Truck is pretty much where I want it now other than one bug that still bothers me... every time I start it up I get a beep and a message about a TPMS fault on the dash. I looked up the cost of sensors and have no interest replacing them at their price for what they do ($200). Well it's more about tracking it down and actually doing it for something so non essential I guess is the best way I can word it. Is there an easy way to disable and disconnect the tire pressure monitoring system from my display center? It's more of an annoyance than anything at this point. All pressures are good on all four.
Sensor Training (Reset Procedure)
NOTE: The tire pressure monitoring system is not affected by wheel and tire rotation.
NOTE: The tire pressure sensor training procedure must be done on a single vehicle, in an area without radio frequency (RF) noise.
RF noise is generated by electrical
motor and appliance operation, cellular telephones and remote transmitters,
power inverters and portable entertainment equipment.
1.Turn the
ignition switch to the OFF position.
2.Turn the ignition switch from the OFF position to the RUN position three times, ending in the RUN position. Do not wait more than one minute between each key cycle.
3.Press and release the
brake pedal.
4.Turn the
ignition switch to the OFF position.
5.Turn the ignition switch from the OFF position to the RUN position three times, ending in the RUN position. Do not wait more than one minute between each key cycle.
6.The horn will sound once and the TPMS indicator will flash if train mode has been entered successfully. If equipped, the message center displays "TRAIN LF TIRE", place the tire pressure sensor magnet on the valve stem of the
LF tire pressure sensor. The horn will sound briefly to indicate that the tirepressure sensor has been recognized by the
TPMS module.
7.Within two minutes after the horn sounds, place the magnet on the valve stem of the RF tirepressure sensor.
NOTE: If the VSM (TPMS module integral to VSM) does not recognize any one of the
four tire pressure sensors during the tire training procedure, the horn will sound twice and the message center (if equipped) will display "TIRENOT TRAINED REPEAT" and the procedure must be repeated.
8.Repeat Step 7 for the RR and LR
tires.
When the tire training procedure is complete, the horn will sound once and the message center (if equipped) will display "TIRE TRAINING MODE COMPLETE".
