2 Introduction
2.1 About TPMS
2.1.1 Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
A Tyre Pressure Monitoring System is a safety device that measures, identifies and warns the driver when one or more tyres is significantly under-inflated or over-inflated. Majority of the TPMS adopt direct tyre sensors. The TPMS sensor is typically located as a valve--mounted stem in the tyre. It works by monitoring the temperature, air pressure, and battery state in a vehicle tyre and automatically transmitting a
warning to the driver via a warning light or dashboard display. Those vehicles which have graphical displays of the TPMS positions can then show on which wheel there is a problem.
2.1.2 Why Monitor tyre Pressure?
Tyre Pressure Monitoring helps drivers to properly maintain their vehicle tyres, improves vehicle safety and fuel efficiency.
33,000 crashes are a result of under-inflated tyres.
75% of roadside flats are caused by a slow leak or under inflation.
35% of drive
rs admit to never checking tyre pressure.
.
.
NHTSA estimates TPMS could save as many as 660 lives annually.
Source: U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Data
Tyres influence the vehicle’s ability to handle, steer, brake, and maintain stability. If the tyres are under-inflated, vehicle safety is compromised. Sudden tyre failure can have serious consequences, especially at high speeds. With the help of TPMS, An estimated 23,000 accidents and 535 fatal accidents
annually involve blowouts or flat tyres. It is reported by Sécurité Routière (the French Institution for Road Safety) that 9% of all road accidents worldwide are attributed to tyre under-inflation. German DEKRA estimated that 41% of accidents with physical injuries are linked to tyre problems, according to their investigation.
2.2 About FCR-TPMS
The )&5TPMS trigger tool is a universal TPM sensor decoder or activator. It accurately
activates and decodes TPM sensors and displays the data or any faults.
