Transmitter Wake-Up Operation
Note. This procedure must be done after replacement of a low tire pressure warning transmitter or BCM. New replacement transmitters are provided asleep and must first be woken up using a transmitter activation tool (J-45295) before ID registration can be performed.
- Turn ignition switch ON. Hold the transmitter activation tool against the front left tire near the transmitter. Press the button for 5 seconds. The hazard warning lamps will flash twice.
- Repeat this procedure for each tire in the following order: FL, FR, RR, RL.
- After completing wake up of all transmitters, make sure low tire pressure warning lamp goes out.
TPM Learn Mode Description
The tire pressure monitor (TPM) system uses the remote control door lock receiver (RCDLR), exterior lamp switch, 4 RF transmitting pressure sensors and the serial data circuit to perform the TPM learn mode functions. The sensor learn procedure must be performed after every tire rotation, RCDLR replacement, or sensor replacement. Once the TPM learn mode has been enabled, each of the sensor's unique identification (ID) codes can be learned in to the RCDLR's memory. When a sensor ID has been learned, the RCDLR sends a serial data message to the BCM to sound a horn chirp. This verifies the sensor has transmitted its ID and the RCDLR has received and learned it. The RCDLR must learn the sensor Ids in the proper order to determine correct sensor location. The first learned ID is assigned to the left front location, the second to right front, the third to right rear and the fourth to left rear.
