Retraining Tire Sensors To EVIC
The EVIC can be trained to recognize the source locations of the Sensor/Transmitter signals. The training procedure is given below:
- From the Programmable Features List select "RETRAIN TIRE SENSORS Y/N" using the EVIC MENU button.
Use the STEP button to select and the MENU button to confirm "YES". The EVIC will initiate the following procedure:
- A display will prompt the user to: "TRAIN DRIVER FRONT SENSOR". At this point the user must set the left front tire Sensor/Transmitter to learn mode by positioning a magnet (Relearn Magnet 8821) over the valve stem for at least 5 seconds. The Sensor/Transmitter in the front left tire will transmit a message indicating to the EVIC that it is in learn mode. When the EVIC has received this message and is assured that it has learned an ID, the EVIC will request a horn chirp via a bus message and then display the next train request. The EVIC will allow 60 seconds from the first train request display to the receipt of a unique learn ID message from the first Sensor/Transmitter and 30 seconds for each succeeding wheel. If either of these timers expires, the EVIC will abort the training procedure and revert to previous settings. The EVIC will not store one ID for multiple locations.
- The EVIC will request the initiation of a training sequence for each tire, one-by-one in a clockwise direction around the vehicle (Left Front, Right Front, Right Rear, and Left Rear).
If the vehicle is equipped with the HomeLink® feature and a HomeLink® button is pressed at any time during the training procedure, the EVIC module will immediately exit the training procedure, discard any ID's learned in the current session and perform the HomeLink® function. After the button is released, the module will display "RETRAIN TIRE SENSORS? NO".
The training procedure can be stopped at anytime by pressing the C/T, STEP, RESET, or MENU button. When any of these buttons are pressed the EVIC will display "TRAINING ABORTED" until another button is pressed and then display "RETRAIN TIRE SENSORS? NO". Sensor/transmitter replacement or tire rotation will require retraining of the EVIC.
