What to Do with Tire Pressure Monitoring When Changing Wheels?
1 Answers
When changing wheels, the handling methods for tire pressure monitoring are as follows: 1. For direct tire pressure monitoring systems, the pressure sensors should be removed and reinstalled on the new wheels. 2. Indirect tire pressure monitoring systems can have the wheels replaced directly without any impact. 3. Composite TPMS is similar to direct tire pressure monitoring systems, requiring the removal of corresponding accessories from the wheels. Below are detailed introductions to the three types of tire pressure monitoring systems: 1. Direct Tire Pressure Monitoring: Direct tire pressure monitoring devices use pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure the tire's air pressure. Wireless transmitters send the pressure information from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the tire pressure data for each tire. The system automatically alerts when the tire pressure is too low or there is a leak. 2. Indirect Tire Pressure Monitoring: The working principle of indirect tire pressure monitoring is that when the pressure of a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight will cause the rolling radius of that wheel to become smaller, resulting in a faster rotation speed compared to other wheels. By comparing the differences in rotation speeds between tires, the purpose of monitoring tire pressure is achieved. 3. Composite TPMS: It combines the advantages of the two systems mentioned above, equipping direct sensors in two diagonally opposite tires and a 4-wheel indirect system.
