Ignition OFF. Disconnect and inspect all BCM connectors. Repair:

corrosion (install new connector or terminals – clean module pins). damaged or bent pins – install new terminals or pins. pushed-out pins – install new pins as necessary.

Connect the BCM connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly. Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.

Is the concern still present?

Yes

CHECK OASIS for any applicable Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs). If a TSB exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW TSB instructions. If no Technical

Service Bulletins (TSBs) address this concern, Click here to access Guided Routine (BCM).

No

The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by module connections. ADDRESS the root cause of any connector or pin issues.

One or More TPMS Sensors Do Not Train and No Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are Present

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

REFER to: Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - System Operation and Component Description (204-04B Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), Description and Operation).

If the vehicle has been stationary for more than 30 minutes, the TPMS sensors enter a "sleep mode" to conserve battery power. It becomes necessary to wake them up so they transmit the latest tire pressure information to the RTM. REFER to: Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Sensor Activation (204-04B Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), General Procedures).

Possible Sources

TPMS sensors Radio Frequency Interference (RFI)

Visual Inspection and Diagnostic Pre-checks

Inspect for customer electronic devices, such as a cell phone charger or GPS unit. Inspect for non-Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) wheel or run-flat tires. Verify horn operation.

PINPOINT TEST G : ONE OR MORE TPMS (TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM) SENSORS DO

NOT TRAIN AND NO DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS) ARE PRESENT

G1 ATTEMPT TO TRAIN THE TPMS (TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM) SENSORS

NOTE: The BCM has a 2-minute time limit between sensor responses. If the BCM does not recognize any of the 4 TPMS sensors during this time limit, the horn sounds twice and the message center displays TIRE NOT TRAINED REPEAT. The entire procedure must be repeated.

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
