New TPMS not working...? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I just put my new wheels on yesterday(came with factory TPMS already installed) and the TPMS aren't syncing...
Can somebody tell me how to get the car to relearn the the new TPMS?

Try deflating the tires to about 10 psi one by one. Fill each one back up. Worked for me me when I was having TPMS problems.

You sure you have TPMS? I was "assured" by a member on here that the wheels I bought had them, but I pulled the tires, it was the valve stem only. Every other wheel I have syncs like Slayer said. Make sure you pull the e-brake, and hit set/clear while on the tire monitor screen. Key on, not running.

I have TPMs! I paid for them to be installed on the wheels when I bought them...I just need to sync them with the system...

So I just let air in an out. I don't have to listen for any special noises or anything?

Turn the key to on, not running.
Set e-brake
Navigate to the tire pressure menu
push the set/clear button on the stalk.
the horn should beep twice
Let some air out of the drivers front tire until horn beeps once
Do the same for passenger front tire until horn beeps once
Do the same for passenger rear tire until horn beeps once
Do the same for drivers rear tire until horn beeps once
Horn will now beep twice
Done

MLAZ1990 · 04-20-2014, 02:51 PM

Yeah that's what I did and the horn didn't beep

Kid · 04-20-2014, 02:53 PM

When you push the button at the pressure monitor screen, does it ask if you want to reset?

Nope. They are new TPMS on new wheels...you can't reset new TPMS...I'm an idiot!

That's weird. It should ask you if you want to reset regardless of new or old. When I switch my summer or winter tires, I have to reset them. Have you checked in your manual. Maybe the 2LS is different?

I dot know where it is

Kid · 04-20-2014, 03:13 PM

Well, here is what your manual will say. No matter what TPMS you have, if you can't get into learn mode, they won't sync.

I don't understand...how could this be happening? I paid the wheel place to put TPMS on the wheels...

Kid · 04-20-2014, 03:24 PM

The problem is not your sensors. You're not getting your car into learn mode. If you are not seeing the reset yes/no, you'll never be able to sync the TPMS.
