Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Dodge Grand Caravan, 2004 Dodge Caravan, and 2004 Chrysler Town & Country. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

If equipped with the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), each of the vehicles four wheels will have a valve stem with a pressure sensor and radio transmitter built in. Signals from the tire pressure Sensor/Transmitter are received and interpreted by the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM). Using the DRBIII®, go to ANTI-THEFT for the SKREEM data.

A Sensor/Transmitter in a mounted wheel will broadcast an RF frequency indicating its pressure once per minute when the vehicle is in drive mode. To activate the Sensor/Transmitter operation, the required SKREEM speed is 13 mph (20 km/h). Each Sensor/Transmitters broadcast is uniquely coded so that the SKREEM can monitor the states of each Sensor/Transmitter on the vehicle. The SKREEM TPMS does not use a magnet to relearn, it automatically learns while driving after a SKREEM or a Sensor/Transmitter has been replaced.
