What are the reasons for not being able to detect tire pressure?
2 Answers
Tire pressure cannot be detected for the following reasons: 1. The battery of the tire pressure monitoring module is depleted: In this case, generally, the entire set of tire pressure monitoring modules needs to be replaced. 2. There is something blocking the inspection port of the tire pressure monitoring module: The module cannot perform detection, and simply removing the obstruction will suffice. 3. The pairing between the tire pressure monitoring module and your vehicle model has failed: Re-pairing is required. Some vehicle models can complete this process on their own, but most models require professional pairing at a 4S shop. 4. The tire pressure monitoring module is damaged: Replace it with a new module.
Having driven for many years, I find it most annoying when the tire pressure can't be monitored, which is usually caused by several issues. First, the tire pressure sensor might be broken or out of battery. These little devices are installed inside the tires, and their batteries can deplete over time, or they may short-circuit in rainy weather. Second, the system itself could be faulty, such as issues with the vehicle's receiver module or computer controller, leading to signal loss. Third, external interference, like strong Wi-Fi or radio signals in busy urban areas, can disrupt wireless transmission. Fourth, tampering with the tires, such as forgetting to recalibrate the system after a tire change, can misalign the sensors. Fifth, low vehicle battery or software bugs, especially in older cars, can also cause this problem. To fix it, first check if there's an abnormal tire pressure warning symbol and try restarting the car. If that doesn't work, head to a repair shop immediately to avoid the risk of a blowout. Regularly maintain the sensors and use specialized tools to check battery life to save yourself a lot of trouble.
