Why won't this system re-learn the new sensors I bought from the dealers? I've had them chk the part numbers twice and the p/n's are correct.

I go through the whole procedure like the manual states to do, the horn beeps with every sensor and beeps twice on the last sensor and I'm starting at the frt driverside wheel and ending at the back driverside wheel. After all that the dash board reads service TPMS. Took it to the dealer and the same thing happened to them. Anyone else have this issue and how did you fix it?

Personal I'd like to just disable the TPMS all together.

having the same issue here spend over $150 on it so far they can't fix it.... I pulled my cluster and put tape over the bulb... I'll live with the 30 second :Service TPMS message it's not like it stays on the info center to remind you you truck isn't right.... I think it can be disabled with a GM tech 2 scanner... we have one at work I just need to sneak out to the parking lot with it and try it.... No dealer will do it it's illegal. at least in the states it is.....

I would buy the tool if I knew it would work. The dealer was using there re-learn tool and still nothing.

Do your air pressures show up when you scroll through the DIC? If so you probably have a bad receiver or antenna. If they do not show up at all definitely a bad receiver if only one is not showing the proper reading then you hve a bad sensor. When I use my Orange tester on mine I can check the sensor for Tempature, Pressure and battery life. If all of those are OK then it must be the internal system in the vehicle and not the sensors. It may have an intermitent short or some other connector flaw. I assume that the dealer's scan tool can also test the individual sensors, so that should eliminate them.

"Update"

I've now learned why my TPMS is not working after doing some searching on here and found a topic about the TPMS receiver. When I installed my GM extended range 2 way remote the receiver for the remote which is the same one for the TPMS needs to be re learned, but it has to be done at the dealer with there programmer, at the same time they re-learn the new 2way key fob. So it's looks like I'll have to pay them a visit and get rid of the message and warning light on the dash.

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65

      Factory front brake rotors...defect?

      By Chris80s · Posted

      On my wife's 2020 Blazer (~69000 miles), we started to notice the brakes pulsating at faster speeds. Typically around town you don't notice anything, but highway/interstate driving you will notice it. I decided to pull of the front tires and look at the brakes. I figured with the milage, the pads should be wearing out to their life span, but they actually looked decent. Still with "meat" on them. One pad has a ridge wearing in it, and that same rotor is showing the ridge too. That's not the concerning part...the other rotor appears to have a raised bump on it!  The picture make it look like a pimple! Very odd and strange! NOTE: These are the factory brakes and rotors.   I'm attaching pictures of the front brakes and what they look like ate ~69000 miles.
