Re-learn TPMS after tire rotation?

[SirenRed16]

Ya. Just need to know if we can use those $60 ones on newer trucks. 2015 to 2017

I've seen a few guys on here that have.

I bought this one on ebay for like 20 bucks. It works great on my 2017.

When I bought the sensors they charged me $15 gave them my truck model etc

I guess it was only to set the frequency or something. No idea

They are matching your TPMS to the frequency range your truck came with. There are a few frequency ranges out there so they need to pair it up with the frequency your vehicle can communicate with, otherwise the TPMS will never pair to your truck.

 

I bought this pairing tool from amazon on prime day: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072BK693N/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 

It's the same tool as linked above on ebay for cheaper. Mine came with a 9v battery but it was dead as hell. If you find that when you hold down the pairing button for 5 seconds or longer that the low bat light flashes you need a new battery on the pairing tool. 

 

When I rotated my tires and had to remap the sensors I started at the drivers front tire and went around the truck clockwise (left front>right front>right rear>left rear). It's super easy to pair them up and your horn honks to confirm the tire is paired and the pairing process is completed so you know you did it.

 

My only suggestion is to get a tool that can pair different frequencies if you run multiple vehicles. Confirm by the RPO code what frequency your vehicles work on so you can use one tool for all your vehicles if possible. I am lucky that my Silverado works on the 315mHz frequency the same as my girlfriends Hyundai Accent so we can pair one anothers tires up to the car.

I reset the tire pressure sensors on my friends 2015 Silverado with this unit:

This is the one I ordered this morning

Thats funny. I just had a dealer service and they clearly forgot to relearn my sensors. Kind of annoying but I just air them all up to 40 and be done with it.

didn't read the whole thread, but I bought a Chinese special $20 tool and it works for me.
