Without M-MDS Scan Tool

  1. Turn ignition switch to ON position, then turn it back to LOCK position.
  2. Leave the vehicle with the engine off, and wait for about 15 minutes.
  3. After about 15 minutes, drive vehicle at a speed of at least 16 mph (25 km/h) for 10 minutes or more. Tire pressure sensor ID registration is complete when the TPMS warning light is not illuminated. NOTE: If vehicle is driven within 15 minutes of changing tires, the warning light will flash because the sensor ID signal code would not have been registered. If this happens, park the vehicle for about 15 minutes, after which sensor ID signal code will register upon driving vehicle for 10 minutes or more.

Note. Use the LDS (laptop PC). The PDS (pocket PC) does not support wheel unit ID registration and monitoring wheel unit ID.

  6. Leave the vehicle with the engine off, and wait for 15 minutes or more.
