TPMS TOOLOVERVIEW
Note
: With most vehicles, when the vehicle is in “learn
mode” the vehicle will also confirm that the TPM sensor
has communicated with the ECM with a series of horn
chirps.
Recommended Vehicle Service Procedure
Read Sensor Test
Before servicing the tires/wheels using the
TPMS TOOL
,
trigger each of the vehicle's tire pressure sensors to make sure
they are working properly.
This will eliminate accountability associated with replacing
previously damaged or defective sensors. Triggering sensors will
not change the vehicle settings because the vehicle has yet to be
put into learn/retraining mode.
Triggering sensors allows damaged or defective sensors to be be identified. Some vehicles do not
report a damaged or defective sensor condition on the instrument cluster for up to 20 minutes.
Note
: If the sensors do not trigger, please refer to the Troubleshooting section of this Guide.
For vehicles that require relearning, please see Section 2.0 below
Learning TPMS Systems
With the vehicle in learn mode, begin by triggering the driver's front
left (LF) wheel sensor.
Note:
Many vehicles will provide an audible beep confirming that
the sensor ID has been learned by the vehicle on board computer.
The communication between the sensor and the on-board TPM module will
also confirmed on LCD display of the
TOOL
by showing the sensor ID
Trigger all wheel sensors in a clockwise rotation, until all the vehicle sensors
have been retrained. (RF then RR, ending with LR)
After triggering the driver's rear wheel sensor, some vehicles horns will
chirp twice, indicating that the TPM system has been relearned.
1 Start FL
4 End RL
Fig. 5
FR 2
RR 3
For vehicles that do not require relearning we recommend you trigger each wheel sensor, one final time, to
make sure they are working correctly prior to releasing the vehicle to the customer.

Possible Reasons that the tool does not detect a sensor:
1. Tool Antenna is not positioned correctly on the tire
2. Sensor battery has expired
3. Wrong sensor part number was installed
4. Technician has removed sensor from the tire
5. Aftermarket sensor was not programmed with tool
6. Indirect system works off ABS wheel sensor speed
2.
SERVICE TPMS
Servicing TPM System to ensure the dash light is not illuminated maybe required when
adding air, rotating tires, or replacing a sensor.
Servicing may require the use of the TPMS trigger tool and a device to access the OBDII
Port. Two methods are shown
1. TPMS tool w/optional OBDII Module
2. TPMS tool with an existing diagnostic scan tool.
