How to Relearn TPMS on a Chevy
To relearn the TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) on a Chevy, you can follow these steps:
1. Use a TPMS Relearn Tool:
– Take your GM TPMS relearn tool and point the device at the tire and press down the reset button on the tool. You should hear a horn beep. This will indicate that the tire sensor has been reset.
2. Resetting Tire Positions:
– Place the relearn tool against the tire sidewall and activate the sensor. The sensors are matched to the tire/wheel positions in the following order: driver side front tire, passenger side front tire, passenger side rear tire, and driver side rear.
3. Additional Tips:
– It’s recommended to reset the TPMS system after a wheel or sensor replacement.
– Some users have also reported success in relearning TPMS without a relearn tool by inflating tires to a certain pressure and then releasing air until a horn beep is heard, followed by adjusting the tire pressure back to the specified level.
Remember, it’s important to ensure that the vehicle is in TPMS Learn Mode before using the relearn tool.
