What is TPMS?

The Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) is an essential safety feature designed to monitor the air pressure inside your vehicle’s tyres. It alerts you when tyre pressure falls below the recommended level, helping you avoid potential issues such as:

• Reduced Fuel Efficiency: Under-inflated tyres can lead to increased rolling resistance, decreasing your vehicle’s fuel efficiency.

• Tyre Damage: Driving on under-inflated tyres can cause uneven wear and tear, leading to premature tyre failure.

• Safety Risks: Low tyre pressure can impact handling, braking, and overall vehicle stability, increasing the risk of accidents.

Types of TPMS

There are two main types of Tyre Pressure Monitoring System:

1. Direct:

   • Uses sensors mounted inside each tyre to measure air pressure.

   • Provides real-time pressure readings and alerts on your vehicle’s dashboard.

2. Indirect:

   • Uses the vehicle’s ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) to detect changes in wheel speed that indicate low tyre pressure.

   • May not provide specific pressure readings but alerts you when there is a significant drop in pressure.
