TPMS Sensor Matching ProcessEach TPMS sensor has a unique identification code.Any time you rotate your vehicle’s tires or replace one ormore of the TPMS sensors, the identification codeswill need to be matched to the new tire/wheel position.The sensors are matched to the tire/wheel positionsin the following order: driver side front tire, passengerside front tire, passenger side rear tire, and driverside rear tire using a TPMS diagnostic tool. See yourdealer/retailer for service.The TPMS sensors can also be matched to eachtire/wheel position by increasing or decreasing the tire’sair pressure. If increasing the tire’s air pressure, donot exceed the maximum inflation pressure indicated onthe tire’s sidewall.To decrease air-pressure out of a tire you can use thepointed end of the valve cap, a pencil-style air pressuregage, or a key.You have two minutes to match the first tire/wheelposition, and five minutes overall to match all fourtire/wheel positions. If it takes longer than two minutes,to match the first tire and wheel, or more than fiveminutes to match all four tire and wheel positions thematching process stops and you need to start over.The TPMS sensor matching process is outlined below:1. Set the parking brake.2. Turn the ignition switch to ON/RUN with theengine off.3. Press the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter’sLOCK and UNLOCK buttons at the same time forapproximately five seconds. The horn sounds twiceto signal the receiver is in relearn mode andTIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message displays on theDIC screen.4. Start with the driver side front tire.5. Remove the valve cap from the valve cap stem.Activate the TPMS sensor by increasing ordecreasing the tire’s air pressure for five seconds,or until a horn chirp sounds. The horn chirp,which may take up to 30 seconds to sound,confirms that the sensor identification code hasbeen matched to this tire and wheel position.6. Proceed to the passenger side front tire, and repeatthe procedure in Step 5.7. Proceed to the passenger side rear tire, and repeatthe procedure in Step 5.5-67
