Memorizing the Tire Pressure Sensor ID: Procedure

  1. Tire Pressure Sensor ID - Memorize

    Memorizing a Tire Pressure Sensor ID 

    All four sensor IDs must be memorized to the TPMS control unit whenever you do any of these actions:

    • Replace the Keyless Access/TPMS Control Unit.
    • Replace the tire pressure sensor.
    • Substitute a known-good wheel with tire pressure sensor.
    NOTE:
    • To ensure the TPMS control unit memorizes the correct sensor ID, the vehicle with the new tire pressure sensor must be at least 10 ft (3 m) away from other vehicles that have sensors.
    • When replacing the keyless access/TPMS control unit, use the HDS to memorize sensor IDs.

    Memorizing a Tire Pressure Sensor ID Automatically 

    After rotating the tires or replacing a tire pressure sensor, drive the vehicle for at least 40 seconds at a speed of 15 mph (24 km/h) or more, and all the sensor IDs are memorized automatically.

    NOTE:

    After the sensor IDs are memorized, reduce the pressure in all four tires to less than the appropriate specification, and check to see that the four tire indicators come on.

    Memorize a Tire Pressure Sensor ID with the HDS 

    The HDS can memorize the sensor ID of a new tire pressure sensor or a previously memorized sensor ID.

    1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    2. Connect the HDS to the DLC

    3. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    4. Make sure the HDS communicates with the vehicle and the TPMS control unit. If it does not communicate, go to the DLC circuit troubleshooting - Refer to: DLC Circuit Troubleshooting (2016 2017 2018), or DLC Circuit Troubleshooting (Without CAN Gateway) (2019), or DLC Circuit Troubleshooting (With CAN Gateway) (2019)

    5. Memorize the tire pressure sensor ID by following the screen prompts on the HDS.

    NOTE:
    • See the HDS Help menu for specific instructions.
    • When replacing the keyless access/TPMS control unit, use the HDS to memorize sensor IDs.
    • After the sensor IDs are memorized, reduce the pressure in all four tires to less than the appropriate specification, and check to see that the four tire indicators come on.

    6. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
