Where is the tire pressure monitoring displayed on the 2021 Fit?
1 Answers
2021 Fit's tire pressure monitoring is displayed on the vehicle's dashboard. There are three common types of tire pressure monitoring methods: Direct tire pressure monitoring: The direct tire pressure monitoring device uses pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure the tire's air pressure. It uses a wireless transmitter to send the pressure information from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the tire pressure data for each tire. When the tire pressure is too low or there is a leak, the system will automatically issue an alert. Indirect tire pressure monitoring: When the pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight causes 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 speed between the tires, the system monitors the tire pressure. The indirect tire pressure alert system essentially relies on calculating the tire's rolling radius to monitor the pressure. Introduction to the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): It combines the advantages of the two systems mentioned above. Direct sensors are installed in two diagonally opposite tires, and a 4-wheel indirect system is also equipped. Compared to using only a direct system, this hybrid system can reduce costs and overcome the limitation of the indirect system, which cannot detect when multiple tires simultaneously have low pressure. However, it still cannot provide real-time data on the actual pressure in all four tires like a direct system.
