TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM PROCEDURES FOR 2009 Pontiac G8 AUTOMOBILES
Description
Vehicle: 2009 Pontiac G8 3.6 V6 GAS
The TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitor System) warns the driver when a significant loss, or gain of tire pressure occurs in any of the four tires and allows the driver to display the individual tire pressures and the locations on the DIC (Driver Information Center) display. The system uses the BCM (Body Control Module), DIC, instrument panel cluster, RCDLR (Remote Control Door Lock Receiver), a RF (Radio Frequency) transmitting tire pressure sensor in each wheel and the serial data circuit. Each tire pressure sensor has an internal power supply with service life of 10 years.
