5.1. TPMS TOOL OVERVIEW 
Read and diagnose sensors. 
Service Procedure 
Read Sensor Test 
Before  servicing  the  tires/wheels,  using  your 
TPMS TOOL, trigger each of the vehicle's sensors to 
make sure they are working properly.  
This  will  eliminate  the  liability  associated  with 
replacing previously damaged or defective sensors.

CHECK SENSOR 
This procedure will not change the vehicle settings because the vehicle has yet to be put 
into  learn/retraining  mode.  This  procedure  allows  you  to  quickly  identify  damaged  or 
defective sensors,  because  some  vehicles  do  not  report  a  damaged  or  defective  sensor 
condition on the instrument cluster for up to 20 minutes. 
Note: If the sensors do not trigger, please refer to the Troubleshooting section of this Guide. 
Perform tire/wheel service.  
Begin by triggering the driver's front left (LF) wheel sensor. 
The same procedure should be followed on all wheel sensors, in a 
clockwise rotation.  
We  recommend  you  trigger  each  wheel sensor, one  final time,  to 
make sure they are working correctly prior to releasing the vehicle to 
the customer.
