Tire Pressure Sensor Training: Notes
NOTE:
In the following procedure, a TPM Activation Tool (204-363) must be used.
NOTE:
The tire pressure sensor training procedure must be done on a single vehicle, in an area without Radio Frequency (RF) noise and at least 3 ft. (1 m) away from any other vehicle equipped with TPM system. RF noise is generated by electrical motor and appliance operation, cellular telephones and remote transmitters, power inverters and portable entertainment equipment.
NOTE:
If the vehicle has been stationary for more than 30 minutes, the sensors will go into a "sleep mode" to conserve battery power. It will be necessary to wake them up so they will transmit the latest tire pressure information to the Body Control Module (BCM). REFER to TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR ACTIVATION .
NOTE:
If a sensor does not respond to the TPM Activation Tool, attempt to activate the same sensor with the TPM Activation Tool. If the sensor still does not respond, move the vehicle to rotate the wheels at least one-fourth turn and attempt to activate the same sensor again.
NOTE:
The Body Control Module (BCM) has a 2-minute time limit between sensor responses. If the Body Control Module (BCM) does not recognize any 1 of the 4 tire pressure sensors during this time limit, the horn will sound twice and the message center (if equipped) will display TIRE NOT TRAINED REPEAT and the entire procedure must be repeated.
