vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction
exists. When the malfunction indicator is

TPMS from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS malfunction telltale after
replacing
one or more tires or wheels on your
vehicle to ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.
