Tire Pressure Monitor System RECALIBRATION

CAUTION: DO NOT recalibrate TPM system until all problems are fixed and tire pressure in all 4 tires has been adjusted. If recalibration is done when tire pressures are incorrect, TPM system will not work properly and may not set an alert when a tire pressure is low or high.
  1. Turn ignition switch to OFF position.
  2. Ensure all tire pressures are adjusted to the pressure recommended on tire pressure label.
  3. Turn ignition switch to ON position, with engine off.
  4. Press and hold the MODE button until DIC display reads "LOW TIRE PRESSURE HOLD SET TO RESET".
  5. Press and hold SET button until a chime sounds and "TIRE PRESSURE RESET" is displayed.
  6. System will now sound a chime 3 times, and DIC will display "TIRE PRESSURE NORMAL".
    NOTE: If low tire pressure warning message is still set, TPM system has not reset. Repeat procedure.
  7. After resetting, the TPM system requires up to 5 miles (8 km) of flat, smooth road, straight line driving in each of the 4 speed ranges (about 10-20 minutes in each range) to complete the calibration process:
    • 19-40 mph (31-65 km/h).
    • 40-59 mph (65-95 km/h).
    • 59-74.5 mph (95-120 km/h).
    • 74.5-90 mph (120-145 km/h).
    NOTE: The EBCM learns tire pressure calibration for each speed range independently. In Calibration Mode, EBCM has only partially learned tire pressure calibration for speed range and has limited detection capability for a tire pressure condition. In Detection Mode, EBCM has fully learned tire pressure calibration for speed range and has full detection capability for a tire pressure condition.
NOTE: Learning process does not need to be completed during a single trip.
