^^^^If it is a sensor, it means the battery (non replaceable) has gone bad. They usually last 6 to 8 years. If that's the case, you should replace all.

But that doesn't look like the error you get with the tps going bad that's something with your traction control

xxmariolxx is right. A bad TPMS battery will give the "Check system" error.

Even though the check engine light isn't on, I'd recommend connecting a scan tool and checking if any codes are present.
