Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Tire Pressure Light Reset

Follow the TPMS reset procedure for 2019-2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 models.

Before You Start

Ensure the parking brake is set.

Verify all tires are inflated to the cold pressure listed on the B-pillar (driver's door jamb) sticker.

If using the air-pressure change method instead of a TPMS relearn tool, make sure you are in a quiet area where the horn chirps can be heard clearly.

TPMS Reset Procedure

Turn the ignition to ON/RUN with the engine off.

Use the steering wheel thumbwheel to scroll to the Tire Pressure page in the Driver Information Center (DIC).

Press and hold the thumbwheel or Select button until the horn chirps twice and 'Tire Learning Active' appears on the display.

Start with the Driver Side Front tire. Increase or decrease the air pressure for about 10 seconds until a single horn chirp sounds.

Proceed in a clockwise order: Front Right, then Rear Right, and finally Rear Left. Wait for the horn chirp at each tire before moving to the next.

Check: After the Rear Left tire chirps, the horn should chirp twice more to signal that the tire pressure sensor matching process is complete.

Turn the ignition OFF and adjust all tires to the correct recommended PSI.

Warning: You have approximately 2 minutes to match the first tire and 5 minutes total to complete all four tires. If the horn does not chirp within the required time, the relearn process will stop and must be restarted.

Warning: If the TPMS warning light flashes for about 60 seconds and then remains illuminated, it can indicate a system malfunction or failed sensor battery rather than a tire pressure problem.

Warning: Do not use tire chains on 275/50R22, 275/60R20, or 285/50R22 tire sizes because they can damage the TPMS sensors and vehicle.

Notes

Note: If you only added air to a low tire and did not rotate the tires or replace sensors, the TPMS warning light will usually turn off automatically after driving above 20 mph (32 km/h) for a few minutes.

Note: A dedicated TPMS relearn tool such as the EL-46075 can perform the relearn faster than the air-pressure change method and avoids changing tire pressures unnecessarily.

Note: The owner's manual provides this procedure under the Tire Pressure Monitor Operation section.

Chevrolet Silverado 1500 TPMS Reset

This guide covers the TPMS sensor relearn procedure for the 2019-2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500.

The Silverado 1500 can enter a tire learning mode that allows the vehicle to match each wheel’s TPMS sensor to its position.

Before You Start

Set the parking brake and verify that all tires are inflated to the cold pressure listed on the vehicle’s B-pillar or driver’s door jamb sticker.

If you are using the air-pressure change method rather than a dedicated TPMS relearn tool, perform the procedure somewhere quiet enough to hear the horn chirps.

TPMS Sensor Relearn Procedure

Turn the ignition to ON/RUN with the engine off.
Use the steering wheel thumbwheel to find the Tire Pressure page in the Driver Information Center.
Press and hold the thumbwheel or Select button until the horn chirps twice and Tire Learning Active appears.
Start with the Driver Side Front tire. Increase or decrease its pressure for approximately 10 seconds until the horn chirps once.
Continue clockwise: Front Right -> Rear Right -> Rear Left, waiting for the horn chirp after each tire.
After the Rear Left tire is matched, listen for two additional horn chirps indicating that the relearn is complete.
Turn the ignition off and return all tires to the recommended cold tire pressure.
