but dashes (–) will remain in place of the pressure values.

To reactivate the TPMS, replace all four wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with tires equipped with TPMS sensors. Then, drive the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). The TPMS will chime, the TPMS Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then turn off. The instrument cluster will display the “Service Tire Pressure System” message and then display pressure values in place of the dashes. On the next ignition cycle the “Service Tire Pressure System” message will no longer be displayed as long as no system fault exists.

Reset the entire system

If the low tire pressure warning light won’t turn off due to a glitch in the tire pressure monitoring system, it may be possible to reset the TPMS system by resetting all on-board computers in your Journey. This method should only be considered as a last resort, when all else fails.

You can reboot all the on-board computers by disconnecting the main 12 volt battery for a few minutes. Remove the cable from the negative terminal of the battery first, then from the positive terminal. With the battery disconnected, press the horn button a few times and turn on the headlights to drain out all the residual electricity from the system. After about 15 minutes, reconnect the battery in reverse order: positive cable first, then negative cable.

Tire pressure keeps getting low

If the TPMS warning light turns on frequently in your Journey, and the tire pressure is also decreasing after you have reinflated the tires, there may be an air leak. One or more of the tires may have been punctured by an external object, or the air may be leaking from a defective value stem.

Use OBD2 scanner for diagnosis

Since Dodge Journey is equipped with on-board diagnostics (OBD), a fault diagnosis can provide initial indications of where the malfunction is located. But when it comes to TPMS, a basic code reader will not suffice. You will need an advanced scanner to monitor TPMS data or read TPMS codes.

BlueDriver is a commonly used scanner by DIYers that can read TPMS codes for most vehicles and isn’t too expensive – costs about a hundred bucks. You can also clear the TPMS fault codes with this device which will turn off the warning light, but the light may come back on if the on-board diagnostic system detects a fault again.

What Does “Service Tire Monitor System” Mean?

• Updated: February 12, 2023

It doesn’t matter how old a car is, there’s always the chance of seeing a warning light or message on the dashboard or infotainment system. One such message that happens on vehicles of all ages is the Service Tire Monitor System alert. What does this warning mean, what caused it and how can you fix it?

In this guide, we answer all of those questions surrounding your tire monitoring system. You will learn what the system is for and what causes a malfunction.

Additionally, there are step-by-step instructions showing what to do when the message comes on. Furthermore, we also give you some additional answers to questions you’ve been pondering. 

What Does Service Tire Monitor System Mean?

The Service Tire Monitor System message indicates something is wrong with the tire pressure monitoring equipment. It’s usually a separate warning from the normal TPMS message. When this message alerts you, you will likely also see the low tire pressure light on the dashboard and the warning message on the infotainment system. 

If there’s just a malfunction due to low tire pressure , you may not see this message. For the most part, when the issue is tire pressure related, the alert on new cars will include information about which tire is low, so you can fill it up.

Instead, this warning is trying to show you that the equipment for the TPMS isn’t working. You will often find the Service Tire Monitor System message in GM, Buick, and Chevy vehicles.

What Is A Tire Monitor System?

The Tire Monitor System is the TPMS equipment. With this feature, the air pressure in all of the tires is being measured to ensure safety. When a tire gets too low, the alert goes off so you can fill it up with air. 

With most of the newer models, the TPMS light would come on and the infotainment system would tell you which tire is low. Because of the alert, drivers no longer have to rely on manually checking tire pressures regularly. 

The system is also advanced enough to tell you when something is wrong with the sensors or calibration. In these cases, the TPMS light might come on, but so will a warning telling you to service the tire monitor system. 

Causes Of Service Tire Monitor System Message

The Service Tire Monitor System message is usually caused by a faulty component within the TPMS system, such as a bad TPMS sensor, low battery, or faulty calibration or programming. However, it could potentially also be caused by low tire pressure.

Here are a few things that could cause the Service Tire Monitor System message:

1. Tire Pressure Sensor Lost Memory

On the tire pressure monitors, there’s a lithium-ion battery that keeps it powered up. These batteries tend to last for around five years under normal use. They can fail prematurely if they have been exposed to extreme weather or conditions. 

If the battery dies, the sensor stops communicating with the PCM . Because there’s no data being relayed, the service message pops up until you put in a new battery. 

2. Faulty Tire Pressure Sensor

On every tire, there’s a TPMS sensor with a radio signal attached. This tire sensor monitors air pressure and lets you know if it gets low. These sensors are subject to a lot of wear simply because of how close to the road they are.

If the sensor gets contaminated with debris, dirt or too much water, it can fail. Sensors can also fail because of too much sealant around the stem valves. Additionally, corrosion has been known to take some out. 

With the sensor out of commission, the PCM can’t read the tire pressure. Therefore, an alert is sent out to tell you there’s a problem.

3. Changed Wheels Without Reset

If you swap out the wheels on your car, the new sensors must be calibrated. This service requires a special TPMS tool , making it difficult for many people to do at home without a workaround method.

Without this calibration, you will get the Service Tire Monitor System message. During a reset, the sensors relearn the processes and connect with the computer. 

4. Tire Pressure Sensor Not Reset

The sensors need to be recalibrated any time they are changed. This doesn’t just occur when you change out the wheels but also when a sensor must be replaced.

If you swapped out the sensor but didn’t do the reset, the message is going to appear. You can use a TPMS tool to recalibrate it or several workaround tactics. 

5. Low Tire Pressure

When tire pressures get low, it’s common to see the TPMS light on the dashboard. In many cases, the system will also tell you which tire is low, so you can resolve the problem.

While it’s rare to see the Service Tire Monitor System with a low tire, it’s not impossible. There could be a malfunction causing the service message to alert you instead of just the low tire information. Your tire pressures should be checked regularly anyway, so now seems like a good time. 

6. Bad Car Battery

All of the electronics are running through the power supplied by the car battery. If there’s a problem with the car battery, these high-tech sensors can fail to read. The PCM will think that something has happened with the sensor and send out an alert.

The good news is that when the battery is to blame, there are normally other signs of a problem. After all, the battery dying normally causes issues with everything from starting the car to running the lights. 

How To Fix The Service Tire Monitor System Message

To fix the Service Tire Monitor System message, you need to diagnose what’s causing this warning light with an OBD2 scanner. You also want to ensure that the tire pressure is correct and reset the TPMS system.

In some cases, you will be able to repair the Service Tire Monitor System message in your home garage without any special tools. We outline a few possible solutions that can help you out. 

1. Correct The Tire Pressure

Just in case the warning is on because of low tire pressures, you should start here. You can verify the tire pressures with your home gauge. Match up the pressure you see with the data on the driver’s side door jamb. 

If you verified that the tire pressures are normal and the light remains on, you know this isn’t the problem. You will want to move on to the next steps. 

2. Reset Tire Pressure Light

If you believe that the sensors just need to be reset, you have multiple options. A reset is necessary any time that the sensors are replaced, new tires are installed or service has been performed. Look in the service manual to see the appropriate procedure for your vehicle.

You can have the reset done with a TPMS tool. There are also some cars with a button for resetting or you may be able to drive for a short time until it resets.

3. Read Trouble Codes

You can try to read trouble codes with your OBD-II scanner . Not all scanners are going to read these codes, but you should have success if your diagnostic tool is advanced.

You may have other lights on the dashboard as well that the code scanner will help you understand. With the free trouble code listing at MechanicBase, you can figure out what’s wrong with ease. 

4. Reprogram Tire Pressure Sensors

After the sensors are replaced, a reprogramming is required. The sensors need to learn the parameters used by the PCM. 

With a TPMS tool, you can recalibrate the sensors. If you don’t have this tool, most tire shops will handle the reprogram in a matter of minutes. 

5. Replace The Car Battery

If the issue seems to be related to power, you may be having trouble with the battery. Run a voltage check on the battery to see if it’s charged. If you don’t know how to do this, you can take the battery to most auto part stores for a free check. Once the battery starts to fail, it’s best to replace it. 

Additionally, corrosion on the battery terminals can disrupt the power supply. If you see corrosion, use a baking soda and water mixture to clean it off. Reconnect the battery and see if it works better. 

6. Contact A Professional

There aren’t too many more issues that could be occurring with the Service Tire Monitor System message. Most likely, you’ve figured out the problem by now. If you haven’t, there could be a deeper fault with the electrical system.

Some issues can be troublesome to diagnose and repair. If it feels like the issue is over your head, go ahead and visit your local auto repair shop instead. After all, you don’t want to continue driving with this message on the dashboard. 

How Do You Fix A Service Tire Monitor System Message?

You can fill up the car tires if they are low. Aside from that, you may need to replace a sensor or have it reset. The sensor may also need to be recalibrated. In rare occurrences, the car battery could be causing the issue, requiring a replacement. After a complete diagnosis, you should know how to proceed. 

Can You Drive With A Service Tire Monitor System Message?

If the tire pressures are normal, there’s nothing stopping you from driving with the message on. However, you may not know when a tire does have low pressure with this message already lit. You could be driving with pressures that are at dangerous levels. For that reason, it’s best to have it fixed right away. 

How Much Does It Cost To Fix A Service Tire Monitor System Message?

If you need to fill up a tire, you can use your air compressor and do the job for free. Resetting and reprogramming the sensors doesn’t cost a lot either. Most tire shops will also replace a sensor for between $40 and $75. The highest cost fix might be to get a new battery, costing around $100 to $450, depending on what type of car you drive. 

How Long Does A Tire Pressure Monitoring System Last?

The batteries on the tire pressure monitoring sensors tend to last around five years. Aside from the batteries, the sensors can also fail at times. Because of where the sensors are located, it’s possible for dirt and grime to build up and cause trouble. 

The Service Tire Monitor System comes on the dash and infotainment system when the TPMS malfunctions. It could be caused by low tire pressure, a malfunctioning sensor, a needed reset or recalibration, plus a dying car battery. Start by checking tire pressures to see what’s going on.

Beyond that, you must perform your own diagnosis to see what might have failed. Most fixes are simple enough to perform at home, so there’s not a lot of cost involved. While this problem might not be as critical as some of the other messages that come on the dashboard, it should never be ignored.

Dodge Journey: TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM (TPMS)

The tire pressure will vary with temperature by about 1 psi (6.9 kPa) for every 12°F (6.5°C). This means that when the outside temperature decreases, the tire pressure will decrease. Tire pressure should always be set based on cold inflation tire pressure. This is defined as the tire pressure after the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after a three hour period. The cold tire inflation pressure must not exceed the maximum inflation pressure molded into the tire sidewall. Refer to “Tires – General Information” in “Starting and Operating” for information on how to properly inflate the vehicle’s tires. The tire pressure will also increase as the vehicle is driven. This is normal and there should be no adjustment for this increased pressure.

For example, your vehicle may have a recommended cold (parked for more than three hours) placard pressure of 33 psi (227 kPa). If the ambient temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the measured tire pressure is 28 psi (193 kPa), a temperature drop to 20°F (-7°C) will decrease the tire pressure to approximately 24 psi (165 kPa). This tire pressure is low enough to turn ON the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale light. Driving the vehicle may cause the tire pressure to rise to approximately 28 psi (193 kPa), but the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale light will still be on. In this situation, the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale light will turn off only after the tires are inflated to the vehicle’s recommended cold placard pressure value.

• The TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure using an accurate tire pressure gauge, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale light.

• Seasonal temperature changes will affect tire pressure, and the TPMS will monitor the actual tire pressure in the tire.

• Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale light.

5. Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPMS sensors.

5. Once you repair or replace the original road tire and reinstall it on the vehicle in place of the compact spare, the TPMS will update automatically and the TPMS Telltale light will turn off, as long as no tire pressure is below the low-pressure warning limit in any of the four active road tires. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (25 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive this information.

The TPMS consists of the following components: • Receiver module . • Four Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors . • Three Trigger modules (mounted in three of the four wheel-wells) . • Various Tire Pressure Monitoring System messages, which display in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) . • Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale light .

Should this occur, you should stop as soon as possible and inflate the tires with low pressure (those flashing in the EVIC graphic) to the vehicle’s recommended cold placard pressure value. Once the system receives the updated tire pressures, the system will automatically update, the graphic display in the EVIC will stop flashing, and the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale light will turn off. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (25 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive this information.

When a system fault is detected, the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on solid. The system fault will also sound a chime. In addition, the EVIC will display a CHECK TPM SYSTEM message for three seconds and then display dashes (- -) in place of the pressure value to indicate which sensor is not being received.

5. Once you repair or replace the original road tire and reinstall it on the vehicle in place of the compact spare, the TPMS will update automatically. In addition, the TPMS Telltale light will turn off and the graphic in the EVIC will display a new pressure value instead of dashes (- -), as long as no tire pressure is below the low-pressure warning limit in any of the four active road tires. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (25 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive this information.

Service reqired tire presure system? How do I reset

• Add to quote

Have a 2014 charger rt Got the message Service required tire pressure system, I have the original wheels, they all have sensors and when I check the tire pressure in the menu the reading is correct on all 4 tires (even changed the pressure to check and they all adapted). Can I reset the system somehow to kill this message? Is it just me having bad luck or is there a lot of shit going on with the 11-14 chargers? Have had a 07 and 08 before and never any problems but with this one its one thing after the other...  

Andreas SRT-8 said: the reading is correct on all 4 tires Click to expand...

33 psi, live in Sweden and temperatures are dropping but still above freezing, even if pressure to low it should just warn or say what tire the pressure is too low on not tell to service the system?  

If he has a full size spare, could it be low and causing the message?  

nah its one of those worthless small spares, doubt that it has a sensor...  

I have a 2012...I just blew a tire last Saturday...got it fixed on Tuesday. I received the same message and thought what luck. After taking the donut off and putting the tire back on....I would say it took about 45min of driving before the message went away and reset.  

I would try a full reset to the system by disconnecting the battery for a couple of minutes and see if that clears the fault. It's likely that the system saw a pressure change with the temperature change and it tripped the system warning. On my car, I had the same thing happen a couple of weeks ago on a cold morning when the car sensed that the tire pressure had reduced by 5 psi from that last time it was turned of and the next time I started it. I had to get air and increase the tire pressure by 3 psi before the warning would clear even though they were all reading at 32 psi by the time I went to do it. The system relies on last shut down and new start pressures to set and clear warnings. If you get air with the car running, sometimes it won't clear the warning. It wants the car to be off when you put air in the tires.  

TPM systems consist of tire pressure monitoring sensors attached to each road wheel through the valve stem mounting hole and a TPM module. The receiver circuit for the TPM system is mounted in the right rear wheel well. The TPM module is fixed to a metal bracket mounted to the inner wheel well located behind the splash shield. The TPM module decodes the RF signals transmitted by each of the vehicle’s tire pressure sensors. The decoded information is used to determine if "warning" or "fault" conditions exist within the TPM system. There's a difference between a warning message (tire air pressure) and a system failure message. Have you plugged a OBD2/CAN scanner into the OBD2 port to see what DTCs are being logged? .  

I plugged it in to a scanner and it couldn't find any error codes related to the tpms but I am going to a dealership next week and have them hook it up to a chrysler computer to program a key, will see if they come up with something. Going to try to unplug the battery tomorrow and see if that helps clearing it. The strange thing is that it is still reading the tire pressure correctly so the car thinks there is something wrong but its no t:serious:  

Any updates to this? I've having the same problem on my 2011, and has been there for the last 6 months. Pressures reading fine, Just a constant TPMS light and "Service Tire Pressure Monitor System" error message on every startup.  

The battery is going out in one or more of your TMPS sensors-they only last so long (6-7 years)-get new sensors installed when it's time for new tires.

Your vehicle's tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) sensors are designed to alert you of any problems with your tire pressure level. These sensors read the air pressure inside each tire and send information to the TPMS module or body control module in the vehicle. Depending on the vehicle, the module may send a signal to a tire pressure warning light on the dash or may display individual tire pressures on your instrument cluster if your sensors recognize low or high-pressure levels in one or more of your tires. TPMS sensors are waterproof, battery-powered components that are either mounted on the valve stem of each tire or located on a band on the wheel inside the tire. Because these sensors are powered by an internal battery, they can wear out or die over time, causing inaccurate tire pressure readings or a lack of signal sent to the TPMS module. If you receive a low tire pressure alert, we recommend reading your tire pressure with a tire pressure gauge before filling it with air. If your tire gauge reads the correct pressure level, you may have a malfunctioning TPMS sensor in that tire. Sensors can also be damaged when rotating, removing, or replacing your tire, or the integral valve stem can be broken if it is bent when adding air to the tire. If you receive a TPMS alert and aren't sure what may be causing it, or are looking for a few helpful tire pressure tips, visit our How-To Hub to learn more about your vehicle's tire pressure monitoring system , appropriate tire pressure , and proper tire inspection . No matter whether you need to replace the TPMS sensor in your tire, or if you need to replace the sensors in all four, O'Reilly Auto Parts carries TPMS sensors for most vehicles.
