SERVICE TIRE MONITOR
If your vehicle has the tire pressure monitor system,
this message will be displayed if one or more of the
tire monitor sensors have malfunctioned or if all of the
tire monitor sensors have not been programmed
successfully. See your GM dealer. Pressing any of the
four DIC buttons will acknowledge the message and
clear it from the DIC display. If your vehicle does
not have the four DIC buttons, pressing the trip
odometer reset stem will acknowledge the message
and clear it from the DIC display. The message
will reappear at each ignition cycle until the system
has been serviced. See your GM dealer.
STABILITY SYS (System) ACTIVE
You may see the STABILITY SYS ACTIVE message on
the DIC. It means that an advanced computer-controlled
system has come on to help your vehicle continue
to go in the direction in which you are steering.
StabiliTrak
®activates when the computer senses
that your vehicle is just starting to spin, as it might if you
hit a patch of ice or other slippery spot on the road.
When the system activates, you may hear a noise or
feel a vibration in the brake pedal. This is normal.When the STABILITY SYS ACTIVE message is on, you
should continue to steer in the direction you want to
go. The system is designed to help you in bad weather
or other difficult driving situations by making the most
of whatever road conditions will permit.
STABILITY SYS (System) DISABLED
The STABILITY SYS DISABLED message will turn on
when you press the StabiliTrak®button, or when
the stability control has been automatically disabled.
To limit wheel spin and realize the full benets of
the stability enhancement system, you should normally
leave StabiliTrak
®on. However, you should turn
StabiliTrak®off if your vehicle gets stuck in sand, mud,
ice, or snow and you want to rock your vehicle to
attempt to free it, or if you are driving in extreme
off-road conditions and require more wheel spin.
SeeIf Your Vehicle is Stuck in Sand, Mud, Ice or Snow
on page 4-44. To turn the StabiliTrak
®system back
on, press the StabiliTrak®button again.

Resetting the TPMS Identication Codes
Each TPMS sensor has a unique identication code.
Any time you rotate your vehicle’s tires or replace one or
more of the TPMS sensors, the identication codes will
need to be matched to the new tire/wheel position. Each
tire/wheel position is matched to a sensor, by increasing
or decreasing the tire’s air pressure. The sensors are
matched to the tire/wheel positions in the following order:
LF TIRE (left front tire on the driver’s side of the vehicle),
RF TIRE (right front tire on the passengers side of the
vehicle), RR TIRE (right rear tire on the passengers
side of the vehicle), and LR TIRE (left rear tire on the
driver’s side of the vehicle).
You will have one minute to match the rst tire/wheel
position, and ve minutes overall to match all four
tire/wheel positions. If it takes longer than one minute,
to match the rst tire and wheel, or more than ve
minutes to match all four tire and wheel positions the
matching process stops and you will need to start over.
The TPMS sensor matching process is outlined below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to RUN with the engine off.3. Turn the headlamp switch from off to the parking
lamps setting four times within three seconds.
A double horn chirp will sound and the TPMS low
tire warning light will begin to ash. The double
horn chirp and ashing TPMS warning light indicate
that the TPMS matching process has started.
The TPMS warning light should continue ashing
throughout the matching procedure. The SERVICE
TIRE MONITOR message will be displayed on
the Driver Information Center (DIC).
4. Start with the driver’s side front tire.
5. Remove the valve cap from the valve cap stem.
Activate the TPMS sensor by increasing or
decreasing the tire’s air pressure for 10 seconds,
then stop and listen for a single horn chirp.
The single horn chirp should sound within
15 seconds, conrming that the sensor identication
code has been matched to this tire and wheel
position. If you do not hear the conrming single
horn chirp, you will need to start over with Step 1.
To let air-pressure out of a tire you can use the
pointed end of the valve cap, a pencil-style
air pressure gage or a key.
6. Proceed to the passenger’s side front tire,
and repeat the procedure in Step 5.

Vehicles that have the Tire Pressure Monitor System
(TPMS) will need to have the TPMS sensors reset after
a tire rotation. See “TPMS Sensor Identication Codes”
underTire Pressure Monitor System on page 5-64.
Make certain that all wheel nuts are properly tightened.
See “Wheel Nut Torque” underCapacities and
Specications on page 5-114.
{CAUTION:
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the parts to
which it is fastened, can make wheel nuts
become loose after a time. The wheel could
come off and cause an accident. When you
change a wheel, remove any rust or dirt from
places where the wheel attaches to the vehicle.
In an emergency, you can use a cloth or a
paper towel to do this; but be sure to use a
scraper or wire brush later, if needed, to get
all the rust or dirt off. SeeChanging a Flat
Tire on page 5-76.
When It Is Time for New Tires
One way to tell when
it is time for new tires
is to check the treadwear
indicators, which will
appear when your tires
have only 1/16 inch
(1.6 mm) or less of
tread remaining. Some
commercial truck tires
may not have treadwear
indicators.
You need a new tire if any of the following statements
are true:
You can see the indicators at three or more places
around the tire.
You can see cord or fabric showing through the
tire’s rubber.
The tread or sidewall is cracked, cut or snagged
deep enough to show cord or fabric.
The tire has a bump, bulge, or split.
The tire has a puncture, cut, or other damage
that cannot be repaired well because of the size
or location of the damage.
