Tire Pressure Sensor Retraining

NOTE: To perform this procedure, a Chrysler DRB-III® scan tool and a Relearn Magnet (8821) must be used.
NOTE: A new sensor ID can also be programmed directly into the TPM module by using a RKE-TPM Analyzer in conjunction with a Scan Tool. Once the new sensor ID has been programmed, the vehicle will need to be driven above 15mph until the fault is no longer active (lamp extinguishes) and display is updated (for up to 20 minutes). Using a TPM-RKE Analyzer can take up to a minute to force a transmission from a sensor.
WARNING: In the following procedure, Relearn Magnet (8821) is used. Death or serious injury can occur if magnetically sensitive devices are exposed to the retraining magnet used in the TPM system. Magnets can affect pacemakers.
NOTE: The vehicle's tires must not have been rotated above 5 mph (8 km/h) in the last 2 minutes prior to programming.
  1. Connect Chrysler DRB-III® scan tool to vehicle's Data Link Connector (DLC), which is located beneath instrument panel, to right of steering column.
  2. Using scan tool, access "CHASSIS SYSTEM".
  3. Once in "CHASSIS SYSTEM", select "TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR", followed by "MISCELLANEOUS".
  4. Select appropriate function from the next screen displaying the following list options: "PROGRAM LF PRESSURE SENSOR", "PROGRAM RF PRESSURE SENSOR", "PROGRAM RR PRESSURE SENSOR", "PROGRAM LR PRESSURE SENSOR", "PROGRAM MODULE (4 SENSORS)" and "MONITOR".
  5. Place Relearn Magnet (8821) at the valve stem for that wheel as directed by the scan tool. If "PROGRAM MODULE (4 SENSORS)" function has been chosen, scan tool will direct you to left front wheel pressure sensor/transmitter first.
  6. When that wheel's pressure sensor/transmitter has been programmed, scan tool will display "PROGRAM TRANSMITTER COMPLETE" or will automatically direct you to next wheel sensor/transmitter to be programmed.
  7. Remove magnet. If programming the entire module, move the magnet to each of the remaining wheels as directed by scan tool. Each sensor/transmitter will automatically sense the presence of the magnet and begin programming.
    NOTE: When programming the module (all 4 sensor/transmitters), magnet should be moved from wheel to wheel in a clockwise direction starting at left front wheel.
  8. Once "PROGRAM TRANSMITTER COMPLETE" is displayed, exit program function screen. Using scan tool, verify that module programming is complete by looking at tire pressure sensor/transmitter IDs in "SENSOR DISPLAY".
