Phase-in started in October 2005, and all new US light vehicles up to 10,000 lb GVWR built from September 1, 2007 must have TPMS. The rule sets a low-pressure warning at 25% below the placard pressure, within 20 minutes of driving, and a separate malfunction signal: about a minute of flashing at start-up followed by a steady light. A missing sensor signal counts as a malfunction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGM sensor matching after a wheel swap\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen the original sensor wheels go back on, GM owner's manuals describe a sensor matching process. With the parking brake set and the ignition on (engine off), hold the key fob LOCK and UNLOCK buttons together for about five seconds, or use the Driver Information Center menu; the horn sounds twice and TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE appears. Then activate each sensor with a TPMS relearn tool held against the sidewall near the valve stem, in order: driver front, passenger front, passenger rear, driver rear. A chirp confirms each one. You have two minutes for the first wheel and five minutes for all four. Finish by setting all tires to the placard pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDirect and indirect TPMS\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndirect TPMS works out pressure from wheel speed through the ABS sensors. Direct TPMS, used on the GMC Savana 1500, has a sensor with its own battery inside each wheel and reports measured pressure by radio. The sensor battery is sealed in, so a sensor is replaced when its battery runs down. Remove the sensors and a direct system reports a malfunction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAfter-setup checks\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLight flashes then stays on:\u003c\/strong\u003e The system still sees a malfunction.

It was phased in from October 2005 and applies to every new light vehicle (10,000 lb GVWR or less) built from September 1, 2007. The system must warn within 20 minutes of driving when a tire is 25% or more below the placard cold pressure, and it must also show a malfunction: the TPMS light flashes for about 60 to 90 seconds at start-up and then stays on. Wheels without sensors trigger that malfunction warning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDirect and indirect TPMS\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe GMC Savana 2500 uses direct TPMS: sensors in the wheels, normally attached to the valve stems, each with a sealed battery and a unique ID. Indirect systems, used by some other makers, rely on ABS wheel-speed data instead. Direct systems are the ones that complain when sensors are missing, which is why an emulator is needed on sensorless wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGM sensor matching after a wheel swap\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGM's documented relearn is quick once you have a TPMS tool. Set the parking brake, switch the ignition on without starting the engine and put the receiver in learn mode (LOCK plus UNLOCK on the fob for roughly five seconds, or the tire-pressure item in the DIC menu) until the horn chirps twice. Trigger the sensors in the order driver front, passenger front, passenger rear, driver rear; each answers with a chirp, and the last with two. The process stops if the first wheel takes more than two minutes or all four take more than five.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGlossary\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelearn:\u003c\/strong\u003e The procedure that teaches the vehicle the IDs of its wheel sensors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlacard pressure:\u003c\/strong\u003e The recommended cold inflation pressure on the driver-side door-jamb label.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMalfunction indicator:\u003c\/strong\u003e The TPMS light flashing at start-up and then staying on, signalling a system fault.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFMVSS No. 138:\u003c\/strong\u003e The federal safety standard that requires TPMS on new US light vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirect TPMS:\u003c\/strong\u003e A system with a pressure sensor in each wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTPMS:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tire pressure monitoring system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions owners ask\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy does my TPMS light flash and then stay on?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnder FMVSS No. 138, a light that flashes for about a minute and then stays on indicates a system malfunction, such as missing sensor signals, rather than low pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I go back to the original sensors?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.

The required system warns when a tire falls 25% below the recommended cold pressure, and separately flags a malfunction with a flashing-then-steady light. On the GMC Sierra, a missing sensor signal is treated as a malfunction, which is the warning this emulator is meant to address.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChecking pressure the right way\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe number that matters is on the door-jamb placard. Measure when the tires are cold (parked for a few hours), because a warm tire reads higher. A pencil gauge is fine; a good digital gauge is easier to read. Write down the readings for a few weeks and a slow leak becomes obvious long before it becomes a flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhen the original wheels go back on\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen you go back to the original sensor-equipped wheels, remove or disconnect the emulator as the instructions describe and let the vehicle recognize its sensors again. If the original sensors were rotated or replaced, the vehicle may need its normal TPMS relearn. Store the sensor wheels indoors and keep the valve caps on to keep moisture out of the valve stems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResponsible use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA TPMS emulator removes your low-pressure warning, so manual checks have to take its place: cold pressure readings from the placard, a monthly check at minimum, and a look at tread and sidewalls. Inspection and road-use rules for TPMS vary by state, and federal law limits what shops may disable. Confirm the rules for your situation before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTroubleshooting\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf the TPMS light remains on after setup, confirm the part matches your exact year and model, then follow the setup steps in the instructions again. A warning that persists can also point to a receiver or body-module fault, damaged wiring, or a different TPMS configuration than the one listed. The emulator cannot repair those, so a scan of the vehicle for stored codes is the next step.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe usual situation is a second wheel set: dedicated winter wheels, track wheels or off-road wheels that were never fitted with sensors.

Typical use is a second set of wheels that has no sensors, where the factory system would otherwise keep its warning lit.

If a sensor goes quiet (dead battery, damaged sensor, or wheels without sensors), the system sets a fault. Federal standard FMVSS No. 138 requires this kind of warning on light vehicles built from September 1, 2007: a steady telltale when a tire is 25% or more below the placard pressure, and a malfunction indication that flashes for about a minute and then stays on when the system cannot work properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChecking pressure yourself\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA TPMS emulator removes your low-pressure warning, so manual checks have to take its place: cold pressure readings from the placard, a monthly check at minimum, and a look at tread and sidewalls. Inspection and road-use rules for TPMS vary by state, and federal law limits what shops may disable. Confirm the rules for your situation before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSeasonal wheel swaps\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost owners switch between two sets of wheels once or twice a year. Keep the instructions with the emulator so the swap is easy to repeat, and note which wheels were on which corner. If you have the original sensor wheels mounted again and the light stays on, run the vehicle's standard TPMS relearn procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is aimed at vehicles that spend time on wheels without sensors: off-road builds, track days, winter tires on steel wheels, or show vehicles. On each of those, a permanent TPMS light hides any other warning that might appear in the same spot, which is the main reason owners want it gone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChecking pressure the right way\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe number that matters is on the door-jamb placard. Measure when the tires are cold (parked for a few hours), because a warm tire reads higher. A pencil gauge is fine; a good digital gauge is easier to read. Write down the readings for a few weeks and a slow leak becomes obvious long before it becomes a flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIf the warning stays on\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA light that will not clear usually means a mismatch: a different year or receiver version than the listing, or a setup step that did not complete.

If a sensor goes quiet (dead battery, damaged sensor, or wheels without sensors), the system sets a fault. Federal standard FMVSS No. 138 requires this kind of warning on light vehicles built from September 1, 2007: a steady telltale when a tire is 25% or more below the placard pressure, and a malfunction indication that flashes for about a minute and then stays on when the system cannot work properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChecking pressure yourself\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTPMS is required safety equipment on new light vehicles in the US under FMVSS No. 138, and 49 U.S.C. 30122 prohibits manufacturers, dealers and repair businesses from knowingly making such equipment inoperative. Requirements for owners and for state inspections vary. Whatever the use, a tire gauge and regular visual checks replace the warning the system would have given you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIf the warning stays on\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA light that will not clear usually means a mismatch: a different year or receiver version than the listing, or a setup step that did not complete.

If the original sensors were rotated or replaced, the vehicle may need its normal TPMS relearn.

It was phased in from October 2005 and applies to every new light vehicle (10,000 lb GVWR or less) built from September 1, 2007. The system must warn within 20 minutes of driving when a tire is 25% or more below the placard cold pressure, and it must also show a malfunction: the TPMS light flashes for about 60 to 90 seconds at start-up and then stays on. Wheels without sensors trigger that malfunction warning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhen the sensor wheels go back on (GM)\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen the original sensor wheels go back on, GM owner's manuals describe a sensor matching process. With the parking brake set and the ignition on (engine off), hold the key fob LOCK and UNLOCK buttons together for about five seconds, or use the Driver Information Center menu; the horn sounds twice and TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE appears. Then activate each sensor with a TPMS relearn tool held against the sidewall near the valve stem, in order: driver front, passenger front, passenger rear, driver rear. A chirp confirms each one. You have two minutes for the first wheel and five minutes for all four.

If a sensor goes quiet (dead battery, damaged sensor, or wheels without sensors), the system sets a fault. Federal standard FMVSS No. 138 requires this kind of warning on light vehicles built from September 1, 2007: a steady telltale when a tire is 25% or more below the placard pressure, and a malfunction indication that flashes for about a minute and then stays on when the system cannot work properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe usual situation is a second wheel set: dedicated winter wheels, track wheels or off-road wheels that were never fitted with sensors. Buying and programming a second set of sensors costs money and time, and without them the TPMS light stays on all season. An emulator covers that set while the original wheels and sensors sit in storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDiagnosis first\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA light that will not clear usually means a mismatch: a different year or receiver version than the listing, or a setup step that did not complete. Re-check the fitment rows and instructions. If they match, scan for codes, because a receiver or module fault will keep the light on regardless of what is installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSeasonal wheel swaps\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen you go back to the original sensor-equipped wheels, remove or disconnect the emulator as the instructions describe and let the vehicle recognize its sensors again. If the original sensors were rotated or replaced, the vehicle may need its normal TPMS relearn. Store the sensor wheels indoors and keep the valve caps on to keep moisture out of the valve stems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResponsible use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA TPMS emulator removes your low-pressure warning, so manual checks have to take its place: cold pressure readings from the placard, a monthly check at minimum, and a look at tread and sidewalls. Inspection and road-use rules for TPMS vary by state, and federal law limits what shops may disable.

The required system warns when a tire falls 25% below the recommended cold pressure, and separately flags a malfunction with a flashing-then-steady light. On the GMC Yukon, a missing sensor signal is treated as a malfunction, which is the warning this emulator is meant to address.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhen owners use an emulator\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe usual situation is a second wheel set: dedicated winter wheels, track wheels or off-road wheels that were never fitted with sensors. Buying and programming a second set of sensors costs money and time, and without them the TPMS light stays on all season. An emulator covers that set while the original wheels and sensors sit in storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSwitching between wheel sets\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen you go back to the original sensor-equipped wheels, remove or disconnect the emulator as the instructions describe and let the vehicle recognize its sensors again. If the original sensors were rotated or replaced, the vehicle may need its normal TPMS relearn. Store the sensor wheels indoors and keep the valve caps on to keep moisture out of the valve stems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResponsible use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTPMS is required safety equipment on new light vehicles in the US under FMVSS No. 138, and 49 U.S.C. 30122 prohibits manufacturers, dealers and repair businesses from knowingly making such equipment inoperative. Requirements for owners and for state inspections vary. Whatever the use, a tire gauge and regular visual checks replace the warning the system would have given you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDiagnosis first\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA light that will not clear usually means a mismatch: a different year or receiver version than the listing, or a setup step that did not complete.

Indirect systems use the ABS wheel-speed sensors and look for a tire turning faster because it is underinflated. Direct systems, like the one on the GMC Yukon, put a battery-powered sensor in each wheel, usually on the valve stem, and transmit actual pressure. Because a direct system expects to hear each sensor, wheels without sensors cause a fault, which is the situation the emulator addresses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhen the sensor wheels go back on (GM)\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGM's documented relearn is quick once you have a TPMS tool. Set the parking brake, switch the ignition on without starting the engine and put the receiver in learn mode (LOCK plus UNLOCK on the fob for roughly five seconds, or the tire-pressure item in the DIC menu) until the horn chirps twice. Trigger the sensors in the order driver front, passenger front, passenger rear, driver rear; each answers with a chirp, and the last with two. The process stops if the first wheel takes more than two minutes or all four take more than five.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe federal TPMS rule\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter the TREAD Act of 2000, NHTSA issued FMVSS No. 138. It was phased in from October 2005 and applies to every new light vehicle (10,000 lb GVWR or less) built from September 1, 2007. The system must warn within 20 minutes of driving when a tire is 25% or more below the placard cold pressure, and it must also show a malfunction: the TPMS light flashes for about 60 to 90 seconds at start-up and then stays on. Wheels without sensors trigger that malfunction warning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTerms used on this page\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMalfunction indicator:\u003c\/strong\u003e The TPMS light flashing at start-up and then staying on, signalling a system fault.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelearn:\u003c\/strong\u003e The procedure that teaches the vehicle the IDs of its wheel sensors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirect TPMS:\u003c\/strong\u003e A system with a pressure sensor in each wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlacard pressure:\u003c\/strong\u003e The recommended cold inflation pressure on the driver-side door-jamb label.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTPMS:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tire pressure monitoring system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFMVSS No. 138:\u003c\/strong\u003e The federal safety standard that requires TPMS on new US light vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBefore you install\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorking TPMS on the original wheels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstructions for your exact vehicle at hand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTire gauge ready; pressures set cold to the placard.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal wheels stored safely, caps on.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetup completed step by step.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDash checked after a restart.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMonthly pressure check scheduled.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAfter-setup checks\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStill lit after setup:\u003c\/strong\u003e Check fitment and repeat the steps in order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIt was lit before:\u003c\/strong\u003e Repair the existing TPMS fault first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBack on original wheels and lit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use the vehicle's normal relearn procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot sure what is happening:\u003c\/strong\u003e Email support with your VIN.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill it fix a TPMS receiver or module fault?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Receiver, wiring and module faults need their own diagnosis and repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich GMC Yukon years does this TPMS emulator fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fitment table lists GMC Yukon 2008–2016.

The required system warns when a tire falls 25% below the recommended cold pressure, and separately flags a malfunction with a flashing-then-steady light. On the GMC Yukon XL 1500 and GMC Yukon XL, a missing sensor signal is treated as a malfunction, which is the warning this emulator is meant to address.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDiagnosis first\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf the TPMS light remains on after setup, confirm the part matches your exact year and model, then follow the setup steps in the instructions again. A warning that persists can also point to a receiver or body-module fault, damaged wiring, or a different TPMS configuration than the one listed. The emulator cannot repair those, so a scan of the vehicle for stored codes is the next step.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere it fits in\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is aimed at vehicles that spend time on wheels without sensors: off-road builds, track days, winter tires on steel wheels, or show vehicles. On each of those, a permanent TPMS light hides any other warning that might appear in the same spot, which is the main reason owners want it gone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSwitching between wheel sets\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost owners switch between two sets of wheels once or twice a year. Keep the instructions with the emulator so the swap is easy to repeat, and note which wheels were on which corner. If you have the original sensor wheels mounted again and the light stays on, run the vehicle's standard TPMS relearn procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eUsing the placard pressure\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe number that matters is on the door-jamb placard.

Then activate each sensor with a TPMS relearn tool held against the sidewall near the valve stem, in order: driver front, passenger front, passenger rear, driver rear. A chirp confirms each one.

It was phased in from October 2005 and applies to every new light vehicle (10,000 lb GVWR or less) built from September 1, 2007. The system must warn within 20 minutes of driving when a tire is 25% or more below the placard cold pressure, and it must also show a malfunction: the TPMS light flashes for about 60 to 90 seconds at start-up and then stays on.

The required system warns when a tire falls 25% below the recommended cold pressure, and separately flags a malfunction with a flashing-then-steady light.

Phase-in started in October 2005, and all new US light vehicles up to 10,000 lb GVWR built from September 1, 2007 must have TPMS. The rule sets a low-pressure warning at 25% below the placard pressure, within 20 minutes of driving, and a separate malfunction signal: about a minute of flashing at start-up followed by a steady light. A missing sensor signal counts as a malfunction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBefore you install\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorking TPMS on the original wheels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstructions for your exact vehicle at hand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTire gauge ready; pressures set cold to the placard.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal wheels stored safely, caps on.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetup completed step by step.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDash checked after a restart.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMonthly pressure check scheduled.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDirect and indirect TPMS\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are two ways to monitor tire pressure. Indirect systems use the ABS wheel-speed sensors and look for a tire turning faster because it is underinflated. Direct systems, like the one on the GMC Yukon XL 2500, put a battery-powered sensor in each wheel, usually on the valve stem, and transmit actual pressure. Because a direct system expects to hear each sensor, wheels without sensors cause a fault, which is the situation the emulator addresses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy does my TPMS light flash and then stay on?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnder FMVSS No. 138, a light that flashes for about a minute and then stays on indicates a system malfunction, such as missing sensor signals, rather than low pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich GMC Yukon XL 2500 years does this TPMS emulator fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fitment table lists GMC Yukon XL 2500 2008–2013.

If a sensor goes quiet (dead battery, damaged sensor, or wheels without sensors), the system sets a fault. Federal standard FMVSS No. 138 requires this kind of warning on light vehicles built from September 1, 2007: a steady telltale when a tire is 25% or more below the placard pressure, and a malfunction indication that flashes for about a minute and then stays on when the system cannot work properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResponsible use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA TPMS emulator removes your low-pressure warning, so manual checks have to take its place: cold pressure readings from the placard, a monthly check at minimum, and a look at tread and sidewalls. Inspection and road-use rules for TPMS vary by state, and federal law limits what shops may disable.

The rule sets a low-pressure warning at 25% below the placard pressure, within 20 minutes of driving, and a separate malfunction signal: about a minute of flashing at start-up followed by a steady light.

Mount wheels without sensors and those IDs stop transmitting, so the system reports a fault. Under FMVSS No. 138, that fault shows as a TPMS light that flashes for roughly a minute at start-up and then stays lit, repeating on every start until the system sees its sensors again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSeasonal wheel swaps\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost owners switch between two sets of wheels once or twice a year. Keep the instructions with the emulator so the swap is easy to repeat, and note which wheels were on which corner. If you have the original sensor wheels mounted again and the light stays on, run the vehicle's standard TPMS relearn procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChecking pressure the right way\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWithout TPMS warnings, a monthly routine does the job: tires cold, gauge on each valve, compare with the door-jamb placard, top up as needed, and look over the tread and sidewalls. Larger off-road or winter tires may call for different pressures than the factory placard; follow the tire maker's guidance in that case.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIf the warning stays on\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA light that will not clear usually means a mismatch: a different year or receiver version than the listing, or a setup step that did not complete. Re-check the fitment rows and instructions.

Mount wheels without sensors and those IDs stop transmitting, so the system reports a fault. Under FMVSS No. 138, that fault shows as a TPMS light that flashes for roughly a minute at start-up and then stays lit, repeating on every start until the system sees its sensors again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResponsible use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the emulator in place, the dashboard will not tell you about a leak. Check all four tires (and the spare) with a gauge at least once a month and before long trips, using the cold pressures on the door-jamb placard, and look for nails, cuts and bulges while you are there. Federal law also bars dealers and repair businesses from knowingly disabling required safety equipment, and state inspection rules differ, so check what applies to your vehicle and use before running it on the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDiagnosis first\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA light that will not clear usually means a mismatch: a different year or receiver version than the listing, or a setup step that did not complete. Re-check the fitment rows and instructions. If they match, scan for codes, because a receiver or module fault will keep the light on regardless of what is installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSwitching between wheel sets\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost owners switch between two sets of wheels once or twice a year. Keep the instructions with the emulator so the swap is easy to repeat, and note which wheels were on which corner. If you have the original sensor wheels mounted again and the light stays on, run the vehicle's standard TPMS relearn procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere it fits in\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost buyers have wheels without sensors that they use part of the year, such as a winter set, a track set or a show set. The emulator keeps the dash clear while those wheels are on.

The system must warn within 20 minutes of driving when a tire is 25% or more below the placard cold pressure, and it must also show a malfunction: the TPMS light flashes for about 60 to 90 seconds at start-up and then stays on.

Mount wheels without sensors and those IDs stop transmitting, so the system reports a fault.

Phase-in started in October 2005, and all new US light vehicles up to 10,000 lb GVWR built from September 1, 2007 must have TPMS. The rule sets a low-pressure warning at 25% below the placard pressure, within 20 minutes of driving, and a separate malfunction signal: about a minute of flashing at start-up followed by a steady light. A missing sensor signal counts as a malfunction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow these vehicles monitor pressure\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are two ways to monitor tire pressure. Indirect systems use the ABS wheel-speed sensors and look for a tire turning faster because it is underinflated. Direct systems, like the one on the Chevrolet Cruze and Chevrolet Cruze Limited, put a battery-powered sensor in each wheel, usually on the valve stem, and transmit actual pressure. Because a direct system expects to hear each sensor, wheels without sensors cause a fault, which is the situation the emulator addresses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich Chevrolet Cruze and Chevrolet Cruze Limited years does this TPMS emulator fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fitment table lists Chevrolet Cruze 2011–2016; Chevrolet Cruze Limited 2016.

Mount wheels without sensors and those IDs stop transmitting, so the system reports a fault. Under FMVSS No. 138, that fault shows as a TPMS light that flashes for roughly a minute at start-up and then stays lit, repeating on every start until the system sees its sensors again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhen owners use an emulator\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost buyers have wheels without sensors that they use part of the year, such as a winter set, a track set or a show set. The emulator keeps the dash clear while those wheels are on.

Inspection and road-use rules for TPMS vary by state, and federal law limits what shops may disable.

Measure when the tires are cold (parked for a few hours), because a warm tire reads higher. A pencil gauge is fine; a good digital gauge is easier to read. Write down the readings for a few weeks and a slow leak becomes obvious long before it becomes a flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSwitching between wheel sets\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost owners switch between two sets of wheels once or twice a year. Keep the instructions with the emulator so the swap is easy to repeat, and note which wheels were on which corner.

Indirect systems use the ABS wheel-speed sensors and look for a tire turning faster because it is underinflated. Direct systems, like the one on the Chevrolet Express 1500 and Chevrolet Express 2500, put a battery-powered sensor in each wheel, usually on the valve stem, and transmit actual pressure. Because a direct system expects to hear each sensor, wheels without sensors cause a fault, which is the situation the emulator addresses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBackground: the TPMS standard\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter the TREAD Act of 2000, NHTSA issued FMVSS No. 138. It was phased in from October 2005 and applies to every new light vehicle (10,000 lb GVWR or less) built from September 1, 2007. The system must warn within 20 minutes of driving when a tire is 25% or more below the placard cold pressure, and it must also show a malfunction: the TPMS light flashes for about 60 to 90 seconds at start-up and then stays on. Wheels without sensors trigger that malfunction warning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich Chevrolet Express 1500 and Chevrolet Express 2500 years does this TPMS emulator fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fitment table lists Chevrolet Express 1500 2008–2011; Chevrolet Express 2500 2008–2011.

Mount wheels without sensors and those IDs stop transmitting, so the system reports a fault. Under FMVSS No. 138, that fault shows as a TPMS light that flashes for roughly a minute at start-up and then stays lit, repeating on every start until the system sees its sensors again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChecking pressure yourself\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA TPMS emulator removes your low-pressure warning, so manual checks have to take its place: cold pressure readings from the placard, a monthly check at minimum, and a look at tread and sidewalls. Inspection and road-use rules for TPMS vary by state, and federal law limits what shops may disable. Confirm the rules for your situation before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSeasonal wheel swaps\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen you go back to the original sensor-equipped wheels, remove or disconnect the emulator as the instructions describe and let the vehicle recognize its sensors again. If the original sensors were rotated or replaced, the vehicle may need its normal TPMS relearn. Store the sensor wheels indoors and keep the valve caps on to keep moisture out of the valve stems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChecking pressure the right way\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse the cold inflation pressure printed on the tire placard on the driver-side door jamb, not the maximum figure molded into the tire sidewall. \"Cold\" means the vehicle has been parked for about three hours or driven only a short distance. Check every tire including the spare, add air in small steps, and recheck. Doing this monthly covers most of what the TPMS warning would have told you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTroubleshooting\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore installation, make sure the TPMS system works on the original wheels.

Indirect systems, used by some other makers, rely on ABS wheel-speed data instead. Direct systems are the ones that complain when sensors are missing, which is why an emulator is needed on sensorless wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat FMVSS No. 138 requires\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter the TREAD Act of 2000, NHTSA issued FMVSS No. 138. It was phased in from October 2005 and applies to every new light vehicle (10,000 lb GVWR or less) built from September 1, 2007. The system must warn within 20 minutes of driving when a tire is 25% or more below the placard cold pressure, and it must also show a malfunction: the TPMS light flashes for about 60 to 90 seconds at start-up and then stays on. Wheels without sensors trigger that malfunction warning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTroubleshooting\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStill lit after setup:\u003c\/strong\u003e Check fitment and repeat the steps in order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIt was lit before:\u003c\/strong\u003e Repair the existing TPMS fault first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBack on original wheels and lit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use the vehicle's normal relearn procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot sure what is happening:\u003c\/strong\u003e Email support with your VIN.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRe-learning the original sensors (GM)\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGM's documented relearn is quick once you have a TPMS tool. Set the parking brake, switch the ignition on without starting the engine and put the receiver in learn mode (LOCK plus UNLOCK on the fob for roughly five seconds, or the tire-pressure item in the DIC menu) until the horn chirps twice. Trigger the sensors in the order driver front, passenger front, passenger rear, driver rear; each answers with a chirp, and the last with two.

When the wheels on the vehicle have no sensors, the dash shows a TPMS fault. This emulator for the 2008–2010, 2013–2016 Chevrolet Malibu and 2016 Chevrolet Malibu Limited provides those signals so the warning stays off.

If a sensor goes quiet (dead battery, damaged sensor, or wheels without sensors), the system sets a fault. Federal standard FMVSS No. 138 requires this kind of warning on light vehicles built from September 1, 2007: a steady telltale when a tire is 25% or more below the placard pressure, and a malfunction indication that flashes for about a minute and then stays on when the system cannot work properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eUsing the placard pressure\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse the cold inflation pressure printed on the tire placard on the driver-side door jamb, not the maximum figure molded into the tire sidewall. \"Cold\" means the vehicle has been parked for about three hours or driven only a short distance. Check every tire including the spare, add air in small steps, and recheck. Doing this monthly covers most of what the TPMS warning would have told you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe usual situation is a second wheel set: dedicated winter wheels, track wheels or off-road wheels that were never fitted with sensors. Buying and programming a second set of sensors costs money and time, and without them the TPMS light stays on all season. An emulator covers that set while the original wheels and sensors sit in storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChecking pressure yourself\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA TPMS emulator removes your low-pressure warning, so manual checks have to take its place: cold pressure readings from the placard, a monthly check at minimum, and a look at tread and sidewalls. Inspection and road-use rules for TPMS vary by state, and federal law limits what shops may disable. Confirm the rules for your situation before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTroubleshooting\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA light that will not clear usually means a mismatch: a different year or receiver version than the listing, or a setup step that did not complete. Re-check the fitment rows and instructions. If they match, scan for codes, because a receiver or module fault will keep the light on regardless of what is installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSeasonal wheel swaps\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost owners switch between two sets of wheels once or twice a year.

It requires a warning when any tire is at least 25% under the recommended cold pressure, delivered within 20 minutes of driving, and a malfunction indication (flashing for roughly 60–90 seconds, then steady) when the system cannot do its job, including when sensors are absent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhen the sensor wheels go back on (GM)\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGM's documented relearn is quick once you have a TPMS tool. Set the parking brake, switch the ignition on without starting the engine and put the receiver in learn mode (LOCK plus UNLOCK on the fob for roughly five seconds, or the tire-pressure item in the DIC menu) until the horn chirps twice. Trigger the sensors in the order driver front, passenger front, passenger rear, driver rear; each answers with a chirp, and the last with two. The process stops if the first wheel takes more than two minutes or all four take more than five.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes it measure tire pressure?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. It supplies the signals the system expects.

It requires a warning when any tire is at least 25% under the recommended cold pressure, delivered within 20 minutes of driving, and a malfunction indication (flashing for roughly 60–90 seconds, then steady) when the system cannot do its job, including when sensors are absent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGM sensor matching after a wheel swap\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGM's documented relearn is quick once you have a TPMS tool. Set the parking brake, switch the ignition on without starting the engine and put the receiver in learn mode (LOCK plus UNLOCK on the fob for roughly five seconds, or the tire-pressure item in the DIC menu) until the horn chirps twice. Trigger the sensors in the order driver front, passenger front, passenger rear, driver rear; each answers with a chirp, and the last with two.

The required system warns when a tire falls 25% below the recommended cold pressure, and separately flags a malfunction with a flashing-then-steady light. On the Chevrolet, a missing sensor signal is treated as a malfunction, which is the warning this emulator is meant to address.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTroubleshooting\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA light that will not clear usually means a mismatch: a different year or receiver version than the listing, or a setup step that did not complete. Re-check the fitment rows and instructions. If they match, scan for codes, because a receiver or module fault will keep the light on regardless of what is installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhen owners use an emulator\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe usual situation is a second wheel set: dedicated winter wheels, track wheels or off-road wheels that were never fitted with sensors. Buying and programming a second set of sensors costs money and time, and without them the TPMS light stays on all season. An emulator covers that set while the original wheels and sensors sit in storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSafety and legal notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the emulator in place, the dashboard will not tell you about a leak. Check all four tires (and the spare) with a gauge at least once a month and before long trips, using the cold pressures on the door-jamb placard, and look for nails, cuts and bulges while you are there. Federal law also bars dealers and repair businesses from knowingly disabling required safety equipment, and state inspection rules differ, so check what applies to your vehicle and use before running it on the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSeasonal wheel swaps\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost owners switch between two sets of wheels once or twice a year. Keep the instructions with the emulator so the swap is easy to repeat, and note which wheels were on which corner. If you have the original sensor wheels mounted again and the light stays on, run the vehicle's standard TPMS relearn procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChecking pressure the right way\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWithout TPMS warnings, a monthly routine does the job: tires cold, gauge on each valve, compare with the door-jamb placard, top up as needed, and look over the tread and sidewalls.

Mount wheels without sensors and those IDs stop transmitting, so the system reports a fault. Under FMVSS No. 138, that fault shows as a TPMS light that flashes for roughly a minute at start-up and then stays lit, repeating on every start until the system sees its sensors again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSafety and legal notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTPMS is required safety equipment on new light vehicles in the US under FMVSS No. 138, and 49 U.S.C. 30122 prohibits manufacturers, dealers and repair businesses from knowingly making such equipment inoperative. Requirements for owners and for state inspections vary. Whatever the use, a tire gauge and regular visual checks replace the warning the system would have given you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eUsing the placard pressure\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWithout TPMS warnings, a monthly routine does the job: tires cold, gauge on each valve, compare with the door-jamb placard, top up as needed, and look over the tread and sidewalls.

If the original sensors were rotated or replaced, the vehicle may need its normal TPMS relearn. Store the sensor wheels indoors and keep the valve caps on to keep moisture out of the valve stems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIf the warning stays on\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore installation, make sure the TPMS system works on the original wheels. If it already shows a fault with good sensors fitted, the problem is in the vehicle (receiver, module or wiring), and that needs repair first.

On the Chevrolet Sonic, a missing sensor signal is treated as a malfunction, which is the warning this emulator is meant to address.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDiagnosis first\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA light that will not clear usually means a mismatch: a different year or receiver version than the listing, or a setup step that did not complete. Re-check the fitment rows and instructions. If they match, scan for codes, because a receiver or module fault will keep the light on regardless of what is installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChecking pressure yourself\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTPMS is required safety equipment on new light vehicles in the US under FMVSS No. 138, and 49 U.S.C. 30122 prohibits manufacturers, dealers and repair businesses from knowingly making such equipment inoperative. Requirements for owners and for state inspections vary. Whatever the use, a tire gauge and regular visual checks replace the warning the system would have given you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is aimed at vehicles that spend time on wheels without sensors: off-road builds, track days, winter tires on steel wheels, or show vehicles. On each of those, a permanent TPMS light hides any other warning that might appear in the same spot, which is the main reason owners want it gone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eUsing the placard pressure\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWithout TPMS warnings, a monthly routine does the job: tires cold, gauge on each valve, compare with the door-jamb placard, top up as needed, and look over the tread and sidewalls. Larger off-road or winter tires may call for different pressures than the factory placard; follow the tire maker's guidance in that case.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSwitching between wheel sets\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost owners switch between two sets of wheels once or twice a year.

If a sensor goes quiet (dead battery, damaged sensor, or wheels without sensors), the system sets a fault. Federal standard FMVSS No. 138 requires this kind of warning on light vehicles built from September 1, 2007: a steady telltale when a tire is 25% or more below the placard pressure, and a malfunction indication that flashes for about a minute and then stays on when the system cannot work properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDiagnosis first\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore installation, make sure the TPMS system works on the original wheels. If it already shows a fault with good sensors fitted, the problem is in the vehicle (receiver, module or wiring), and that needs repair first. Starting from a working system makes the emulator setup straightforward to check.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSafety and legal notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA TPMS emulator removes your low-pressure warning, so manual checks have to take its place: cold pressure readings from the placard, a monthly check at minimum, and a look at tread and sidewalls. Inspection and road-use rules for TPMS vary by state, and federal law limits what shops may disable. Confirm the rules for your situation before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhen owners use an emulator\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe usual situation is a second wheel set: dedicated winter wheels, track wheels or off-road wheels that were never fitted with sensors. Buying and programming a second set of sensors costs money and time, and without them the TPMS light stays on all season. An emulator covers that set while the original wheels and sensors sit in storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSeasonal wheel swaps\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost owners switch between two sets of wheels once or twice a year.

It requires a warning when any tire is at least 25% under the recommended cold pressure, delivered within 20 minutes of driving, and a malfunction indication (flashing for roughly 60–90 seconds, then steady) when the system cannot do its job, including when sensors are absent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGM sensor matching after a wheel swap\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen the original sensor wheels go back on, GM owner's manuals describe a sensor matching process. With the parking brake set and the ignition on (engine off), hold the key fob LOCK and UNLOCK buttons together for about five seconds, or use the Driver Information Center menu; the horn sounds twice and TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE appears. Then activate each sensor with a TPMS relearn tool held against the sidewall near the valve stem, in order: driver front, passenger front, passenger rear, driver rear. A chirp confirms each one. You have two minutes for the first wheel and five minutes for all four. Finish by setting all tires to the placard pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSetup prep checklist\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStart from a fault-free TPMS on the sensor wheels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRead your model's instructions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet pressures cold to the placard figure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore the sensor wheels indoors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete the setup as described.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestart and look at the TPMS light.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlan regular gauge checks from now on.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTwo kinds of TPMS\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndirect TPMS works out pressure from wheel speed through the ABS sensors. Direct TPMS, used on the Chevrolet Spark, has a sensor with its own battery inside each wheel and reports measured pressure by radio. The sensor battery is sealed in, so a sensor is replaced when its battery runs down. Remove the sensors and a direct system reports a malfunction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes it measure tire pressure?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. It supplies the signals the system expects.

Typical use is a second set of wheels that has no sensors, where the factory system would otherwise keep its warning lit. Because it supplies an expected signal instead of real readings, it cannot warn you about a slow leak.

The required system warns when a tire falls 25% below the recommended cold pressure, and separately flags a malfunction with a flashing-then-steady light. On the Chevrolet Suburban 1500, a missing sensor signal is treated as a malfunction, which is the warning this emulator is meant to address.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSwitching between wheel sets\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost owners switch between two sets of wheels once or twice a year. Keep the instructions with the emulator so the swap is easy to repeat, and note which wheels were on which corner. If you have the original sensor wheels mounted again and the light stays on, run the vehicle's standard TPMS relearn procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eUsing the placard pressure\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse the cold inflation pressure printed on the tire placard on the driver-side door jamb, not the maximum figure molded into the tire sidewall. \"Cold\" means the vehicle has been parked for about three hours or driven only a short distance. Check every tire including the spare, add air in small steps, and recheck. Doing this monthly covers most of what the TPMS warning would have told you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChecking pressure yourself\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the emulator in place, the dashboard will not tell you about a leak. Check all four tires (and the spare) with a gauge at least once a month and before long trips, using the cold pressures on the door-jamb placard, and look for nails, cuts and bulges while you are there. Federal law also bars dealers and repair businesses from knowingly disabling required safety equipment, and state inspection rules differ, so check what applies to your vehicle and use before running it on the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere it fits in\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe usual situation is a second wheel set: dedicated winter wheels, track wheels or off-road wheels that were never fitted with sensors. Buying and programming a second set of sensors costs money and time, and without them the TPMS light stays on all season. An emulator covers that set while the original wheels and sensors sit in storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDiagnosis first\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA light that will not clear usually means a mismatch: a different year or receiver version than the listing, or a setup step that did not complete.

Indirect systems use the ABS wheel-speed sensors and look for a tire turning faster because it is underinflated. Direct systems, like the one on the Chevrolet Suburban 1500, put a battery-powered sensor in each wheel, usually on the valve stem, and transmit actual pressure. Because a direct system expects to hear each sensor, wheels without sensors cause a fault, which is the situation the emulator addresses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIf the light stays on\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStill lit after setup:\u003c\/strong\u003e Check fitment and repeat the steps in order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIt was lit before:\u003c\/strong\u003e Repair the existing TPMS fault first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBack on original wheels and lit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use the vehicle's normal relearn procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot sure what is happening:\u003c\/strong\u003e Email support with your VIN.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat FMVSS No. 138 requires\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe TPMS requirement is federal standard FMVSS No. 138, adopted under the TREAD Act of 2000 and fully in force for light vehicles built from September 1, 2007. It requires a warning when any tire is at least 25% under the recommended cold pressure, delivered within 20 minutes of driving, and a malfunction indication (flashing for roughly 60–90 seconds, then steady) when the system cannot do its job, including when sensors are absent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs it legal to use on the road?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTPMS is required equipment on new US light vehicles, and rules for owners and inspections vary by state.

The required system warns when a tire falls 25% below the recommended cold pressure, and separately flags a malfunction with a flashing-then-steady light. On the Chevrolet Suburban 2500 and Chevrolet Suburban 3500 HD, a missing sensor signal is treated as a malfunction, which is the warning this emulator is meant to address.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTroubleshooting\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore installation, make sure the TPMS system works on the original wheels. If it already shows a fault with good sensors fitted, the problem is in the vehicle (receiver, module or wiring), and that needs repair first. Starting from a working system makes the emulator setup straightforward to check.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChecking pressure yourself\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTPMS is required safety equipment on new light vehicles in the US under FMVSS No. 138, and 49 U.S.C. 30122 prohibits manufacturers, dealers and repair businesses from knowingly making such equipment inoperative. Requirements for owners and for state inspections vary.

If the original sensors were rotated or replaced, the vehicle may need its normal TPMS relearn. Store the sensor wheels indoors and keep the valve caps on to keep moisture out of the valve stems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost buyers have wheels without sensors that they use part of the year, such as a winter set, a track set or a show set. The emulator keeps the dash clear while those wheels are on.

Indirect systems use the ABS wheel-speed sensors and look for a tire turning faster because it is underinflated. Direct systems, like the one on the Chevrolet Suburban 2500 and Chevrolet Suburban 3500 HD, put a battery-powered sensor in each wheel, usually on the valve stem, and transmit actual pressure. Because a direct system expects to hear each sensor, wheels without sensors cause a fault, which is the situation the emulator addresses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAfter-setup checks\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStill lit after setup:\u003c\/strong\u003e Check fitment and repeat the steps in order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIt was lit before:\u003c\/strong\u003e Repair the existing TPMS fault first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBack on original wheels and lit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use the vehicle's normal relearn procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot sure what is happening:\u003c\/strong\u003e Email support with your VIN.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBackground: the TPMS standard\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter the TREAD Act of 2000, NHTSA issued FMVSS No. 138. It was phased in from October 2005 and applies to every new light vehicle (10,000 lb GVWR or less) built from September 1, 2007. The system must warn within 20 minutes of driving when a tire is 25% or more below the placard cold pressure, and it must also show a malfunction: the TPMS light flashes for about 60 to 90 seconds at start-up and then stays on. Wheels without sensors trigger that malfunction warning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTerms used on this page\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTPMS:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tire pressure monitoring system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFMVSS No. 138:\u003c\/strong\u003e The federal safety standard that requires TPMS on new US light vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelearn:\u003c\/strong\u003e The procedure that teaches the vehicle the IDs of its wheel sensors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirect TPMS:\u003c\/strong\u003e A system with a pressure sensor in each wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMalfunction indicator:\u003c\/strong\u003e The TPMS light flashing at start-up and then staying on, signalling a system fault.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlacard pressure:\u003c\/strong\u003e The recommended cold inflation pressure on the driver-side door-jamb label.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRe-learning the original sensors (GM)\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGM's documented relearn is quick once you have a TPMS tool.

Trigger the sensors in the order driver front, passenger front, passenger rear, driver rear; each answers with a chirp, and the last with two.

The required system warns when a tire falls 25% below the recommended cold pressure, and separately flags a malfunction with a flashing-then-steady light. On the Chevrolet Tahoe and Chevrolet Uplander, a missing sensor signal is treated as a malfunction, which is the warning this emulator is meant to address.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSeasonal wheel swaps\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost owners switch between two sets of wheels once or twice a year. Keep the instructions with the emulator so the swap is easy to repeat, and note which wheels were on which corner. If you have the original sensor wheels mounted again and the light stays on, run the vehicle's standard TPMS relearn procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChecking pressure yourself\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA TPMS emulator removes your low-pressure warning, so manual checks have to take its place: cold pressure readings from the placard, a monthly check at minimum, and a look at tread and sidewalls. Inspection and road-use rules for TPMS vary by state, and federal law limits what shops may disable. Confirm the rules for your situation before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eManual pressure checks\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe number that matters is on the door-jamb placard. Measure when the tires are cold (parked for a few hours), because a warm tire reads higher. A pencil gauge is fine; a good digital gauge is easier to read. Write down the readings for a few weeks and a slow leak becomes obvious long before it becomes a flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost buyers have wheels without sensors that they use part of the year, such as a winter set, a track set or a show set. The emulator keeps the dash clear while those wheels are on. When the original sensor-equipped wheels go back on, the factory system can be returned to normal operation following the instructions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIf the warning stays on\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore installation, make sure the TPMS system works on the original wheels.

It stands in for the factory wheel sensors so the tire-pressure monitoring system sees the signals it expects and the TPMS warning stays off when the wheels on the vehicle do not have working sensors.

Mount wheels without sensors and those IDs stop transmitting, so the system reports a fault. Under FMVSS No. 138, that fault shows as a TPMS light that flashes for roughly a minute at start-up and then stays lit, repeating on every start until the system sees its sensors again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eUsing the placard pressure\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse the cold inflation pressure printed on the tire placard on the driver-side door jamb, not the maximum figure molded into the tire sidewall. \"Cold\" means the vehicle has been parked for about three hours or driven only a short distance. Check every tire including the spare, add air in small steps, and recheck. Doing this monthly covers most of what the TPMS warning would have told you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResponsible use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the emulator in place, the dashboard will not tell you about a leak. Check all four tires (and the spare) with a gauge at least once a month and before long trips, using the cold pressures on the door-jamb placard, and look for nails, cuts and bulges while you are there. Federal law also bars dealers and repair businesses from knowingly disabling required safety equipment, and state inspection rules differ, so check what applies to your vehicle and use before running it on the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere it fits in\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe usual situation is a second wheel set: dedicated winter wheels, track wheels or off-road wheels that were never fitted with sensors. Buying and programming a second set of sensors costs money and time, and without them the TPMS light stays on all season. An emulator covers that set while the original wheels and sensors sit in storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSwitching between wheel sets\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost owners switch between two sets of wheels once or twice a year. Keep the instructions with the emulator so the swap is easy to repeat, and note which wheels were on which corner. If you have the original sensor wheels mounted again and the light stays on, run the vehicle's standard TPMS relearn procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTroubleshooting\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore installation, make sure the TPMS system works on the original wheels.

Indirect systems use the ABS wheel-speed sensors and look for a tire turning faster because it is underinflated. Direct systems, like the one on the Chevrolet Corvette, put a battery-powered sensor in each wheel, usually on the valve stem, and transmit actual pressure. Because a direct system expects to hear each sensor, wheels without sensors cause a fault, which is the situation the emulator addresses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhen the sensor wheels go back on (GM)\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGM's documented relearn is quick once you have a TPMS tool.

Trigger the sensors in the order driver front, passenger front, passenger rear, driver rear; each answers with a chirp, and the last with two.

Mount wheels without sensors and those IDs stop transmitting, so the system reports a fault. Under FMVSS No. 138, that fault shows as a TPMS light that flashes for roughly a minute at start-up and then stays lit, repeating on every start until the system sees its sensors again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhen the original wheels go back on\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost owners switch between two sets of wheels once or twice a year.

Measure when the tires are cold (parked for a few hours), because a warm tire reads higher. A pencil gauge is fine; a good digital gauge is easier to read.

Phase-in started in October 2005, and all new US light vehicles up to 10,000 lb GVWR built from September 1, 2007 must have TPMS. The rule sets a low-pressure warning at 25% below the placard pressure, within 20 minutes of driving, and a separate malfunction signal: about a minute of flashing at start-up followed by a steady light.

Mount wheels without sensors and those IDs stop transmitting, so the system reports a fault. Under FMVSS No. 138, that fault shows as a TPMS light that flashes for roughly a minute at start-up and then stays lit, repeating on every start until the system sees its sensors again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eUsing the placard pressure\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWithout TPMS warnings, a monthly routine does the job: tires cold, gauge on each valve, compare with the door-jamb placard, top up as needed, and look over the tread and sidewalls.

Phase-in started in October 2005, and all new US light vehicles up to 10,000 lb GVWR built from September 1, 2007 must have TPMS. The rule sets a low-pressure warning at 25% below the placard pressure, within 20 minutes of driving, and a separate malfunction signal: about a minute of flashing at start-up followed by a steady light. A missing sensor signal counts as a malfunction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTerms used on this page\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirect TPMS:\u003c\/strong\u003e A system with a pressure sensor in each wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelearn:\u003c\/strong\u003e The procedure that teaches the vehicle the IDs of its wheel sensors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFMVSS No. 138:\u003c\/strong\u003e The federal safety standard that requires TPMS on new US light vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTPMS:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tire pressure monitoring system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlacard pressure:\u003c\/strong\u003e The recommended cold inflation pressure on the driver-side door-jamb label.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMalfunction indicator:\u003c\/strong\u003e The TPMS light flashing at start-up and then staying on, signalling a system fault.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow these vehicles monitor pressure\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Ford Focus uses direct TPMS: sensors in the wheels, normally attached to the valve stems, each with a sealed battery and a unique ID.
