TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM PROCEDURES FOR 2001 Chevrolet Impala AUTOMOBILES
Description
Vehicle: 2001 Chevrolet Impala LS 3.8 V6 GAS
The TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitor System) alerts the driver when a large change in the pressure of one tire exists. The system detects a tire pressure condition while the vehicle is in motion, once a tire pressure condition is detected, the system alerts the driver whenever the ignition is turned On.
The software used to calculate the relative tire pressure differences is contained in the EBCM. This software requires approximately 30 minutes of straight line driving in each of three speed ranges to complete the calibration cycle in order to have full capability for detecting the tire p...
