Ford Escape: Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) / Description and Operation - Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Vehicles With: Keyless Entry With Remote Start - Overview
Overview
The BCM uses tire pressure sensors to monitor tire pressure. The
sensors use radio signals to transmit the tire pressure to the RTM . The
RTM sends the information to the BCM over a LIN .
The tire pressure sensors are battery operated and mounted to the valve stems.
The IPC illuminates the TPMS
warning indicator and the message center displays a message when a
fault is present or when the tire pressure falls below the low pressure
limit.
