Vehicles With Matching Full Size Spare
The matching full size spare wheel and tire assembly
has a TPM sensor that can be monitored by the TPMS.
If you install the full size spare in place of a road tire
that has a pressure below the low-pressure warning
limit, upon the next ignition switch cycle, a chime will
sound and the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale
Light” will turn ON. In addition, the EVIC/DID will
display a “LOW TIRE” message and a graphic show-
ing the low tire pressure value in a different color. An
Inflate to XX message will also be displayed.
After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above
15 mph (25 km/h) the “Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light” will turn OFF and the pressure value
will be updated and return to it’s original color, as long
as no tire pressure is below the low-pressure warning
limit in any of the four active road tires.
Vehicles With Non Matching Full Size Spare Or Com-
pact Spare
The non matching full size spare or compact spare tire
does not have a TPM sensor. Therefore, the TPMS will
not monitor the pressure in the non matching full size
spare or compact spare tire.
If you install the non matching full size spare or
compact spare tire in place of a road tire that has a
pressure below the low-pressure warning limit, upon
the next ignition switch cycle, the TPM Telltale Light
and a “LOW TIRE” message will remain ON and a
chime will sound. In addition, the graphic in the
EVIC/DID will still display a flashing pressure value
or a pressure value in a different color.
After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above
15 mph (24 km/h), the TPM Telltale Light will flash on
and off for 75 seconds and then remain on solid. In
addition, the EVIC/DID will display a SERVICE TPM
