and the Body Style of the vehicle, and for the Trigger Selection select LEARN ID.
NOTE: If a TPM-RKE Tool is not available, let the vehicle sit stationary for more then
20 minutes, and then drive the vehicle for a minimum of 10 minutes while
maintaining a continuous speed above 24 km/h (15 mph).
4. Scan each TPM sensor at each road wheel, and record each TPM sensor ID and the
location of that sensor.
5. In wiTech go to the TPM section, select Misc Function then Program Tire sensor ID.
6. Enter each sensor ID in it’s proper location.
7. Clear any DTCs that may have been set in any modules due to this repair procedure.
