Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
REFER to: Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - System Operation and Component Description .
Communication between the RTM and the TPMS sensors can be interrupted by RFI, which causes intermittent issues that are not vehicle concerns. RFI is generated by electrical motors and appliance operation, cellular telephones, remote transmitters, power inverters and portable entertainment equipment.
DTC Fault Trigger Conditions
| DTC | Description | Fault Trigger Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| B124D:02 | Tire Pressure Sensor: General Signal Failure | Set by the BCM in continuous memory when 1, 2 or 3 of the tire pressure sensors are faulted, not communicating with the RTM or when sensor data is not received by the BCM from the RTM. |
