A question here.

I put my winter tires and wheels fromy 2019 Silverado 2500HD onto my new 2021 Silverado 3500HD  and the truck will not read the TPMS sensors. The tire shop said the dealer needs to reprogram the sensors to the new truck. Took it to the dealer and they say that this cannot be done even though the TPMS part numbers are identical between the years and that I need to buy new sensors for the new truck. Any help would be appreciated as this makes no srnse to me! Thanks in advance.

Looks like I found the issue. Had another tire shop dismount one tire and check the TPMS, its part #84961888. The shop ran the number and both that one and my 2021 part number are listed as correct for the 2019 Silverado. Seems with the body style change in 2019, (1500's got new body while 2500's and 3500's kept old body), both numbers were used interchangably. But the 84961888 will not work with 2020 and up even though both are 433mhz and both work in the 2019. The Tirerama shop has ordered me the new sensors and will be here Wednesday. Another couple hundred bucks gone.

This is certainly not what we like to hear, Carter. Our team would be more than happy to take a closer look into the concerns with the TPMS sensors and your new Silverado. To do so, please send an email to [email protected] with ATTN: Carter Bouslaugh/GM Trucks in the subject line. Please include your contact information, VIN, a brief description of your concern, and the name of your preferred dealership. We look forward to hearing from you.

Yupp -- and newdude is trying to get the OP to verify that the part number/frequency for both sets of sensors.

Some part listings show multiple part numbers for the years in question. 

Verifying what they are may help determine the solution -- and determine if the dealer is correct that new sensors are needed.

 

No matter what tool is available, if the frequency of the sensors does not match the frequency of the vehicle they will not be able to be paired.

 

Of course, this is why many tire shops use dual frequency sensors.

Slightly higher sensor cost, but then it doesn't matter what the vehicle frequency is.  Great convenience to the tire shop.

 

 

 

That's why I asked for his old VIN. OP's signature shows he's in Montana, and I have a serious mental problem so I checked all 38 used 2019 Silverado HD trucks for sale on Cars.com in a 500MI radius. 

 

Every single one of those trucks were RPO code XL7 for 315mHz frequency.

2019 LT new body style:

I just happen to be going through something similar. Bought new wheels n tires with new sensors. They are schrader 315/433 

I can activate the relearn, 2 beeps,  and tried the air down method found on YT,  but no horn sound. I read a bit further and found the new 2019 LT would need the relearn tool. 

So I purchased JDIAG EL-50448 TPMS relearn tool for GM sold on Amazon... so we`ll see if that does it...

So far 4 relearn tools have not worked. The double beep "relearn ready" beeps are easy to obtain, but the truck refuses to recognize the sensors, even though the relearn tools all verify they are in place and communicating at proper 433mhz frequency.

COUPLE HUNDRED???? You can buy sets of 4 sensors new on ebay for $30-40. I have bought several of both frequency and have had no issues pairing them to appropriate vehicles with my cheapo relearn tool.

Oh, and you installed them yourself for free too?

I will know more tomorrow when the tool gets here, if it doesnt work then I`ll be on the phone with Discount tire to find out why.

update, received the relearn tool today, and went right out to the truck to try it out. Bazzinga! it worked great. heard the horn beeps went onto the next until done. display now shows the tpms. From what I know DTD installed Schrader brand 315/433 dual freq sensors in the new wheels... So glad I got this done, and for $12.xx for the tool, def worth a shot...

Correct, the airing down method may have only worked up until 2013 for trucks and 2014 for SUVs.  I bought the tool myself 2 years ago for around $15 on eBay.  Have used it twice since.

      injector cleaner 2021 2.7 1500 silverado

      By TheGeek · Posted

      From what I gather, you have a 2.7 Diesel  You cannot use Chevron gas in it.  Howes has a diesel add-in and it states it cleans injectors.  Me personally, wouldn't bother with it.  If it's not broke, don't fix it.     Just my two cents worth.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By KARNUT · Posted

      Looking up on the web you can the information that would seem obvious. You asked engine components to do more. You get more wear. The answer is they can last just as long but required more maintenance. Apparently having to change lifters, cam and associated components are maintenance or repairs. In some research the normal life span of valve train components are 80-100 miles with 3-5K miles oil change. So the next logical conclusion would be cost per mile. I use that analogy with my wife all the time with vehicles. My Odyssey is approaching 170K. The cost per mile will go up at 200K with maintenance. Looking at a low cost car. A K-4 with a 10-10 warranty. Selling my Ridgeline that’s about to hit the same maintenance milestone. My argument becomes not only I get worry free driving. But at no cost increases. Because I take the money from my Ridgeline and maintenance savings and other potential savings. I’m driving for free. So tying it with a bow. It makes you wonder. Is this a grand conspiracy by the auto makers? Raise the potential maintenance high enough. Buyers by extended warranty to 100K miles. Do the minimum maintenance required. Trade in at the warranty end. How long should they last? That question is what keeps people up at night. The answer is much more complicated than it used to be.

      Could you cite your source on this?  I cannot find any reference to the US secretly taking the oil.  I find references that the US helped oil tankers move through the Strait of Hormuz, but nothing about what you're stating.

      Gas Prices

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      Since the media YOU and your buddies are programmed to watch failed to mention this, I'll fill you in.   Trump admitted today that we've grabbed 150 MILLION barrels of oil from the Iranian tankers locked in the Strait by our Navy. We turned off their transponders, took them out to sea in the dark of night since they have zero radar capabilities anymore, offloaded every drop onto another vessel, and put them back by morning so no one was the wiser. That oil has been en-route THROUGHOUT the entire conflict.   Main reason he admitted this is to let even guys on our own side who joined leftists in complaining about the prices that he hears us all, and has taken steps to make sure this didn't spiral into a BAD situation ... just like the mainstream media has been PRAYING would happen, just so they could gloat. Amazes me how these people are rooting for the destruction of THEIR OWN HOME, just to make a President they don't agree with or like look bad! That's next level TDS!   I know your not capable of giving our President the benefit of the doubt, again due to your deep programming, but THIS is why oil never hit $150 a barrel as predicted by your programmers, AND the reason oil continues falling. Like I said before, Trump's got a plan, and this is proof of it. By the end of his term, we're going to be in GREAT shape for a change!   Since I just spent $3,000 this week on #2 heating oil and gasoline, the war most certainly is ending! 🤣   https://mxmnews.com/article/ba359ac9-2711-4851-92de-187f2400f2dd?breaking-trump-cancels-iran-strikes-deal-now-approved-by-all-parties
