Default Tire pressure sensors

In an effort to get my 2009 Suburban to relearn sensors I examined this site, while the info is good my vehicle appears to not have relearn tire sensors in the list. How can I correct my situation? Please help.

have them relearned with a tpm tool. If they will not register, you probably need new sensors.
this tool should work. i had one like it and it worked on 09 and older...not sure why 09 aren't listed for it.

Go to discount, they can retrain properly. I have never had a failure on any of my sensors and I always back them up with a manual reading. My sensors are about 1-2lbs off.
They have saved my butt a few times with nails etc on trips.

I have to agree..One day they tell me I got 25lbs in my tires then 2 days later they tell me I got 29lbs in them..My gauge tells me I got 35lbs in them all around..That is on my 2016 Tahoe.
