NOTE:
- This procedure locates where the tire pressure sensors 1, 2, 3, 4 are mounted, when activated by the TPMS sensor initializer tool.
- Position the vehicle at least 10 ft (3 m) away from other vehicles that have tire pressure sensors.
1. With the ignition switch at LOCK (0), connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC) (A) located under the driver's side of the dashboard.

6. Follow the prompts on the HDS to activate the tire pressure sensors using the TPMS sensor initializer tool.
NOTE: See the HDS Help menu for specific instructions.
7. Check the HDS screen, and note the active sensor reception order of tire pressure sensor 1, 2, 3, 4.
NOTE:
- If the sensor does not respond to the TPMS sensor initializer tool, make sure the tool was turned on properly. Refer to the HDS.
- If the tool start mode is OK, then rotate the tire 1/4 turn and retry.
- If the sensor still does not respond after one full rotation of the tire, then check for DTC 32, 34, 36, and 38 with the HDS.
