Hyundai i-30: Tires/Wheels / Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Description and operation
Indirect Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Using a wheel speed signal from the ESC, the system analyzes the turning radius
of the tire and change in tire stiffness to detect a pressure loss.
TPMS determines under-inflation by calculating pressure loss based on the specified
pressure. The recommened pressure must therefore be re-saved by operating the
SET button once tires are replaced or pressures are adjusted.
Differences between direct and indirect TPMS
Indirect TPMS
|
Direct TPMS
|
|
|
|
| •
|
The turning radius of the tire and change in tire stiffness
are calculated indirectly.
|
| •
|
No air pressure sensor needs to be installed in the unit.
|
| •
|
The recommended tire pressure has to be re-saved after replacing
a tire or adjusting air pressure (by pressing the "SET" button).
|
|
| •
|
The infaltion pressure inside the tire is measured using a sensor
and then wirelessly transmitted to the unit.
|
| •
|
A separate unit and four air pressure sensors are required to
be installed.
|
| •
|
Poor performance may occur due to frequency noises as the direct
TPMS adopts a wireless transmission method.
|
|
Low tire pressure warning lamp
|
1. |
Turn-on condition
| •
|
• When tire pressure is below the allowed threshold
|
|
|
2. |
Turn-off condition
| •
|
When the low tire pressure warning light illuminates due to
the rapid leak, the warning light will extinguish if tire is
inflated above the warnning threshold.

Troubleshooting
Symptom
|
Possible cause
|
Remedy
|
Low tire pressure warning lamp turns on at the correct tire pressure/ Low
tire pressure warning lamp fails to turn on at the low pressure
|
| •
|
SET button has not been pressed after tire replacement or air
pressure adjustment.
|
|
|
1. |
Check the air pressure.
|
|
2. |
Check that the wheel inch variant coding procedure has been
correctly performed.
|
– |
If the coding is inconsistent with vehicle's options
e.g.wheel size,etc. repeat the procedure.
|
|
|
3. |
Check the recommended tire pressure level and then press the
SET button.
|
– |
Do not press the SET button without verifying the air
pressure.
|
|
– |
Warning light may not be illuminated when driving with
snowchains installed, or driving on unpaved roads.
|
|
|
| •
|
SET button has been pressed at the incorrect pressure.
|
| –
|
SET button has been pressed at the low pressure without filling
the tire(s) to specified pressures (regardless of the warning
light illumination).
|
| –
|
SET button has been pressed with tires over or under inflated.
|
| –
|
SET button has been pressed with significant differences in
pressure between tires.
|
|
| •
|
When driving with snowchains installed
|
|
| •
|
When driving mainly on unpaved/ curved roads
|
|
Repair procedures
| Indirect TPMS Reset Procedure |
|
1. |
Adjust pressure in all 4 tires to the recommended air pressure.
|
|
2. |
Press the SET button for more than 3 seconds to store the pressure.
|
|
3. |
Check if system warning light blinks for 4 seconds. (turn off after
blinking)
|
|
4. |
Perform the learning procedure through driving.
|
• |
Perform the learning procedure on a level surface.
|
|
• |
At least 20 minutes of learning time is required.
|
|
|
| Diagnosis procedure using a diagnostic
device |
Perform the indirect TPMS variant coding using a diagnostic device in case of
ESC module replacement.
Repair procedures
Front wheel alignment
•
When using a commercially available computerized wheel alignment
equipment to inspect the front wheel alignment, always position
the vehicle on a level surface with the front wheels facing
straight ahead...
