What does TPWS fault mean?
1 Answers
TPWS fault refers to the need for tire pressure calibration. Vehicles displaying this fault code are equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system, which can monitor the car's tires in real time and promptly alert for underinflated, overinflated, or leaking tires to ensure driving safety. More details are as follows: 1. Tire pressure monitoring systems can be divided into two types: one is the indirect tire pressure monitoring system, which determines tire abnormalities by detecting differences in tire rotation speed; 2. The other is the direct tire pressure monitoring system, which installs four tire pressure monitoring sensors inside the tires to automatically monitor tire pressure and temperature in real time, whether the car is stationary or in motion, and provides timely alerts for high pressure, low pressure, or high temperature in the tires to prevent traffic accidents caused by tire failures, ensuring driving safety.
