TPMS CAN timeout/Not equipped
AI status

100%
Causes
- Vehicle not factory-equipped with TPMS (message never present)
- TPMS control module missing, asleep, or powered off
- Open/short or intermittent wiring/connector fault on TPMS CAN pair or power/ground circuits
- Failed TPMS control module or CAN transceiver
- Dead or missing TPMS wheel sensors (no sensor traffic to TPMS ECU)
- Blown fuse or lost supply/ground to TPMS ECU
Symptoms
- TPMS warning lamp or message illuminated or flashing on dash
- No tire pressure values shown on cluster/infotainment
- Scan tool shows U1114 or no TPMS messages present
- Possible related network faults or communication errors with other modules on same CAN segment
What to check
- Confirm vehicle equipment level/build sheet to verify if TPMS should be present
- Connect a capable scan tool and read stored/current U1114 and related network DTCs
- On scan tool, observe whether TPMS module is listed and if any TPMS live data/messages appear
- Check fuses and power/ground circuits for TPMS ECU
- Visually inspect TPMS ECU connector, wiring harness and nearby splices for damage or corrosion
- Check for aftermarket devices connected to CAN or power circuits and remove/disconnect for test
Signal parameters
- CAN recessive state: CAN_H ≈ 2.5 V, CAN_L ≈ 2.5 V (small differential)
- CAN dominant state: CAN_H ≈ 3.5 V, CAN_L ≈ 1.5 V (approx. 2 V differential)
- Typical CAN bus termination: ≈ 60 ohms across CAN_H and CAN_L (two 120Ω in parallel)
- Common CAN data rates used on chassis networks: 250 kbps or 500 kbps (verify for specific model)
- TPMS messages are intermittent (sensor transmissions) and TPMS ECU messages may appear at ignition/on startup — absence of expected frames indicates timeout
Diagnostic algorithm
- Verify vehicle is supposed to have TPMS (VIN/equipment list). If not equipped, document and clear code.
- Record freeze frame and full DTC list. Note any other U-codes or CAN errors.
- Using scan tool, attempt to communicate with TPMS ECU. If module not listed or no response, proceed to network checks.
- Check fuses and measure battery voltage at TPMS ECU power pin with ignition ON. Repair supply issues before further diagnostics.
- Visually inspect and wiggle-test TPMS ECU connector and harness for loose pins or corrosion. Repair as needed.
- Backprobe CAN_H and CAN_L at the TPMS ECU connector with ignition ON. Verify recessive voltages and compare to expected (see signal_params).
- Measure resistance across CAN_H and CAN_L with power off; expect ~60 Ω. If open or very high, suspect broken wire/connector or missing termination.
- If voltages/resistance abnormal, trace wiring toward gateway/other modules and repair open/short/ground faults. Use wiring diagrams for pinouts.
- If bus looks OK but TPMS ECU does not respond, check for intermittent activity with oscilloscope while vehicle awake and during wheel movement (or sensor re-learn).
- Disable or remove aftermarket modules that may be connected to CAN and re-test.
- If wiring and bus are good and the module still does not respond, consider replacing/reprogramming TPMS ECU per factory procedure. After repair, clear codes and perform relearn/test drive to confirm.
- Document repairs and if vehicle is not equipped, note that U1114 may be expected and can be suppressed in some scan tools.
Likely causes
- Connector corrosion or pin damage at TPMS ECU or gateway
- Open/short on CAN_H or CAN_L near TPMS module
- TPMS ECU has no battery/ignition supply or bad ground
- TPMS module CAN transceiver failed or bus termination missing
- Vehicle not equipped — no TPMS ECU fitted from factory
Fault status
Status
TPMS CAN timeout: TPMS module did not respond on CAN bus or vehicle not equipped with TPMS module.
Repair difficulty: Medium
Diagnostic time: 0.5-3.0 hours
