•TPMS Calibration
a) Check tire pressure on all tires to make sure you are at over 38 psi in all tires.
b) Set parking brake
c) Turn on Key, then quickly turn headlamps on and off 4 times
d) 2 horn beeps sound to signal you are now entering the 5 minute calibration mode. The User Manual is wrong since the TPM ICON does NOT FLASH as documented.
e) Go to left front tire and inflate or deflate for least 10 seconds
f) Wait for beep to signal ready to move on
g) Go to right front tire and inflate or deflate for at least 10 seconds
h) Wait for beep to signal ready to move on
i) Go to right rear tire and inflate or deflate for at least 10 seconds
j) Wait for beep to signal ready to move on
k) Go to left rear tire and inflate or deflate for at least 10 seconds
l) Wait for beep to signal ready to move on
m) Turn the key to off to lock position - most people would conclude the reset should be done at this point.
•When you now turn your key back on and the DIC TPMS message is still there after all your hard work, the trick is you have to actually drive the vehicle before the TPM reset is finalized. The manual should at least note this requirement.
You don't have to touch the spare other that make sure pressure is up before you start.
If you take more than 5 minutes, you have to start over with the ignition off. If after all this, and the DIC message is still there, you might have a dead battery in one of your sensors.
