Tire Pressure Monitoring Replacement Sensor Activation and ID Learning Guidelines
As required by NHTSA, vehicles equipped with a TPM system, include a low tire pressure telltale and a TPMS
malfunction indicator. Some vehicles may be equipped with only the low tire pressure telltale to indicate a low tire
pressure as well as a TPM system malfunction. Please refer to the vehicle owner’s manual for more information on
TPMS warning lamps.

IMPORTANT: Before a sensor can start sending information to the electronic control unit (ECU), the sensor
must be activated. EnTire Solutions sensors are shipped in a storage or nonfunctional mode in order to
conserve battery power; therefore, they need to be activated after having been installed on the wheel. Only
an activated sensor can send tire information to the ECU.
. Replacement Sensor Installation and Activation
1.
Install the replacement sensor on the wheel. (It is recommended to use the EnTire Solutions service
installation poster guidelines when installing a new TPMS sensor).
2. Ensure that all tires are inflated to the vehicle recommended placard pressure and mounted on the vehicle.
3. Turn the ignition ON – The sensor is now activated.
. Sensor ID Learning
1. To learn the new sensor ID, drive the vehicle consistently at 15 mph (24kph) or greater for up to 7 minutes.
2. After 7 minutes, verify that the TPMS malfunction indicator is extinguished, indicating that the new sensor ID
has been learned.
NOTE: If during the sensor learning ID process, the vehicle speed is less than 15mph (24kph), the learning
procedure will be suspended until the speed is increased to greater than 15mph (24kph).
NOTE:
