  1. Using the TPM-RKE Analyzer Tool, select TPM Functions, then enter the Model Year and the Body Style of the vehicle, and for the Trigger Selection select LEARN ID.

NOTE: If a TPM-RKE Tool is not available, let the vehicle sit stationary for more then 20 minutes, and then drive the vehicle for a minimum of 10 minutes while maintaining a continuous speed above 24 km/h (15 mph).
