Tire Pressure Sensor Training

NOTE: New tire pressure sensors are shipped in OFF mode and must be turned ON to be trained. Turn ON the tire pressure sensor by inflating the tire to the specified tire pressure values and wait 2 minutes. After 2 minutes, proceed with training the tire pressure sensors.

NOTE: For vehicles with different front and rear tire pressures, the tire pressure sensor must be trained after a wheel rotation. Otherwise, the TPM system is not affected after a wheel/tire rotation.

NOTE: The tire pressure sensor training procedure must be done, one vehicle at time, in an area without radio frequency noise, and 3 ft. (1 m) away from other vehicle equipped with TPM system.

NOTE: In the following procedure, a TPM Sensor Activation Tool must be used.

Turn ignition switch to OFF position, then press the brake pedal.
Turn ignition switch from OFF to RUN positions 3 times, ending in the RUN position.
NOTE: Do not wait more than 1 minute between each key cycle.
Press the brake pedal, turn ignition switch to OFF position.
Turn ignition switch from OFF to RUN positions 3 times, ending in the RUN position.
NOTE: Do not wait more than 1 minute between each key cycle.

NOTE: The horn will sound, the message center will display "TRAIN LF TIRE" (if equipped), and the TPMS warning indicator will flash if the training mode has been entered successfully.

NOTE: The message center will display "TRAIN LF TIRE" (if equipped), to indicate which tire you should place the scan tool against first.
Place the activation tool against the left front tire wall 180 degrees opposite of the valve stem. Press the test button. The horn will sound to indicate the tire pressure sensor has been trained. See Figure
NOTE: It may take 6 seconds to activate the tire pressure sensor. During this time frame the activation scan tool must remain in place. If the tire pressure sensor does not respond to the activation tool, rotate the tire at least a 1/4 turn and try to activate again.

NOTE: If the SJB does not recognize any one of the tires, the horn will sound twice, the message center (if equipped) will display "TIRE NOT TRAINED REPEAT", and the training procedure must be repeated.

NOTE: Do not wait more than 2 minutes between each tire pressure sensor training.
Repeat procedure on the 3 remaining tires.
The horn will sound to indicate that each tire pressure sensor has been trained. See Figure
NOTE: Do not wait more than 2 minutes between each tire pressure sensor training.
Turn ignition switch to OFF position. If the horn does not sound, the training procedure is complete.
NOTE: Vehicle equipped with a message center will verify the training procedure is complete if the message center displays "TIRE TRAINING MODE COMPLETE".

NOTE: Vehicles not equipped with a message center: If the horn does sound when the ignition switch is turn to the OFF position, repeat the training procedure.
Using a Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS) or a equivalent tester, record the tire pressure IDs trained.
