Condition
Some customers may comment that the "SERVICE TIRE MONITOR" message is being displayed on the DIC.
Correction
DO NOT REPLACE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER.
If the DIC is displaying the SERVICE TIRE MONITOR message:
1.
Verify if the vehicle has an electronic aftermarket module spliced into the ALDL Class 2 data line (purple wire).
2.
If the vehicle HAS an aftermarket module spliced into the Class 2 line, pull the IPC fuse (located underhood) for 25 seconds.
Important:
Due to the electronic aftermarket module, the SERVICE TIRE MONITOR message may reoccur.
3.
Reinstall the IPC fuse. This will clear the SERVICE TIRE MONITOR message from the display.
4.
If the vehicle DOES NOT have an aftermarket module spliced into the Class 2 line, verify the vehicle is equipped with the correct PDM
(Passenger Door Module) and tires.
Warrant Information
This repair is not covered under the vehicle warranty due to the installation of an aftermarket module.
