Operating electronic devices or
being near facilities using radio
wave frequencies similar to the
TPMS could cause the TPMS
sensors to malfunction.

If the TPMS is not functioning
properly, it cannot detect or signal a
low tire pressure condition. See
your dealer for service if the TPMS
malfunction light and DIC message,
if equipped, come on and stay on.

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, if equipped, 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. A TPMS relearn tool
can also be purchased.
See Tire Pressure Monitor Sensor
Activation Tool at
www.gmtoolsandequipment.com or
call 1-800-GM TOOLS
(1-800-468-6657).

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 in Service

Mode. See

down arrows) to scroll to the
Tire Pressure Menu Item
screen.

5. Press and hold the SET/CLR

button to begin the sensor
matching process.

A message requesting
acceptance of the process may
display.

6. If requested, press the SET/

CLR button again to confirm
the selection.

The horn sounds twice to
signal the receiver is in relearn
mode and the TIRE LEARN or
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.
