Using a diagnostic scan tool, carry out the RTM self-test.

Are any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) present in the RTM?

Yes

DIAGNOSE all RTM Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). GO to the DTC Chart: RTM.

No

GO to A3

A3 CHECK THE BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE) TPMS (TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM) STATUS (TPMS_STATUS) PID (PARAMETER IDENTIFICATION)

Using a diagnostic scan tool, view the BCM TPMS_STATUS PID.

Does the TPMS_STATUS PID display SYSTEM FAULT?

Yes

GO to A4

No

GO to A6

A4 CARRY OUT THE TPMS (TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM) SENSOR TRAINING PROCEDURE

Train all 4 TPMS sensors. REFER to: Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Sensor Location Calibration (204-04B Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), General Procedures).

Did all of the TPMS sensors train and did the horn sound when each sensor was trained?

Yes

The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). For information on locating sources of Radio Frequency Interference (RFI), REFER to: Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - System Operation and Component Description (204-04B Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), Description and Operation).

No

GO to A5

A5 REPEAT THE TPMS (TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM) TRAINING

NOTE: A spare tire cannot be programmed to the vehicle. If a damaged road wheel is located in the vehicle and the RTM cannot communicate with it, or if the damaged wheel has been dropped off at a repair facility, the BCM sets a TPMS sensor fault. Repair and remount the road wheel as necessary to restore system operation.

If the spare tire is in use, repair and remount the road wheel as necessary to restore system operation. REFER to: Wheel and Tire (204-04A Wheels and Tires, Removal and Installation). Move the vehicle to rotate the wheels at least one-fourth of a turn. Leave the vehicle doors open. Start the sensor training procedure at a different wheel. REFER to: Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Sensor Location Calibration (204-04B Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), General Procedures).

Did any of the TPMS sensors train and did the horn sound when each sensor was trained?

Yes If only some of the sensors trained, INSTALL a new TPMS sensor for each sensor that

failed to train. REFER to: Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Sensor (204-04B Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), Removal and Installation).

If all the sensors trained, the concern may have been caused by Radio Frequency
