Standard definition

TPMS Receiver Circuit Malfunction

This code is in our catalogue but has not yet been through editorial review, so the guidance below is limited to what our structured data supports. We publish deeper diagnostic content only after a code has been reviewed — here is why.

In plain English

The body or chassis module has detected a fault in the TPMS RF receiver — for example open antenna or internal failure. No tire pressure data can be received.

A trouble code records what a control module measured. It does not identify which part failed. Test before replacing anything.
