TPMS Transmitter (Tire Pressure Sensor): Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The TPMS transmitter combines the valve and tire pressure sensor in a single unit. The TPMS transmitters are mounted inside the tires. The TPMS transmitter measures tire pressure directly with its tire pressure sensor and sends radio frequency signals to KOS-ECU or WCM (without KOS). The TPMS transmitter includes acceleration sensor that senses tire rotation, and change tire pressure sampling and data transmission timing when vehicle is running.
NOTE:
Use only genuine wheels. The use of non-genuine wheels may cause the improper installation of the TPMS transmitters, possibly resulting in air leakage and damage to the TPMS transmitter.
