The ABS (antilock brake system) system monitors the rpm (revolutions per minute) of each wheel. A tire low on air pressure will consistently spin faster than the others. The ABS module with the information it receives from all the wheel speed sensors determines something is wrong and illuminates the check tire pressure light.
