Resetting the TPMS Sensor on a Chevy Traverse
To reset the TPMS sensor on a Chevy Traverse, you can follow these steps:
1. Check Tire Pressure: Ensure that the tire pressures are within the correct psi for each tire.
2. Use the TPMS Button: Turn the ignition key to the “on” position without starting the engine. Then, depress the TPMS button, usually located under the dash, until the TPMS light blinks several times.
3. Start the Vehicle: Start your vehicle and let it run for at least 20 minutes. The TPMS system should be reset after this process.
This process should apply to the first and second generation of the Chevy Traverse (2009-2021 model years).
If you have a 2011 Chevy Traverse LS trim, you can also perform a manual TPMS reset sensor matching process without using any tools. Here are the steps:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN with the engine off.
3. Press the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter’s LOCK and UNLOCK buttons at the same time for approximately five seconds.
It’s important to note that a TPMS tool or another properly formatted TPMS scan tool may be required to perform the reset procedure for some model years.
