GM Tire Pressure Monitor Sensor TPMS Reset

Item arrived on time. I have a 2016 Chevy Trax and recently I installed some aftermarket rims so I transferred the TPMS from the original rims to the new ones. After doing this you have to reset the TPMS for each wheel which costs a lot at the company. So I decided to get the relearn tool for my self and do it. The process is really simple. 1) Select the tire learn function from the dashboard, the horn will beep twice. 2) The indicator light will remain constantly on to indicate which wheel to do first (it’s the front left first for my vehicle) 3) Place the top of the relearn tool against the tire wall by the valve and press the button. It will blink green and the horn will beep once, when it’s set 4) Check indicator lights to see which wheel is next and repeat step 3 until the rest are completed And your done. Must admit I was skeptical about buying this but it was definitely worth it. FYI - It uses a 9v battery which isn’t included so you will need to purchase one.

First of all the device works as advertised and all of the ones sold on Amazon are the same with the EL-50448 marking and perhaps others. So, just find the best price and shipping requirements you need. The device only assigns the TPM for each tire, FR, FL, RR, RL. It does not calibrate, nor can you calibrate the TPM should your readings be a few pounds off from what ever gauge you are using. But my 2016 Tahoe showed 28psi when it had 37psi and triggered an alert warning light. I used the device to reset the system and the display immediately returned to the correct value. Saved me a trip to the dealer. Well worth the money and works as advertised.

I have a 2013 Chevy Tahoe and I changed my 22 inch wheels to 24 inch. I was able to get the vehicle in learning mode by turning the key to the on position and holding the lock and unlock button on the keyfob down at the same time. On most wheels you hold the tool to the sidewall, press the button (press once, don't hold the button) and the horn beeps. I couldn't get it to work with these larger wheels. I found out that I had to reach around and hold the tool on the INSIDE wall of the tire due to the way the sensors are positioned inside these larger wheels. It worked like a charm. Took less than a minute to do all four wheels once i figured this out.

Real simple to use and quick. Well worth the cost rather than having to go to the stealership which might charge much more than the price of this product.

This is a simple, cheap solution to reprogramming tire pressure monitors after rotating your tires or changing your wheels for the winter. It's very basic but does the job. There are more expensive models than will tell you what information the pressure transmitter is sending that would be more helpful when trouble shooting a problem but this met my needs for a great price. I can't speak to durability since I've only had it two weeks but I've used it on both cars already.

Have a 2018 GMC Sierra 2500. This product worked fine on 3 of the sensors but not the last one. Finally went to Discount tire thinking I had a bad sensor. I didn't. Their tool zipped right through the same procedure and finished perfectly. At $10, it was worth a shot but it was a waste of money unfortunately.

Worked perfectly on 2015 Chevy Malibu 2LT. Simply access the TPMS screen on the dash menu, get into program/relearn mode and then go in a circle around the car: 1...2 4...3 put the device next to each valve stem, click the button once, wait for the horn to beep to let you know the change is accepted, and then you're done in about 15 seconds. Super easy, barely an inconvenience.

The tire shop didn’t use their relearn tool when I had my tires rotated. I bought this tool, and was able to get my Chevy Volt to relearn where each tire was. Now I can do my own tire rotations and use this tool to make the car know where each tire is. This is great especially if you have a tire low on air, you’ll know exactly which one it is without having to break out your tire pressure gauge and check each individual tire.
