2010 CADILLAC ESCALADE ignition

Your vehicle's TPMS can warn you about a low tirepressure condition but it does not replace normal tiremaintenance. SeeTire Inspection and Rotationonpage 7!71andTires on page 7!58.
Notice:Liquid tire sealants could damage the TirePressure Monitor System (TPMS) sensors. Sensordamage caused by using a tire sealant is notcovered by your warranty. Do not use liquid tiresealants.
TPMS Malfunction Light and Message
The TPMS will not function properly if one or more ofthe TPMS sensors are missing or inoperable. When thesystem detects a malfunction, the low tire warning lightflashes for about one minute and then stays on for theremainder of the ignition cycle. A DIC warning messageis also displayed. The low tire warning light and DICwarning message come on at each ignition cycle untilthe problem is corrected. Some of the conditions thatcan cause the malfunction light and DIC message tocome on are:
.One of the road tires has been replaced with thespare tire. The spare tire does not have a TPMSsensor. The TPMS malfunction light and DICmessage should go off once you re!install theroad tire containing the TPMS sensor.
.The TPMS sensor matching process was startedbut not completed or not completed successfullyafter rotating the vehicle's tires. The DIC messageand TPMS malfunction light should go off once theTPMS sensor matching process is performedsuccessfully. See“TPMS Sensor MatchingProcess”later in this section.
.One or more TPMS sensors are missing ordamaged. The DIC message and the TPMSmalfunction light should go off when the TPMSsensors are installed and the sensor matchingprocess is performed successfully. See yourdealer/retailer for service.
.Replacement tires or wheels do not match yourvehicle's original equipment tires or wheels. Tiresand wheels other than those recommended foryour vehicle could prevent the TPMS fromfunctioning properly. SeeBuying New Tiresonpage 7!73.
.Operating electronic devices or being near facilitiesusing radio wave frequencies similar to the TPMScould cause the TPMS sensors to malfunction.
If the TPMS is not functioning it cannot detect or signala low tire condition. See your dealer/retailer for serviceif the TPMS malfunction light and DIC message comeson and stays on.

TPMS Sensor Matching Process
Each TPMS sensor has a unique identification code.Any time you rotate your vehicle's tires or replace oneor more of the TPMS sensors, the identification codeswill need to be matched to the new tire/wheel position.The sensors are matched to the tire/wheel positionsin the following order: driver side front tire, passengerside front tire, passenger side rear tire, and driverside rear tire using a TPMS diagnostic tool. See yourdealer/retailer for service.
The TPMS sensors can also be matched to each tire/wheel position by increasing or decreasing the tire's airpressure. If increasing the tire's air pressure, do notexceed the maximum inflation pressure indicated on thetire's sidewall.
To decrease air-pressure out of a tire you can use thepointed end of the valve cap, a pencil-style air pressuregage, or a key.
You have two minutes to match the first tire/wheelposition, and five minutes overall to match all four tire/wheel positions. If it takes longer than two minutes, tomatch the first tire and wheel, or more than five minutesto match all four tire and wheel positions the matchingprocess stops and you need to start over.
The TPMS sensor matching process is outlined below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON/RUN with theengine off.
3. PressQandKon the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter at the same time forapproximately five seconds. The horn sounds twiceto signal the receiver is in relearn mode and TIRELEARNING ACTIVE message displays on the DICscreen.
4. Start with the driver side front tire.
7-70

5. Remove the valve cap from the valve cap stem.Activate the TPMS sensor by increasing ordecreasing the tire's air pressure for five seconds,or until a horn chirp sounds. The horn chirp, whichmay take up to 30 seconds to sound, confirms thatthe sensor identification code has been matched tothis tire and wheel position.
6. Proceed to the passenger side front tire, andrepeat the procedure in Step 5.
7. Proceed to the passenger side rear tire, and repeatthe procedure in Step 5.
8. Proceed to the driver side rear tire, and repeat theprocedure in Step 5. The horn sounds two times toindicate the sensor identification code has beenmatched to the driver side rear tire, and the TPMSsensor matching process is no longer active. TheTIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message on the DICdisplay screen goes off.
9. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK/OFF.
10. Set all four tires to the recommended air pressurelevel as indicated on the Tire and LoadingInformation label.
11. Put the valve caps back on the valve stems.
Tire Inspection and Rotation
We recommend that you regularly inspect your
vehicle's tires, including the spare tire, for signs of
wear or damage. SeeWhen It Is Time for New
Tireson page 7!73for more information.
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles
(8 000 to 13 000 km). SeeScheduled Maintenance
on page 8!3.
The purpose of a regular tire rotation is to achieve
a uniform wear for all tires on the vehicle. This will
ensure that your vehicle continues to perform
most like it did when the tires were new.
