C1506–LEFT FRONT TIRE PRESSURE TRIGGER MODULE PERFORMANCE





For a complete wiring diagram Refer to Section 8W

Theory of Operation


The Tire Pressure Trigger Module is used to automatically learn the location of each wheel sensor on the vehicle. The module is controlled and activated in sequence by the Wireless Control Module (SKREEM) over a LIN bus. When activated, the module will generate a 125 KHz signal of sufficient field strength to trigger the tire pressure sensor and force a RF transmission from the sensor.


  • When Monitored:

    Continuously.

  • Set Condition:

    The WCM (SKREEM) will monitor the messages from each Tire Pressure Trigger Module over the LIN bus. If any of the messages are not received, or are received other than as expected, a DTC will set. When the condition is corrected, or is no longer detected, as acknowledged via a LIN bus message, the WCM will reset the appropriate trigger module fault status.

WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE (SKREEM)
 




Diagnostic Test

1.

NOTE: If the incorrect Placard Values were programmed into the WCM/SKREEM, a DTC could be set. Before continuing with any TPM diagnostic test, using the scan tool, check that the correct Placard Values have been programmed in to the module.





Is the DTC status Active at this time?

Yes
  • Go to 2


No
  • Go to 9

2.








NOTE: The test light should be illuminated and bright. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.



Is the test light illuminated and bright?

Yes
  • Go to 3


No

3.




NOTE: The test light should be illuminated and bright. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.



Does the test light illuminate brightly?

Yes
  • Go to 4


No

4.






Is there any voltage present?

Yes
  • Repair the (D508) COM - LIN Tire Pressure Monitor LAN circuit for a short to voltage.


No

5.






Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

Yes


No
  • Go to 6

6.



NOTE: The test light should be illuminated and bright. Compared the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.



Does the test light illuminate bright?

Yes
  • Go to 7


No

Does the DTC reset or is the status Active for this DTC?

Yes
  • Go to 8


No

8.WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE (SKREEM)





Repair

9.INTERMITTENT TIRE PRESSURE TRIGGER MODULE DTC








Does the DTC reset or is the status Active for this DTC?

Yes
  • Return to the first step of this test and perform the diagnostic procedure.


No
  • Test complete.
