Default 07 Tahoe TPMS Help!

So all my tires had air in them but the 2 passenger side had too much air and they warning came on so i got out and took a little bit of air out and jumped back in the Tahoe and click relearn tire positions. Now as soon i did that 3 TMPS stopped working.(driver rear, and both passengers) now to me thats odd becase it was just working perfectly and has never given me an issue. So i click relearn again and bam none of them work now and have been like that for a couple days.

I dont think there broken since they literally worked and then the next second they didnt. and i was parked in my driveway. Do you guys know of any fixes? maybe a fuse??

Thanks for your help in advance i really appreciate it.

If you are looking to fix the situation yourself then I don't have a whole lot of information for you. Though I would suggest you take the vehicle to a dealership. They would be able to read any error codes that may be coming up on your vehicle and better diagnose what the issue is by actually seeing the vehicle. I hope this helps you!

Silly..... When you took the air out you fixed your original problem. When you hit relearn tire positions you did exactly that..... but you didn't completely do it causing the computer to go hay-wire. Don't worry I did this the day after I got my truck too. Relearning position button is just for when you rotate tires or change to the spare NOT for when you add or remove pressure. To fix what you have done all you have to do is hit the tire position button again and let a few pounds out of the driver side front until the truck honks, then pass side front, pass side rear and driver rear. Each time let air out or put air in until truck honks. I may be wrong in the order but your trucks signal light should stay on in the corner you need to do next. It should also be in your manual if you have it. After you've relearned all the tires the truck should honk a few times I think then you just add or remove pressure with tire gauge as needed at each tire. Everything should be good to go after that. If its still not working you'll have to hit the dealer to get it checked out.

Good Luck!

I think the relearning procedure is weak at best. I've had nothing but problems with mine when trying to relearn the tire locations. I've had the "Inflation Alert" icon come on in my instrument cluster several times while attempting to relearn. The dealer will reset them in seconds with their computer. What I do now is just leave the damn things alone. If a tire goes flat, I suspect I will know where it is!

Yeah I fixed it yesterday evening. It took about 4 or 5 attempts to do it but i did it. The first tire wouldnt set at first but then the second wouldnt set. But after a couple attempts i got them all to set and it worked just like stated and the blinker light does come on.

Also i had the compressor with me and took out air and added sum to just find that sweet spot.
