Welcome to the jeepExperts.com in-depth web page on the WK Generation Jeep Grand Cherokee tire stress monitor techniques. Did we miss something? Please get in contact with us and inform us about it!
Two TPM techniques are supplied for 2005-2010 Grand Cherokees. The base model, included Standard with all Laredo fashions, consists of tire stress monitoring sensors hooked up to every wheel by the valve stem mounting gap, a central receiver module (WCM) and a amber coloured indicator lamp. A sensor is put in within the spare wheel if the car is provided with an identical full measurement spare wheel and tire meeting
The superior TPM system is out there on the Limited, Overland and SRT8. It is just like the one within the earlier technology WJ in that precise pressures are displayed for every of the 4 tires. The show is included into the instrument cluster.
Wireless Control Module (WCM)
The receiver circuit for the TPM system is built-in into the WCM. The WCM additionally consists of the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) receiver and the Sentry Key Immobilizer (SKIM) receiver. All three receivers share a quantity or frequent parts. The WCM decodes the RF indicators transmitted by every of the car’s tire stress sensors. The decoded data is used to find out if “warning” or “fault” situations exist throughout the TPM system.
The WCM communicates with the module that controls the “ISO Indicator Lamp” and the textual content show (Premium system), by way of the car bus system (CAN B).
Upon detection of a warning or fault situation, the WCM will ship a request to light up the Indicator Lamp. Also, upon detection of a warning or fault situation, the show module will ship a request to sound the “chime”. A chime will solely be requested as soon as per ignition cycle per warning or fault situation detected.
The WCM will retailer all warning and fault situations, placard stress values, low-pressure threshold values and low stress threshold hysterisis values in reminiscence that may be accessed by diagnostic communication. If new sensors are launched to the car, the information saved for the sensor being changed will likely be deleted.
The WCM will retailer all wheel sensor ID’s and areas and faults in reminiscence that may be accessed by diagnostic communication. All different knowledge values transmitted from every wheel sensor shall be saved within the WCM reminiscence.
Tire stress sensors
One tire stress sensor is mounted to every wheel rather than the normal tire valve stem. Each sensor has an inside battery that lasts as much as 10 years. The battery will not be serviceable. At the time of battery failure, the sensor have to be changed.
The TPM system operates on both a 315MHz radio frequency (2005-2007 Grand Cherokee) or a 433MHz frequency (2008-2009 Grand Cherokee). All 2005-2009 export fashions use 433MHz. Starting with the 2008 mannequin 12 months, many home autos switched to the 433MHz frequency. These autos are the Grand Cherokee, Commander, 300C, Charger, Challenger, minivans, and the brand new 2009 Journey.
The 315MHz sensors won’t work within the 433MHz system, and can trigger a system malfunction warning within the Tire Pressure Monitoring System. Also, the vendor TPM/RKE Analyzer software won’t learn the sensors if set to the improper 12 months. It is essential to you’ll want to use the right half quantity when changing sensors, and to set the TPM/RKE Analyzer software to the correct car and mannequin 12 months.
The valve stem caps and cores used are particularly designed for the tire stress monitoring sensors. Although just like commonplace valve stem caps and cores, they’re completely different. The valve stem cap has a particular seal inside to maintain moisture and corrosion out. The valve stem core has a particular nickel coating to guard from corrosion.
The battery operated tire stress sensors lay dormant (Park Mode), then wake and begin transmitting (Drive Mode) when the car first reaches speeds over 20 mph (32 km/h). Once the wheels cease rotating for a interval of roughly 20 minutes, the sensors shut down till once more awaken. Although not transmitting as when in Drive Mode, whereas in Park Mode, the sensors nonetheless transmit roughly as soon as each 13 hours to let the receiver know air stress standing at the moment.
Using an RF sign, every sensor transmits tire stress knowledge roughly as soon as each minute. Each sensor’s (transmitter) broadcast is uniquely coded in order that the wi-fi management module (WCM) can monitor the state of every of the sensors on the 4 rotating street wheels. The WCM routinely learns and shops the sensor’s ID whereas driving after a sensor has been changed. There isn’t any formal retraining process vital.
CAUTION 1: The use of tire sealants is strictly prohibited for autos outfitted with the Tire Pressure Monitoring system. Tire sealants can clog tire stress sensors.
CAUTION 2: Tire stress sensor valve stem caps and cores are specifically designed for the sensors. Due to threat of corrosion, don’t use an ordinary valve stem cap or core in a tire stress sensor rather than the unique gear type sensor cap and core.
CAUTION 3: Do not try to put in a tire stress sensor in an aftermarket wheel. Use tire stress sensors in authentic type manufacturing facility wheels solely.
CAUTION 4: Any time a sensor is to be put in in a wheel, a brand new seal and washer have to be put in on the stem to make sure air tight sealing.
NOTE: TPM thresholds have been established for the unique tire measurement outfitted on the car. Use authentic measurement tires solely to take care of system accuracy.

The “Tire Pressure Monitoring Indicator Lamp” will illuminate within the instrument cluster, and an audible chime will likely be activated when a number of tire pressures is low. The “Tire Pressure Monitoring Indicator Lamp” will flash on and off for ten seconds when a system fault is detected. The flash cycle will repeat each ten minutes or till the fault situation is eliminated and reset.
The base Tire Pressure Monitoring System consists of the next parts:
- Receiver Module
- 4 (or 5*) Wheel Sensors
- Amber Colored Tire Pressure Monitoring Indicator Lamp
*A sensor is situated within the spare wheel if the car is provided with an identical full measurement spare wheel and tire meeting.
Base system operation
The tire stress monitoring system is designed to function with out lack of perform for all sorts of normal tire constructions. (Function with several types of run flat tire constructions must be evaluated for every design). The wheel sensor shall monitor tire stress, air temperature contained in the tire, wheel acceleration and the sensor inside battery standing for all 4 lively street tires. The sensor will broadcast this data, together with a novel 32 bit ID, to a central receiver circuit situated contained in the WCM. The data obtained by the WCM will likely be decoded and saved in reminiscence (RAM) within the WCM. If a “warning” or “fault” situation exists, the WCM will ship a bus message request to light up the amber coloured indicator lamp and to sound the chime.
If the WCM detects a warning or fault situation at ignition key “on” it’s going to wait ten seconds +/- 10 % earlier than sending the primary request to light up the Indicator Lamp. This will guarantee that the show module has concluded its bulb verify interval. The show module will request a chime as soon as per ignition cycle for every “warning” or “fault” situation detected. A “warning” or “fault” situation will stay enabled till the issue inflicting the situation is corrected and eliminated/reset.
The WCM shall repeatedly monitor for the receipt of tire stress RF message transmissions from the wheel sensors throughout each the ignition key “on” and key “off” cycles. The wheel sensor ID’s and the placement of every sensor (e.g. Tire 1, Tire 2 and so forth.) are saved within the WCM non-volatile reminiscence throughout the preliminary Manufacturing Plant Process, or throughout a service process, as required. The beneficial “placard stress”, “low-pressure threshold” and “Hysteresis Pressure Values” for the tires put in on the car, are saved within the WCM non-volatile reminiscence throughout the preliminary Manufacturing Plant Process, or throughout a service process, as required.
The TPM System will proceed to warn the motive force of low tire stress so long as the situation exists, and won’t flip off the indicator lamp till the tire stress is at or above the Low Pressure (lamp) OFF threshold (see placard desk under). The system will routinely replace and the TPM warning lamp will extinguish as soon as the up to date tire pressures have been obtained.
The tire stress will fluctuate with temperature by about 1 psi (6.9 kPa) for each 12°F (6.5°C). This signifies that when the skin temperature decreases, the tire stress will lower. Tire stress ought to all the time be set primarily based on chilly inflation tire stress (placard stress). This is outlined because the tire stress after a car has not been pushed for greater than 3 hours – and in outdoors ambient temperature. The tire stress will even improve because the car is pushed – that is regular and there ought to be no adjustment for this elevated stress. For a system fault, the system will return to regular as soon as the WCM receives a sound transmission from that sensor location.

The transponders are situated within the left entrance, proper entrance and proper rear wheel wells. A fourth transponder will not be vital within the remaining wheel nicely as a result of process-of-elimination principle. Once the system is aware of the placement of the primary three sensors it assumes the placement of the fourth tire stress sensor is within the left rear tire.
Notes and cautions
NOTE 1: It is especially essential, so that you can verify the tire stress in your entire tires repeatedly and to take care of the correct stress.
NOTE 2: For autos with non-obligatory wheel/tire sizes and considerably completely different tire placard pressures, the placard stress worth and the low-pressure threshold worth is re-programmable at your approved vendor to accommodate the shopper chosen wheel/tire combos beneficial by DaimlerChrysler Corporation.
NOTE 3:
- The TPM system can inform the motive force of a low tire stress situation.
- The TPM system will not be supposed to exchange regular tire care and upkeep, nor to supply warning of a tire failure or situation.
- The TPM system shouldn’t be used as a tire stress gauge whereas adjusting your tire stress.
| CAUTION! The TPM system has been optimized for the unique gear tires and wheels. TPM system pressures have been established for the tire measurement outfitted in your car. Undesirable system operation or sensor harm could consequence when utilizing substitute gear that isn’t of the identical measurement, kind, and/or type. After-market wheels could cause sensor harm. Do not use tire sealant from a can, or steadiness beads in case your car is provided with a TPM system, as harm to the sensors could consequence.CAUTION! After inspecting or adjusting the tire stress all the time reinstall the valve stem cap. This will forestall moisture and filth from getting into the valve stem, which might harm the wheel rim sensor. |
