EDIT:SOLVED thanks to Major Tom. See Below

 

Had the TPMS sensors, that I ordered the truck with, installed on the wheels/tires by Americas Tire. They are the ones that came with the truck 4T+ I believe they said on the side.

 

Cannot pair using both the manual method of letting air out or the other method which uses a programmer which I bought off Amazon.

I did verify the transmitter/receiver is mounted behind the license plate.

 

Any thoughts?

i have 35 foot 5th wheel and had constant issues with pairing them to my new 2024 sierra hd  dealer finally got up and said the sensors are too far away from the truck receiver behind plate . specs call for max distance of 23 feet .

my is 22 feet will catch front tires but wont sync to rear tires which are further away . duramax forum has a thread about relocated the receiver below the plate to improve reception .finally there is a thread showing it relocated to the trailer with an extension cable . i will try to drop the receiver down and give it another try . the dealer was mildly helpful but they dont know much either . measure from the receiver to the back of your tire to check distance . the arm tool does not work for me either used manual method . hope this helps . GM has not properly tested this on different trailers .

I had the tires off the trailer and placed them one foot from the license plate as well to see if that was part of the issue. I still could not pair. My trailer is a 25 foot trailer so distance doesn't seem to be an issue.

I have a 40' fifth wheel, just about every time I rotate trailer tires or have them replaced, I have problem getting the trailer TPMS system working.  What has worked for me is deleting the trailer profile and setting up a new one.  Remember to record the trailer miles before deleting the old profile, if it matters to you.

I have zero miles since I just bought the truck but I will try that!

You are a genius. That worked FIRST time after I deleted and added a new trailer.

 

I owe you a beer or two or three...

Next question is the only way to see the trailer pressures is by going into the trailer mode or can they be on the same screen while a map is showing?

Just check to trailer screen after you start rolling, and then go back to your map screen.  If you set up the max pressure, the truck will let you know in the DCI if a tire gets hot or pressure goes too high.  It saved me twice on our last trip chasing the eclipse from Arizona to central Texas and back.

 

I already drank that beer when I gave up troubleshooting and just deleted the old profile and started with a new one!

looking to get the tool to set up the tpms system on my2024 denali altimate for a 5th wheel RV I'm picking up soon. When I look on amazon, these reset tools are 10 bucks to 15 bucks, but when I query 2024 gmc, they all appear, but in one of the pictures it show compatibility, some units only go to 2023 DRW??? how to know if these units will work with 2024 GMC? or is it to just see if they cover 433hz is good enough?

    • It seems fine because it pulls everything out of a hot engine. I’m not going to worry about a thimble full with 5K oil changes with synthetic oil. Every other oil change is at Honda they pull the plug. I watch them through the process. It turns out going to Honda what amounts to their normal oil change intervals.
    • I tried tapping it.  This might sound like a dumb question, you should feel vibration or some type of noise when it turns on? Can someone please verify? Thank you all!
    • I feel better now for my own view point and actions or lack there of towards the dealership service theme reading your post and others. GM corporate is who offers the two free oil changes on the HD trucks and I bought my truck in Feb of 2025 and those oil change offers run out within 2 years I believe and I highly doubt I will be using either one of them. I had asked if I could officially give those free services to another customer ( a friend ) and they said no, its all a GM corporate thing based on the vehicle in question. What that service advisor did however was go into a little story about how such and such customer was denied engine warranty because he had done his own oil changes because then they are not documented ... you see where that goes and so an employee playing the game of scaring the customer into having the service work done there most certainly triggered my thought process. At a later date I did talk to the person who handles warranty claims at the dealership and she said to be sure to document the oil changes and keep receipts for the oil and filter ( coped the receipts from cases of Mobil oil and case of filters I bought from them ) and the vehicles VIN, the date of service, mileage etc and staple that together as a record I would give them if that was ever needed and I keep my own log book for services for each vehicle as well. Oh and about 8 months after I bought the truck the dealer starts calling me to offer a maintenance service since they haven't seen my vehicle show up on their system ... for the mere fee of 300.00 Canadian to change the oil and rotate the tires and a few other minor checks and I declined the offer, I get the call again a couple of months later for the same thing and she could tell I was not interested and she asked if they should take my name off the call list and I said yes, do that !.    By the way did you happen to keep your factory oil filter to open it up and see the surprises inside as I expect some will show up as per the odd little sliver of metal shaving and particles that the filter does trap along with bits of grey silicone sealer that come off of the inside edge of mating surfaces. I have cut open every filter so far on my truck although few miles but have changed the oil often and the second filter was vastly better with very little of anything, that first filter was the unsettling one as I expected it would be. 
    • I get why they do this…but man…not ideal. I only extract on inboard boat engines because the drains are buried and even then I hate it because it’s easy to leave a quart behind with that method.   They should market it as an “oil refresh” not oil change!
    • I only get oil changed where I can watch. Valvoline pulls through the dipstick into a see thru glass. When done they show me the dipstick. About the only way they can mess up is using the wrong oil. But that secret wouldn’t stay secret long. Honda uses TQ wrenches on everything. You can watch through a plate glass window. Discount tires does that with tires. Trust but verify.
