TMPS; you’ve heard that term before, but what does it mean? It stands for Tire Pressure Monitoring System. Just like the name suggests; they monitor your tire pressure. Most cars today have one on each tire. Sometimes spare tires will also have this sensor. When this warning light comes on, do not ignore it!
So, I had this warning light come on for my car. They found a nail in the tire. Non-repair zone… of course. Got 4 new tires because of being 4-wheel drive.
“The Car Care Council’s new video about the TPMS system explains the meaning of the symbol on your dashboard and its importance to vehicle safety,” said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council.
