With the scan tool, run the "Trigger Module Test Routine" under "Miscellaneous Functions" for the "WCM" and follow the procedure. NOTE: Three trigger modules are located in three of the four wheel wells on the vehicle to provide the WCM with the location of the tire pressure sensors on the vehicle. A fourth transponder is not necessary in the remaining wheel well due to the process-of-elimination theory. Once the system knows the location of the first three sensors it assumes the location of the fourth tire pressure sensor. The locations of the trigger modules can vary for each vehicle. Make sure the vehicle has trigger modules, and that are in the right locations. After every repair, the trigger module test routine must be rerun in order to verify the fix. Did the Left Front Trigger Module have NO as a result? Yes Go To 2 . No Repair intermittent condition. Refer to «STANDARD PROCEDURE»(ref-485546-S13917643862012071300000) and perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST.
  2. (D508) COM-LIN TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR LAN CIRCUIT OPEN Turn the ignition off. Disconnect the Tire Pressure Trigger Module. Disconnect the WCM. With an Ohmmeter measure the resistance of the (D508) COM-LIN TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR LAN CIRCUIT. Is the resistance below 5 Ohms? Yes Go To 3 . No Repair or replace the open circuit. Refer to «STANDARD PROCEDURE»(ref-485546-S13917643862012071300000) and perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST.
  3. (F202) FUSED IGNITION SWITCH OUTPUT (RUN) CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE Turn the ignition off. Disconnect the Tire Pressure Transponder harness connector. Ignition on, engine not running. Using a 12-volt test light connect to ground, check the (F202) Fused Ignition Switch Output (Run) circuit. NOTE: The test light should be illuminated and bright. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery. Is the test light illuminated and bright? Yes Go To 4 . No Repair the (F202) Fused Ignition Switch Output (Run) circuit for an open circuit or high resistance. Refer to «STANDARD PROCEDURE»(ref-485546-S13917643862012071300000) and perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST.
  4. (Z904) GROUND CIRCUIT(S) OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE Using a 12-volt test light connect to battery voltage, probe each of the (Z904) Ground circuit(s). NOTE: The test light should be illuminated and bright. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery. Does the test light illuminate brightly? Yes Go To 5 . No Repair the (Z904) Ground circuit(s) for an open circuit or high resistance. Refer to «STANDARD PROCEDURE»(ref-485546-S13917643862012071300000) and perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST.
  5. (D508) COM - LIN TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR LAN CIRCUIT SHORT TO VOLTAGE Turn the ignition off. Disconnect all three tire pressure transponder harness connectors. Ignition on, engine not running. Measure the voltage of the (D508) COM - LIN Tire Pressure Monitor LAN circuit. Is there any voltage present? Yes Repair the (D508) COM - LIN Tire Pressure Monitor LAN circuit for a short to voltage. Refer to «STANDARD PROCEDURE»(ref-485546-S13917643862012071300000) and perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST. No Go To 6 .

Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms? Yes Repair the (D508) COM - LIN Tire Pressure Monitor LAN circuit for a short to ground. Refer to «STANDARD PROCEDURE»(ref-485546-S13917643862012071300000) and perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST. No Go To 7 .
  7. (D508) COM - LIN TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR LAN CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE Use a jumper wire with one end connected to ground and the other to the (D508) COM - LIN Tire Pressure Monitor LAN circuit in the Front Left Pressure Tire Transponder harness connector. Using a 12-Volt test light connected to battery voltage, probe the (D508) COM - LIN Tire Pressure Monitor LAN circuit in the TPM harness connector.

Refer to «STANDARD PROCEDURE»(ref-485546-S13917643862012071300000) and perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST.
  9. CHECK FOR ADDITIONAL TRIGGER MODULE COMMUNICATION RELATED DTCs With the scan tool, select Network View and select Advanced. Is there more than one module with active DTCs "Logged Against" the WCM? Yes Replace/update the WCM in accordance with the service information. Refer to «STANDARD PROCEDURE»(ref-485546-S13917643862012071300000) and perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST. No Replace the Tire pressure trigger Module in accordance with the service information.

For a complete wiring diagram, refer to appropriate SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS article .

The Sentry Key remote Entry Module (SKREEM) is also known as the Wireless Control Module (WCM). Depending upon model and year of the vehicle being serviced it may be equipped with either a SKREEM or a WCM.

Perform the following after completion of a diagnostic repair

Note. When entering the PIN, care should be taken because the WCM will only allow 3 consecutive attempts to enter the correct PIN. If 3 consecutive incorrect PIN's are entered the WCM will Lock Out the scan tool. To exit Lock Mode, the ignition key must remain in the Run position for one hour. All accessories must be off. A battery charger connected to the battery during this time period is recommended.

Note. On vehicles equipped with a premium Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) system, when the WCM and/or the spare tire pressure sensor is replaced with a new unit, a diagnostic scan tool MUST be used to run a routine that allows the WCM to be programmed with the ID number and location of the spare tire pressure sensor mounted in the wheel of the spare tire. Follow the programming steps outlined in the diagnostic scan tool for "Learn Spare Tire Sensor ID" under "Miscellaneous Functions" for the "WCM/Wireless Control Module" menu item as appropriate. In addition, if the WCM is replaced, the spare tire must be dismounted from its wheel to access and note the ID number on the spare tire pressure sensor so that the ID code for that sensor can be programmed into the new WCM.

  1. Reconnect the previously disconnected components and connectors.
  2. Obtain the vehicle's unique Personal Identification Number (PIN) assigned to it's original WCM. This number can be obtained from the original vehicle invoice or from your Service Manager or Parts Manager.

Note. If the PCM and the WCM are replaced at the same time, program the PCM VIN into the PCM first.

Note. The PCM stores the secret key information. If the WCM ever needs to be replaced, the secret key information can be retrieved from the PCM and then transferred to the WCM for security use.

During PCM/ECM replacement, use the following steps to ensure transfer of the secret key information from the WCM to the new PCM

  1. First replace the PCM/ECM with the original WCM still connected to the vehicle.
  2. Using the appropriate Service Information program the new PCM/ECM. (This will ensure the Secret Key Transfer from the original WCM into the new PCM/ECM).
  3. Now replace and program the WCM (if necessary). This will retain the Secret Key from the PCM/ECM back into the new WCM. NOTE: If this vehicle is equipped with a Steering Column Lock Module, it must be replaced along with the WCM.
  4. With the scan tool, select Miscellaneous Functions, WCM/Wireless Control Module. Then select the desired procedure and follow the display on the scan tool.
  5. If the vehicle is equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring System program the Placard Pressure Values into the WCM.
  6. Ensure all the customer's keys have been programmed into the new module if necessary.
  7. With the scan tool, erase all DTCs. Perform 5 ignition key cycles, leaving the key on for at least 90 seconds per cycle.
  8. With the scan tool, read WCM DTCs.
