The horn sounds twice to
signal the receiver is in relearn
mode and the TIRE
LEARNING ACTIVE message
displays on the DIC screen.
6. Start with the driver side front tire.
7. Place the relearn tool against the tire sidewall, near the valve
stem. Then press the button to
activate the TPMS sensor.
A horn chirp confirms that the
sensor identification code has
been matched to this tire and
wheel position.
8. Proceed to the passenger side front tire, and repeat the
procedure in Step 7.
9. Proceed to the passenger side rear tire, and repeat the
procedure in Step 7.
10. Proceed to the driver side rear tire, and repeat the procedure
in Step 7. The horn sounds two
times to indicate the sensor
identification code has been
matched to the driver side rear
tire, and the TPMS sensor matching process is no longer
active. The TIRE LEARNING
ACTIVE message on the DIC
display screen goes off.
11. Turn the vehicle off.
12. Set all four tires to the recommended air pressure
level as indicated on the Tire
and Loading Information label.
Trailer Tire Pressure
Monitoring Operation
If equipped, the Trailer Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(TTPMS) is designed to monitor the
pressure of the trailer tires and warn
the driver when a low pressure
condition exists. TTPMS sensors for
four tires are provided. The system
can accommodate a trailer with up
to six tires if additional sensors are
purchased from the dealer. Also, the
system can be paired with up to five
individual trailers.
Prior to use, the vehicle must learn
the sensors by following the
learning process. See Trailering App
0 306.Contact your trailer service center or
tire service center to have the
pressure sensors installed inside
the trailer tires. The technician
should insert the sensor stem
through the hole in the trailer wheel.
When the sensor is correctly
positioned, the nut on the sensor
stem should be tightened to 8 Y
(6 lb ft). When mounting the trailer
tire onto the trailer wheel be careful
not to damage the sensor.
The Trailering App can be used to
view the tire pressures after the
recommended trailer tire pressures
have been entered. Refer to the

Chevrolet Silverado Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-
13337620) - 2020 - CTC - 1/27/20
Vehicle Care 391
trailer tire placard on the trailer or
the trailer tire sidewall for the
recommended tire pressure.
The system is compatible with
trailer tires that have placard
pressure values from 103 - 689 kpa
(15 - 100 psi). The hole in the wheel
for the tire stem must be 11.43 mm
(0.453 in) in diameter. Use of the
pressure sensors on a wheel with a
different stem hole size could result
in loss of air from the tire.
If a low trailer tire pressure condition
is detected, the TTPMS displays a
warning message on the DIC. If the
warning message is displayed, stop
as soon as possible and inflate the
tires to the recommended pressure
shown on the tire placard on the
trailer.
In addition, the TTPMS monitors the
temperature of the trailer tires. If the
system detects a high temperature
on one or more of the trailer tires, a
warning message will be displayed
on the DIC. If this warning message
is displayed, stop as soon as
possible, and inspect the
overheated trailer tire. Commoncauses for high trailer tire
temperature are underinflation,
overloading, or tire damage.
TTPMS Malfunction Message
The TTPMS will not function
properly if one or more of the trailer
tire sensors are missing or
inoperable. If the system detects a
malfunction, a DIC message
indicates that the system requires
service. Some of the conditions that
can cause the service message to
occur are:
.
One of the trailer tires has been
replaced with the spare tire
which does not have a learned
TTPMS sensor. The DIC
message should turn off after the
pressure sensor is installed in
the tire, and the learning process
is performed successfully. See
"TTPMS Sensor Learning
Process" under Trailering App
0 306.
. The TTPMS sensor learning
process was not done or not
completed successfully. The DIC
message should go off after successfully completing the
sensor learning process. See
"TTPMS Sensor Learning
Process" under
Trailering App
0 306.
. One or more TTPMS sensors
are missing or damaged. The
DIC message should go off
when the TTPMS sensors are
installed and the sensor learning
process is performed
successfully. See "TTPMS
Sensor Learning Process" under
Trailering App 0306.
. Operating electronic devices or
being near facilities using radio
wave frequencies similar to the
TTPMS could cause interference
to the TTPMS which could
cause loss of signal reception
from the sensor.
. If the system does not receive
the signal from an individual
sensor, an error message may
not occur until the vehicle has
been driver for a period of time.
If the TTPMS is not functioning
properly, it cannot detect or signal a
low tire condition. See your dealer

for service if the DIC message
comes on and stays on when the
trailer tire pressures have been
checked and determined to be
correct.
Tire Inspection
We recommend that the tires,
including the spare tire, if the
vehicle has one, be inspected
for signs of wear or damage at
least once a month.
Replace the tire if:
.The indicators at three or
more places around the tire
can be seen.
.There is 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.
Tire Rotation
Tires should be rotated every
12 000 km (7,500 mi). See
Maintenance Schedule0437.
Tires are rotated to achieve a
more uniform wear for all tires.
The first rotation is the most
important.
Anytime unusual wear is
noticed, rotate the tires as soon
as possible, check for proper tire
inflation pressure, and check for
damaged tires or wheels. If the
unusual wear continues after the
rotation, check the wheel
alignment. See When It Is Time
for New Tires 0394 and
Wheel Replacement 0399.
Use this rotation pattern when
rotating the tires if the vehicle
has single rear wheels.
Dual Tire Rotation
When the vehicle is new,
or whenever a wheel, wheel
bolt, or wheel nut is replaced or
serviced, check the wheel nut
torque after 160, 1 600, and
10 000 km (100, 1,000, and
6,000 mi) of driving. For proper
torque and wheel nut tightening

Return the jack and tools to their
original location in the vehicle. See
“Removing the Spare Tire and
Tools.”
Full-Size Spare Tire
If this vehicle came with a full-size
spare tire, it was fully inflated when
new, however, it can lose air over
time. Check the inflation pressure
regularly. See Tire Pressure0383
and
Vehicle Load Limits 0197. For
instructions on how to remove,
install, or store a spare tire, see Tire
Changing 0402. If equipped with a temporary use
full-size spare tire, it is indicated on
the tire sidewall. See
Tire Sidewall
Labeling 0377. This spare tire
should not be driven on over
112 km/h (70 mph), or 88 km/h
(55 mph) when pulling a trailer, at
the proper inflation pressure. Repair
and replace the road tire as soon as
it is convenient, and stow the spare
tire for future use.
Caution
If the vehicle has four-wheel drive
and a different size spare tire is
installed, do not drive in
four-wheel drive until the flat tire
is repaired and/or replaced. The
vehicle could be damaged and
the repairs would not be covered
by the warranty. Never use
four-wheel drive when a different
size spare tire is installed on the
vehicle.
