TPMS Reminder Reset - Procedure 03

If the tire pressure sensors fitted to the running wheels vehicle are changed, the module can learn the new sensor identifications automatically, using an 'auto-location' function The TPMS module automatically re-learns the position of the wheels on the vehicle if the tire pressure sensors are replaced or the wheel positions on the vehicle are changed. The TPMS can learn the new sensor identification automatically when the vehicle is driven for more than 15 minutes at a speed of more than 12 mph (20 km/h).

NOTE: Tire pressure sensors are not fitted to the space saver spare wheel and therefore the spare wheel is not monitored.

The TPMS software can automatically detect, under all operating conditions, the following:

The tire learn and location process is ready to commence when the vehicle has been stationary or travelling at less than 12 mph (20 km/h) for 15 minutes. This is known as 'parking mode'. The learn/locate process requires the vehicle to be driven at speeds of more than 12 mph (20 km/h) for 15 minutes. If the vehicle speed reduces to below 12 mph (20 km/h), the learn process timer is suspended until the vehicle speed increases to more than 12 mph (20 km/h), after which time the timer is resumed. If the vehicle speed remains below 12 mph (20 km/h) for more than 15 minutes, the timer is set to zero and process starts again.
