Component Location





General Description

The LFI is located at each vehicle wheel house (FL, FR. RL, RR) High-Line systems are fitted with LFI units. An LFI unit is mounted in each wheel well of a vehicle to enable the Receiver unit to determine the vehicle position of each WE for which it has a stored ID code. Using a digital bi-directional serial control line to each LFI, the Receiver can activate an LFI to send out an LF message and trigger the WE sensor near its location to respond with an RF transmission. By activating the LFI units one at a time, the Receiver can automatically locate the vehicle position of each WE. For fault detection, the LFI will report back its "operating properly" status to the receiver via the control line.
The transmitter is capable of receiving an LF signal from a Low Frequency Initiator (LFI) mounted in the wheel well. The transmitter responds to a valid command from the LFI with a RF respond. The transmitter changes from Normal state to Storage state and from Storage state to Normal state with a valid command from the LFI with a RF response. The LF communication prolongs battery life (through state changes) and determines sensor location (through one-to-one handshaking between LFI and transmitter).

DTC Description

This DTC indicates that Auto-location timing is completed and ECU did not receive a datagram from the FL/FR/RL/RR WE sensor due to LFI trigger. The most likely cause is a transmission obstacle.

DTC Detecting Condition





Monitor Scantool Data

1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Connect 'TPMS exciter' or scantool to Data Link Connector(DLC).




3. Select "TPMS DIAGNOSIS" mode.
4. Select the "FULL" mode of "CURRENT DATA" function.
5. Monitor the parameter of senor on the 'TPMS exciter' or scan tool after 13minutes.




6. Is parameter normal?
YES
> Fault is intermittent. It has been repaired and TPMS receiver module memory is not cleared yet.
> Go to "Verification of vehicle Repair" procedure.
NO
> Check for vehicle interference sources.
> Repair if necessary and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.

Verification of Vehicle Repair

After a repair, it is essential to verify that the fault has been corrected.
1. Connect TPMS exciter or scantool and select "Diagnostic Trouble Codes(DTCs)" mode
2. Using a TPMS exciter or scantool, Clear DTC.
3. Operate the vehicle within DTC Enable conditions in General information.
4. Are any DTCs present ?
YES
> Go to the applicable troubleshooting procedure.
NO
> System performing to specification at this time.
