How to Check Tire Pressure Monitoring on Mazda3 Zhiga?
1 Answers
The Mazda3 Zhiga version does not come with a tire pressure monitoring system. However, you can install an aftermarket tire pressure monitoring system and then use either direct or indirect tire pressure monitoring to read the tire pressure data. Tire pressure monitoring automatically checks the tire pressure in real-time while driving and alerts the driver in case of tire leaks or low pressure to ensure driving safety. There are three common types of tire pressure monitoring: Direct Tire Pressure Monitoring: Direct tire pressure monitoring devices use pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure the tire pressure. The pressure information is transmitted wirelessly from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the pressure data for each tire. The system automatically alerts the driver if the tire pressure is too low or if there is a leak. Indirect Tire Pressure Monitoring: When the pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the rolling radius of that tire to become smaller, making it rotate faster than the other wheels. By comparing the differences in rotational speed between tires, the system monitors tire pressure. Indirect tire pressure monitoring systems essentially rely on calculating the rolling radius of the tires to monitor pressure. Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Introduction: This system combines the advantages of both direct and indirect systems. It equips direct sensors in two diagonally opposite tires and includes a 4-wheel indirect system. Compared to using only direct systems, this hybrid system reduces costs and overcomes the limitation of indirect systems, which cannot detect low pressure in multiple tires simultaneously. However, it still cannot provide real-time pressure data for all four tires as effectively as a full direct system.
