Does the Tire Pressure Monitoring System Require Battery Replacement?
1 Answers
Tire pressure monitoring systems do require battery replacement. Without replacing the batteries, the system cannot function properly, failing to achieve its monitoring purpose. Below is an introduction to tire pressure monitors: 1. Indirect Tire Pressure Monitoring: Abbreviated as WSB, this system determines which tire has abnormal pressure by comparing the rotational speeds of the tires. It primarily relies on the vehicle's ABS system for sensing. The advantage is lower cost, while the disadvantages include the inability to accurately read the pressure of each tire and relatively poor accuracy. 2. Direct Tire Pressure Monitoring: This system allows for direct observation of the instantaneous pressure of each tire, providing very accurate readings. However, such systems are more expensive. They work by using wireless transmitters installed in the tires to send pressure information directly from inside the tire to a central receiver module. The advantages are accuracy and directness, while the disadvantage is higher cost. 3. Hybrid Tire Pressure Monitoring: This system combines the technologies of the two types mentioned above. Currently, this type of system is quite popular. Its advantage is overcoming the shortcomings of indirect monitoring, but the disadvantage is that it cannot directly read the instantaneous tire pressure.
