Super video. The tire dealer didn’t reset my TPMS at my last rotation. This video saved me an hour or more of waiting for them to do it. My 2011 Silverado did exactly like the video.

Mr Danner sir thank you for teaching me so much man, I am truly blessed to have found you and all that you know because of you I am on my way to becoming a better instructor

Good thing you guys put this video up . I had a tire that needed switched and Wal Mart was the place that could get me in at the moment. Now I see why apparently there guy was absent on Relearn TPMS day .Also absent on Gitter done day . Hopefully he was there for lug nut day...Thanks guys you showed me something new today .Send more GM Post out .

I purchased a reset tool for under £10. It worked perfectly, all very straightforward. Then I saw this clever video, and realised I could probably have managed without it. However it's less hassle using the tool than having to deflate and inflate 4 tyres every time. I guess, instead of deflating the tyres , you could inflate them a fraction, and that would save the deflate, reflate thingy. Of course you have to do it in less than 5 mins!

thanks Paul for all the knowledge you are sharing with us,, priceless.

Thanks, more straight forward than other vids on this subject.

I just did this in a video for my 2011 Volt. One watcher told me the turn signals were showing me which tire to do next. I did not know it did this. Learn something new every day!

thanks it worked for my 2011 sierra you have to use your original key fob though, 2011 must be the last year this will work on. I used to just rotate my tires before myself without resetting which is fine (you will know your pressures just not exactly which tire is which) but this year I bought new summer rims and I just switched them for my winters and got a service tire system warning, I totally forgot since I have a different set of wheels I would have to relearn them

worked awesome on my 2010 avalanche ltz

Blazer 02ls thanks for the clarification.

IT WORKS !!!!! YOU GOT YOURSELF A SUB

Thank you for the video.Just one comment. It was not that the computer noticed pressure drop. If it can notice, it already knows about the sensor. It is the sudden drop of tire pressure that triggered the sensor inside the wheel to broadcast its ID and pressure info out. The computer just listen and whatever sensor reports during that period, the computer will learn its id. Triggering the sensor by letting air out is not quite reliable and cumbersome. Later they changed the to procedure to using a small trigger device instead of letting air out.

Tnx good video.i reset my tires on my 2010 suburban 👍

Thanks...i was be able to do my Cadillac 2010 SRX

Oh Man I Thank You very much for this video, this explains why my tire readings are all off. How does this work if you've had an aftermarket alarm system put in with new remotes should the factory remotes still work?

Worked Perfectly: 2010 Cadillac DTS thank you.

Before you do this procedure. Turn the auto headlights to the off position. Makes it much easier to see the lit up turn signals

Hey... Thanks!!! I have a 2010 GMC Sierra Denali and this worked like a charm. i did use the end of a Tootsie Pop stick instead of the screwdriver LOL #genius ... OK, I had a few in the cab along with a tire pressure gauge but hey I like to be different ;-)

Also of you come across a tire that has been inflated with any kind of fix a flat or similar brand the tps has to be replaced . Low tire indicator lamp will stay lit or on dic will say that tire is low until a new one is installed and activated .

This did not work on my 2013 Savana. The computer refuses to acknowledge that I let out some air. No horn and does not illuminate the next light. But I did get the "Tire learning active" in my DIC. Is the procedure different for vehicles newer than 2010?

I agree 100%. Bought one off Amazon for GM, listed below. After attempting the let air out procedure on multiple Gm's, I bought the tool. Sometimes the air procedure works, other times it doesn't. The tool is super quick and if it fails to recognize the sensor you know its bad. Kent-Moore EL-50448

Super cool... thanks for the demo. I'd like to mention something if I may... a - " how to... tire shop tip". you know in real world, faster is the key for us as a mechanics... instead of using a pocket screw dr, we use the tire pressure gauge(no air hose connected to it) to release air out of the tire. it is safer for the tire valve but also quick for the job and looks more professional, you know we are we are always in a hurry...and finding a always missing pocket screw is always a PITA. and since the tire gauge is already in your hand it makes more sense.

How to change the tire air pressure threshold? a demo about it will be super, since this is a common recurrent problem. my experience with 2500 HD tires is: most of the Gm Trucks they either come with TPMS threshold too low or too hi. so, no matter what pressure you set in the tire, the TPMS msg and light are always on... the fix is setting up tpms threshold according to tire application. saludos.

i've tried to do it on my tahoo 2013 but it didn't work. gave the two beeps an left signal went on. kept reducing air pressure until signal went off again and learning deactivated at the same time. tried it 4-5 times with the same result.

+Timothy Lingo the tpms light will come on for a tire pressure issue , if it is solid that will refer to being under or over inflated. typically its +/- 5% of spec. the tpms light is normally solid. if your light is flashing its refers to a fault, a sensor didnt learn, battery in senor died and lost signal, broken sensor or in some cases people took the sensors out and placed normal valve stems in the wheels. You can buy a relearn tool , really simple to use for around $100 and as long as you know how to put your car/truck in relearn you can use the tool to relearn your tires but if you take your car/truck to a shop for service majority of them have the correct tools. issues is at the dealership i work which is a GM one when we get other makes in its a hassle to relearn as my tools are for GMs not FORD ect.

If only it was this simple on my Toyota Yaris (Prius C) - you have to connect to the ecu via the OBD2 socket to reprogram the codes or, as I did when fitting winter tires, buy universal sensors and clone the already existing sensors in the summer tires (Program the new sensors with the same codes as the old sensors.)

Hello Scannerdanner. I am having trouble resetting two different GMC vehicles. One is an ‘07 Yukon Denali and the other is an ‘11 Sierra. Neither will confirm the right front sensor. I have had my scanner on it and all sensor batteries are good. Both trucks say unlearned and both trucks say 147.8 psi on the scanner but show dash marks in the DIC. Please shed some light on this if possible. I have been trying on and off for mths on the Yukon and 2hrs on the truck today. On the Sierra today I have reprogrammed the RCDLR, tried changing tire sensor placement as to eliminate possible RF interference, as well as clearing all codes and rerunning the module scan and code check. The only code I get is C0750.

+bgregg55 most shops have a relearn tool to activate the sensors in the tires so the module can pick it up and it learns that way. the senors and modules work off of an RF signal. I work as a tech for a gm dealership after every rotation or replacement of tires/ sensors we put the module in relearn mode and use a tool that sends a RF signal to the sensors that causes it to honk/beep and you go around all 4 tires. But each make is different. some Toyota's have a button on the dash you press and drive the car above 15mph for a distance and it relearns from that. '

If you own a newer Nissan 2012 or newer if I recall. If the TPMS light is on, turn your key on and set your tire pressures. The car will see the change and turn the light off.

... hey Scanner Danner ... i was told that Aftermarket FOB KEYS cannot be used to relearn the tire pressure ... if you hold those two keys down the car does not honk with Aftermarkets ... i recently bought and Aftermarket Dorman Fob Key for my parents recently bought used 2008 Saturn because the OEM remote was broken a long time ago by the original owner ... and when it did not work i called Dorman Tech Line and he said aftermarkets dont cant communicate with the cars TPMS system so i would have to buy an OEM fob key -------- any thoughts on that?

I work for GM for 3 years. They stopped this feature on 2012 and newer vehicles because in my opinion they realized theses sensors have long distance and you'll inadvertently relearn your coworkers tire sensor in a crowded shop doing a routine pressure check and sometimes not realize it. Because these do not set a tire light immediately after they lose the signal the customer may take the vehicle and have a foreign tire sensor learned to the vehicle and eventually have the light come on and cause the customer to come back inconveniently. 2012 and newer and gm body control modules are designed to only to receive the sensors serial number with a radio frequency activating tool. Imagine if you have a faulty sensor stuck in pressure fluctuation mode, it will make every car impossible to relearn properly within a 100 foot radius. It can be a headache to the tech if they don't know the potential to these sensors. They won't teach you what I told you in a service manual. It comes from working a year in a high volume GM dealer by trial and error.

Brandon Tracy - You are correct and the editor won't acknowledge it. The GM Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) is designed to provide information to the customer allowing them to better maintain proper tire pressure in their vehicle. Proper tire pressure is important for optimizing safety, fuel economy, vehicle performance, and tire wear. Because the GM Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) recognizes a unique sensor ID in each tire, a TPM relearn must be performed after every tire rotation. On past model vehicles, there were two procedures to relearn the TPMS: a Dealer Procedure and a Customer Procedure. After putting the vehicle in relearn mode, the Dealer Procedure used a TPM Tool (J-46079) or equivalent to activate each TPM sensor individually (Tool Method). This allowed each rotated tire/TPM sensor ID to be stored in the new corner location. The Customer Procedure required increasing or decreasing air pressure in each tire by one psi (Delta Pressure Method) to active the sensor allowing each rotated tire/TPM sensor ID to be stored in the new corner location. When using either the Dealer or Customer Procedure, there was the possibility of picking up and storing a stray pressure sensor signal ID from another vehicle that may have been broadcasting n the area. If a stray sensor was inadvertently stored, the system would not recognize the stray sensor ID and the vehicle would set a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) and illuminate the TPM System light. To commonize procedures and eliminate the possibility of storing stray sensor signals, starting with Late 2011 Model Year GM vehicles and all vehicles build after that point will support just one TPM relearn procedure - the Dealer Procedure. This change allows both Dealers and Customers a common, faster, and more efficient method to relearn tire pressures after each tire rotation. Because all future TPM Relearns will be performed using the Dealer Procedure, customers wanting to rotate their own tires and perform their own TPM Relearn will be required to utilize a relearn tool. GM has designed and manufactured an inexpensive Relearn Tool (EL-5044 specifically for this application. Owner’s manuals have been updated accordingly, to verify the relearn method to be used, reference the Owner’s Manual - Tire Rotation - TPMS Sensor Matching Process

@@beverlyjennings1638 - The TPMS sensors were only designed to last 5-10 years, depending how much mileage they see (they can go into a lower power 'idle' state when not in use) and the type of weather they see (cold weather really hurts battery life). The biggest issue is that no one knows when to replace them until they have one die...and chances are, that's not around new tires. The best advice is if they're older than five years, change them all on your next set of tires.
