Has anyone reset their TPMS system? I have another set of take off wheels on the way for winter tires and would like to know which reset tool to purchase. Will the tools that work on the previous model GM systems work on our 2019 trucks?

Thanks.

I had Discount Tire attempt to do mine since I have aftermarket wheels and different OEM TPMS sensors but they were unable to since there tool did not include the 2019 Silverado and didn't work when set to 17 or 18 model year either.  I figured I'd wait a few months and try again.  Yo be honest, after a few days, I barely even notice the TPMS light now other than the pop up message that comes up when you start the car

Winter tires arrived (Michelin Ice-X) mounted them on a set of Chevy 2019 Silverado 18 inch wheels with oem TPMS sensors...after about 5 miles, TPMS  warning came up on dash in tach.

 I will order one of these and report back.

There are a bunch on Amazon, I went with this one just because it was cheaper:

That is the one I use, purchased it off ebay 7 years ago and still going strong. 

They run about $7 on ebay. 

 It does work with 2019  TPMS (315 & 433MHz) as  I swapped mine over to my new wheels today.

 

My TPMS sensors were GM part# 13522955   433MHz

 

FYI  - Look at your options code list:

 XL7 indicates 315 MHz TPMS sensors

XL8 indicates 433 MHz TPMS sensors          **** If you do not have either of these codes it is 433MHz.

Good news! Ordered this TPMS reset tool as per the suggestion above and it does work on our 2019 trucks!

http://www.tpmstoolshop.com/wholesale/el-50448-auto-tire-pressure-monitor-sensor.html

 

Was $11.27 delivered. I got the Blue one. Arrived in 3 days.

Used the procedure in the manual for TPMS reset and was done in less than 2 minutes.

 

Thanks for the help. :)

Will my 2009 Silverado relearn the tpms sensors from a new take off wheels and tires from a 2019 or 2020 Silverado?

The TPMS's will have to be relearned by the vehicle.  The tool is like $10 on Amazon and works great.

Search TPMS Reset tool EL-50448. They're available via Amazon, Ebay, etc. and are inexpensive. I have one and it works with my older GM vehicles (2013, 2017) and my 2019 Silverado.

Is a tool necessary?  Several years ago my tires got rotated, but the shop failed to fix it in the computer.  I read the owner's manual and it said to inflate go through a procedure in the dash first, the adjust the air pressure in the tires on a specific order.  It worked.  Iirc, I let some air out until the horn honked.  After the procedure was done I roller my tires to the correct psi.  I didn't have a tpms test, and assumed they were expensive.  I did have a 25 gallon air compressor and put that to good use.

      Of course refrain from political debate but I myself have very dismal hope for what is all going on up here every where we turn so I nodded my head when I saw this joke.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      While waiting for parts I have been working on installing the AC compressor, new accumulator, and orifice tube. Also changed out the high side ball valve (original). The orifice tube that was in there wasn't too bad. Slightly dirty, a little bit of junk, but not blocked. Glad I changed it out.   The accumulator, which should have been a 5 minute job, may have just burned $50. Put some PAG in it, wrote the date and mileage on the side, fresh o-rings and gooey'd up the threads and rings with Nylog. Got everything connected and snugged and was going to vacuum down the system, and....   My manifold gauge won't fit on the port. It's not an R12 service port. It LOOKS like an R134 service port but the diameter is a hair too large. There's a sticker on the accumulator that says it's designed to be used with R12 and R134a systems only. So it's not R1234yf. Even if I reduced the diameter slightly with a file, the shoulder on the port is too large so the quick-connect valve won't lock on. I'm stumped. It's going back, and 50/50 on if they'll give me a refund.   Also, I did a fuel pressure test.... Key on, the gauge spikes to about 60psi and quickly bleeds off, like 2psi per second. The fuel isn't going into the plenum, no smell, starts fine, so I'm guessing there's a bad check valve in the pump and the fuel is just draining back into the tank. oh, hell. But, it shouldn't be a problem, pump primes just fine and the truck starts right up. It just means I can't really ever use fuel pressure to verify a leak at the injector or intake.

      SERCICE ESC message?

      By No F-bdy Bs · Posted

      Got this yesterday out of nowhere. Truck is a 25',6.6 gasser with 8k miles.  Only semi anomaly is that the truck had been sitting, uncranked for 6 days. Elec Stability Control showed immediately upon cranking, not while driving. No drivability issues, just the message. Battery didn't seem to be weak when cranking over.  I drove it, killed it, let it sit a few hrs with no avail.  Truck is 100% stock. No damage.
