Changing tire size with AE

I am having trouble changing my tire size with AE. It says to cycle the key. Does this mean turn the key off and then back on again?

Thats what I would think. turn key to off position and then back to on position. I just got me AE at work today and loaded it on my laptop. Cant wait to get home and plug it up to the truck and see what she says. I know I have problems.

Yes. Once you make a tire size change in the ABS module, you turn the key off and then back on again to make the change take effect. I changed mine by .25 inch increments until my speedometer matched my GPS.

Also, what makes it accurate may not be what you think your tire size is. With my 35" tires, I need AE set to about 33.25" for it to be accurate.
