View Full Version : Winter grips Threw these puppies on yesterday..I know it's all wheel drive but the 22's just shake the *&^% outta me especially in the winter....
Tonight after thanksgiving dinner out I got a "check tire monitor"..I did do a re-learn with the onboard system and I do have a reset tool but what does this waring mean ?

http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h318/gpchase/IMG_1968.jpg I thought today was Thanksgiving in Canada? Usually means there is a sensor issue, I would reset with your reset tool and all should be well, if not you may want to disconnect the battery for 10 minutes, but the reset tool should fix it unless a sensor was damaged during install. Putting mine on this weekend, we are suppose to get some light snow most of the week. I thought today was Thanksgiving in Canada?

Yeah today is Thanksgiving but two feasts with relatives seems the norm...is the procedure ebrake on,key on,lock/unlock buttons together then 10/2/4/8 oclock,key-off ?
Thanks Resetting the TPMS Identification Codes
Each TPMS sensor has a unique identification
code. Any time you rotate your vehicle’s tires
or replace one or more of the TPMS sensors,
the identification codes will need to be matched
to the new tire/wheel position. The sensors
are matched to the tire/wheel positions in the
following order: driver’s side front tire, passengers
side front tire, passengers side rear tire, and
driver’s side rear tire using a TPMS diagnostic
tool. See your GM dealer for service.
The TPMS sensors may also be matched to each
tire/wheel position by increasing or decreasing
the tire’s air pressure. If increasing the tire’s
air pressure, do not exceed the maximum inflation
pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall.
You will have two minutes to match the first tire/
wheel position, and five minutes overall to match
all four tire/wheel positions. If it takes longer
than two minutes, to match the first tire and wheel,
or more than five minutes to match all four tire
and wheel positions the matching process stops
and you will need to start over.
The TPMS sensor matching process is
outlined below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to RUN with the
engine off.
3. Using the DIC, press the vehicle information
button until the PRESS
V TO RELEARN
TIRE POSITIONS message displays.
4. Press the set/reset button. The horn will
sound twice to indicate the TPMS receiver
is ready, and the TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE
message will display.
5. Start with the driver’s side front tire.
6. Remove the valve cap from the valve
cap stem. Activate the TPMS sensor by
increasing or decreasing the tire’s air
pressure for five seconds, or until a horn
chirp sounds. The horn chirp, which make
take up to 30 seconds to sound, confirms
that the sensor identification code has been
matched to this tire and wheel position.
To decrease air-pressure out of a tire you
can use the pointed end of the valve cap,
a pencil-style air pressure gage, or a key.
7. Proceed to the passenger’s side front tire,
and repeat the procedure in Step 6.
8. Proceed to the passenger’s side rear tire,
and repeat the procedure in Step 6.
9. Proceed to the driver’s side rear tire, and
repeat the procedure in Step 6.
10. After hearing the confirming horn chirp for
the driver’s side rear tire, the horn chirp
will sound two more times to signal the
tire learning mode is no longer active.
Turn the ignition switch to LOCK.
11. Set all four tires to the recommended
air pressure level as indicated on the Tire
and Loading Information label.
12. Put the valve caps back on the valve stems
The spare tire does not have a TPMS sensor.
If you replace one of the road tires with the spare,
the SERVICE TIRE MONITOR message will be
displayed on the DIC screen. This message should
go off once you re-install the road tire containing
the TPMS sensor. Resetting the TPMS Identification Codes

Thanks..but if I use my tool do I still have to enter the reset mode on the DIC Yes go into tire pressure monitor relearn, and then press the reset button and you will get a horn beep, then do the drivers front, passenger front, passenger rear, drivers rear, when you do the last (driver rear) you will get a double horn chirp if it worked Yes go into tire pressure monitor relearn, and then press the reset button and you will get a horn beep, then do the drivers front, passenger front, passenger rear, drivers rear, when you do the last (driver rear) you will get a double horn chirp if it worked
Yup got her done yesterday..no problemo..
Thanks Carl Did my 07' and 08' this morning, of course my 09' has to go to the dealer because GM was KIND enough to take that option out which allows me to program the sensors. :thepan: tanninman 10-15-09, 07:27 AM Nice!!!! I just bought a set also, there is nothing like REAL AWD and REAL WINTER Tires. Mine will go on 1 Nov. I have a friend in the tire Business and that DM-V1 is a big improvement on what was already an excellent tire. Nice!!!!

It's like floating on air..so quiet and smooth..after riding on the 22's...might never take them off :) Yea the first few days riding on 18's after 24's is like driving on air. :) | |
