How does a Tire pressure monitoring system work on a 2008 Nissan Frontier?

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) in a 2008 Nissan Frontier uses sensors installed in each tire to monitor tire pressure. These sensors transmit real-time data to the vehicle's onboard computer, which alerts the driver via a warning light on the dashboard if tire pressure drops below a certain threshold. The system helps enhance safety and fuel efficiency by ensuring that tires are properly inflated. Additionally, the TPMS may require recalibration if tires are rotated or replaced.
