ignition CHEVROLET MONTE CARLO 2007 6.G Repair Manual

The TPMS sensors may also be matched to each
tire/wheel position by increasing or decreasing
the tire’s air pressure. When increasing the tire’s
pressure, do not exceed the maximum ination
pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall.
You will have two minutes to match each tire and
wheel position. If it takes longer than two minutes to
match any tire and wheel position, the matching
process stops and you will need to start over.
The TPMS matching process is outlined below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to RUN with the
engine off.
3. Using the DIC, press the vehicle information
button until the LEARN TIRE POSITIONS
message displays.
4. Press the set/reset button to allow the system
to learn the tire positions. The horn will sound
twice to indicate the receiver is ready, and
the TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message
will display. The TPMS system is ready for
the sensor matching process to begin.
5. Start with the driver’s side front tire.6. Remove the valve cap from the tire’s valve
stem. Activate the TPMS sensor by increasing
or decreasing the tire’s air pressure for
ve seconds, or until a horn chirp sounds. The
horn chirp, which may take up to 30 seconds to
sound, conrms that the sensor identication
code has been matched to the tire/wheel
position. To decrease the tire’s air-pressure
use the pointed end of the valve cap, a
pencil-style air pressure gage, or a key.
7. Proceed to the passenger’s side front tire,
and repeat the procedure in Step 6.
8. Proceed to the passenger’s side rear tire,
and repeat the procedure in Step 6.
9. Proceed to the driver’s side rear tire, and
repeat the procedure in Step 6.
10. After hearing the conrming horn chirp for the
driver’s side rear tire, the tire learning process
ends. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
11. Set all four tires to the recommended air
pressure level as indicated on the Tire
and Loading Information label.
12. Put the valve caps back on the valve stems.
