Dodge Viper SRT-10 (ZB). Manual — part 370

POSSIBLE CAUSES

LO TIRE LCD MESSAGE FLASHING

INTERMITTENT DTC

TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR/TRANSMITTER NOT PROGRAMMED

TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR/TRANSMITTER ROAD TEST (ROLL SWITCH FAILURE)

TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR/TRANSMITTER INTERNAL FAULT

TEST

ACTION

APPLICABILITY

1

NOTE: The true symptom for a sensor failure is a continuously illuminated
LO TIRE LCD message, followed by the determination of either a failed
module or sensor(s).
Turn the ignition on.
Ensure the LO TIRE LCD message proves out. (two seconds)
Ensure the LO TIRE LCD message is ON or OFF.
NOTE: The LO TIRE LCD message must be ON continuously for the result of
this test to be valid.
Is the LO TIRE LCD message ON?

All

Yes

→ Go To 2

No

→ The condition is not present at this time. Monitor DRBIIIt

parameters while wiggling the related wire harness. Refer to any
Technical Service Bulletins (TSB) that may apply. Visually in-
spect the related wiring harness and connector terminals.
Perform TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM VERIFICA-
TION TEST.

2

Turn the ignition on.
With the DRBIII

t, read TPM Module DTCs.

Does the DRBIII

t display TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR/TRANSMITTER?

All

Yes

→ Go To 3

No

→ Go To 5

3

NOTE: All symptoms are diagnosed using these tests with the exception of
LO TIRE LCD message flashing. The flashing of the LO TIRE LCD message
would indicate either a low or critical tire air pressure condition.
Turn the ignition on.
NOTE: Program the Tire Pressure Sensor/Transmitter reported in the DTC.
With the DRBIII

t, Select MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTION, then Program (LF, RF,

RR or LR) Tire Pressure Sensor/Transmitter.
Place a magnet, special tool 8192, on the valve stem of the affected Tire Pressure
Sensor/Transmitter.
Does the DRBIII

t display that the Tire Pressure Sensor/Transmitter ID was

programmed?

All

Yes

→ Go To 4

No

→ Replace and program the Tire Pressure Sensor/Transmitter in

accordance with the Service Information.
Perform TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM VERIFICA-
TION TEST.

NOTE: This test will determine if programming the sensor completed the
repair.
Disconnect the DRBIII

t.

Drive the vehicle for about 10 minutes above 33 km/h (20 mph).
Stop vehicle.
Connect the DRBIII

t.

Turn the ignition on.
With the DRBIII

t, read the last 32 transmissions.

Does the DRBIII

t display transmissions from the affected Tire Pressure Sensor/

Transmitter?

All

Yes

→ The repair is complete.

Perform TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM VERIFICA-
TION TEST.

No

→ Replace and program the Tire Pressure Sensor/Transmitter in

accordance with the Service Information.
Perform TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM VERIFICA-
TION TEST.

5

Turn the ignition off.
Visually inspect the related wiring harness. Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or
partially broken wires.
Visually inspect the related wire harness connectors. Look for broken, bent, pushed
out, or corroded terminals.
Refer to any Hotline letters or Technical Service Bulletins that may apply.
Were any problems found?

All

Yes

→ Repair as necessary.

Perform TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM VERIFICA-
TION TEST.

No

→ Test Complete.

Test Note:

All symptoms listed above are diagnosed using the same tests.

The title for the tests will be LEFT FRONT TIRE PRESSURE
SENSOR/TRANSMITTER LOW BATTERY - TPM.

When Monitored and Set Condition:

LEFT FRONT TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR/TRANSMITTER LOW BATTERY - TPM

When Monitored:

Ignition ON. Vehicles speed over 33 Km/h (20 mph). Every 60-68

seconds.

Set Condition:

When the Tire Pressure Sensor/Transmitter battery condition is sensed

low for three consecutive ignition cycles. (An ignition cycle is defined as: the ignition ON
for 15 minutes and vehicle speed is above 33 Km/h (20 mph) and long enough for the TPM
Module to receive a transmission from each transmitter.

LEFT REAR TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR/TRANSMITTER LOW BATTERY - TPM

When Monitored:

Ignition ON. Vehicles speed over 33 Km/h (20 mph). Every 60-68

seconds.

Set Condition:

When the Tire Pressure Sensor/Transmitter battery condition is sensed

low for three consecutive ignition cycles. (An ignition cycle is defined as: the ignition ON
for 15 minutes and vehicle speed is above 33 Km/h (20 mph) and long enough for the TPM
Module to receive a transmission from each transmitter.
