    Learn Mode Description

    The tire pressure monitor (TPM) system uses the instrument panel cluster (IPC), body control module (BCM),
    remote control door lock receiver (RCDLR), keyless entry transmitter, 4 radio frequency transmitting pressure
    sensors, and the serial data circuit to perform the TPM learn mode functions. The sensor learn procedure must
    be performed after every tire rotation, RCDLR replacement, or sensor replacement. Once the learn mode has
    been enabled, each of the sensors unique identification codes can be learned into the RCDLR memory. When a
    sensor ID has been learned, the RCDLR sends a serial data message to the BCM to sound a horn chirp. This
    verifies the sensor has transmitted its ID and the RCDLR has received and learned it. The RCDLR must learn
    the sensor IDs in the proper sequence to determine correct sensor location. The first learned ID is assigned to
    the left front location, the second to right front, the third to right rear and the fourth to left rear. The turn signals
    will individually illuminate indicating which location is to be learned in the proper sequence.

    Sensor Functions Using EL-46079, EL-50448, or Equivalent

    Each sensor has an internal low frequency coil. When the TPM special tool is used in activate mode, it produces
    a low frequency transmission that activates the sensor. The sensor responds to a low frequency activation by
    transmitting in learn mode. When the RCDLR receives a learn mode transmission while in TPM learn mode, it
    will assign that sensors ID to the location on the vehicle relative to the order in which it was learned.

    Learn Mode Cancellation

    The learn mode will cancel if the ignition is cycled to OFF or if more than 2 minutes has elapsed for any sensor
    that has not been learned. If the learn mode is cancelled before the first sensor is learned, the original sensor IDs
    will be maintained. If the learn mode is canceled after the first sensor is learned, the following will occur:

    All stored sensor IDs will be invalidated in the RCDLR memory.


    If equipped, the DIC will display dashes instead of tire pressures.
    DTC C0775 will be set.

    These conditions will now require the learn procedure to be repeated for the system to function properly.

    upon activation but the horn does not chirp, it may be necessary to rotate the
    wheel valve stem to a different position due to the sensor signal is being
    blocked by another component.

    TPM Learn Enable Methods

    1. Ignition ON, initiate the TPM Learn Mode using one of the following procedures:
    Using a scan tool, initiate the TPM Learn Mode. A double horn chirp will sound indicating the
    Learn Mode has been enabled. The left front turn signal will also be illuminated.
    On vehicles equipped with keyless entry, simultaneously press the keyless entry transmitters lock
    and unlock buttons until a double horn chirp sounds indicating the Learn Mode has been enabled.
    The left front turn signal will also be illuminated.
    On vehicles not equipped with keyless entry, press and release the driver information center (DIC)
    INFO button until the TIRE LEARN message appears on the DIC display. Press and hold the
    SET/RESET button until a double horn chirp sounds indicating the Learn Mode has been enabled.
    The left front turn signal will also be illuminated.
    2. Starting with the left front tire, active the sensor by holding the antenna of the TPM special tool aimed
    upward against the tire sidewall close to the wheel rim at the valve stem location. Press and release the
    Activate button. Ensure that the transmit indicator on the special tool indicates that the sensor activation
    signal is being transmitted. Wait for a horn chirp. If the horn does not chirp, repeat the sensor activation
    sequence with the tool. Once the horn chirp has sounded, the sensor information is learned and the turn
    signal in the next location to be learned will illuminate.
    3. After the horn chirp has sounded and the right front turn signal is illuminated, repeat step 2 for the
    remaining 3 sensors in the following order:
    1. Right front
    2. Right rear
    3. Left rear
    4. When the left rear sensor has been learned and a double horn chirp has sounded, the learn process is
    complete and the RCDLR exits the learn mode.
