TPMS Sensor Matching Process
Each TPMS sensor has a unique identification code. The identification code needs to be matched to a new tire/wheel position after rotating the vehicle’s tires or replacing one or more of the TPMS sensors.
Also, the TPMS sensor matching process should be performed after replacing a spare tire with a road tire containing the TPMS sensor.
The malfunction light and the DIC message should go off at the next ignition cycle. The sensors are matched to the tire/wheel positions, using a TPMS relearn tool, in the following order: driver side front tire, passenger side front tire, passenger side rear tire, and driver side rear.
See your dealer for service or to purchase a relearn tool.
There are two minutes to match the first tire/wheel position, and five minutes overall to match all four tire/wheel positions. If it takes longer, the matching process stops and must be restarted.
The TPMS sensor matching process is:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Place the vehicle power mode in ON/RUN/START. See Ignition Positions.
3. Select the vehicle information menu using the menu button.
4. Select the tire pressure screen using the up/down thumbwheel.
5. Press and hold SET/CLR to begin the sensor matching process.
6. Press SET/CLR to confirm selection. The horn sounds twice to signal the
receiver is in relearn mode and TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message displays on the
DIC screen.
7. Start with the driver side front tire.
8. Place the relearn tool against the tire sidewall, near the valve stem. Then
press the button to activate the TPMS sensor.
A horn chirp confirms that the sensor identification code has been matched to this tire and wheel position.
9. Proceed to the passenger side front tire, and repeat the procedure in
Step 8.
10. Proceed to the passenger side rear tire, and repeat the procedure in Step
8.
11. Proceed to the driver side rear tire, and repeat the procedure in Step 8.
The horn sounds two times to indicate the sensor identification code has been
matched to the driver side rear tire, and the TPMS sensor matching process is
no longer active. The TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message on the DIC display screen
goes off.
12. Press STOP to turn the ignition off.
13. Set all four tires to the recommended air pressure level as indicated on
the Tire and Loading Information label.
