TIA has introduced a revised and updated version of its popular TPMS Relearn Chart, and association officials say plans are underway to create a digital version for tire dealers.
The update includes all 2009 and some 2010 model-year cars, TIA said, and can be ordered by phone (800-876-8372), or via the TIA Web site at www.tireindustry.org.
The new charts have been updated to include NAPA sensor and service pack numbers.
The TIA TPMS Relearn Chart is divided into two sections (domestic and import vehicles); in each section, vehicles are listed by make, model and year. Each listing includes:
• The type of TPMS, whether direct or indirect.
• Three columns of data that indicate when a system relearn is necessary (i.e. after a change in air pressure, tire rotation, or tire/sensor replacement).
• A relearn summary (this includes a reference number that corresponds to the vehicle’s procedure for initiating sensor relearn mode). The vehicle relearns are located in the back of the corresponding section, either domestic or import.
• The sensor manufacturer.
• OEM sensor part number, Schrader replacement sensor part and service pack numbers, Dill replacement sensor part and kit and band numbers, Continental replacement sensor part and kit and band numbers, and NAPA replacement sensor part and service pack numbers.
• The torque specifications for the sensor nut, torx bolt, worm gear, and lug nuts.
