DTC C2121/21: No Signal from Transmitter ID1 in Main Mode; DTC C2122/22: No Signal from Transmitter ID2 in Main Mode; DTC C2123/23: No Signal from Transmitter ID3 in Main Mode; DTC C2124/24: No Signal from Transmitter ID4 in Main Mode; DTC C2131/31: No Signal from Transmitter ID1 in 2nd Mode; DTC C2132/32: No Signal from Transmitter ID2 in 2nd Mode; DTC C2133/33: No Signal from Transmitter ID3 in 2nd Mode; DTC C2134/34: No Signal from Transmitter ID4 in 2nd Mode; DTC C2181/81: Transmitter ID1 not Received (Test Mode DTC); DTC C2182/82: Transmitter ID2 not Received (Test Mode DTC); DTC C2183/83: Transmitter ID3 not Received (Test Mode DTC); DTC C2184/84: Transmitter ID4 not Received (Test Mode DTC): Description

The tire pressure warning valve and transmitters that are installed in the tire and wheel assemblies measure the air pressure of the tires. The measured values are transmitted to the tire pressure warning antennas on the body as radio waves and then sent to the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver. The ECU compares the measured air pressure values with the air pressure threshold. When the measured air pressure value is less than this threshold, the warning light in the combination meter comes on.

The tire pressure warning valve and transmitters constantly send radio waves to the tire pressure warning antennas. Under the conditions below, the tire pressure warning antenna is unable to receive the signals from the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters, and a DTC is stored.

HINT: 

When no transmitter ID is received from a tire pressure warning valve and transmitter for a total of 20 minutes while the vehicle speed is more than 8 km/h (5 mph) or no transmitter ID is received from all the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters for a total of 20 minutes, DTCs are stored.

DTCs from C2121/21 to C2134/34 can only be cleared by using the Techstream. DTCs from C2181/81 to C2184/84 can be cleared when the transmitter in the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter sends a forced transmission signal or when test mode ends. DTCs from C2181/81 to C2184/84 are output only in test mode.

Following condition (a) or (b) is met:
(a) When all conditions below are met:
  • Tire pressure warning valve and transmitter is not in stop mode.
  • Signals are continuously not received from tire pressure warning valve and transmitters for 20 minutes or more while communication between tire pressure warning ECU and receiver and ECUs of other systems is functioning normally and vehicle is driven at speed of 8 km/h (5 mph) or more.

(b) When all conditions below are met:
  • Tire pressure warning valve and transmitter is not in stop mode.
  • No transmitter ID is received from tire pressure warning valves and transmitters for 20 minutes or more.
  • Tire pressure warning valve and transmitter
  • Tire pressure warning antenna
  • Harness or connector
  • Tire pressure warning ECU and receiver
C2181/81
C2182/82
C2183/83
C2184/84
Test mode procedure is performed
  • Tire pressure warning valve and transmitter
  • Tire pressure warning antenna
  • Harness or connector
  • Tire pressure warning ECU and receiver

HINT: 

It is necessary to perform the procedure to identify the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter that is malfunctioning because it cannot be identified by the output DTC.
