What is the reason why the dashboard of Mercedes-Benz c200 appears red and then shows tire pressure detection?

TPMS- Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS- Tire Pressure Monitoring System) provides drivers with necessary tire information by continuously detecting tire pressure and temperature, and sends out warning signals when abnormal conditions occur. According to American law, from June 2003 165438+ 10, all cars must be equipped with tire pressure monitoring system.

Internationally, as early as the end of 1970s, the tire pressure automatic detection system has been studied. The tire pressure detection system introduced by American Lucas Company 198 1 has a receiver in the cab and a sensor in each wheel. Subsequently, C.P.K and marketing companies also developed their own products. The basic structure consists of three parts: sensor, signal generator and receiver. The sensor is installed on the spokes to directly detect the internal pressure of the tire.
