After several trips to Firestone and two different dealers, the program procedure for "NEW" TPMS sensors is as follows:
Turn ignition on then off 3 times
Press brake and release
Turn ignition on and off 3 times and dash should have message stating truck is in tire learn mode
Then take handheld learner around to TPMS on each tire starting driver front then work your way around clockwise.
As each sensor is learned horn will honk one time letting you know truck has learned that sensor
The method of pressing flasher button three times to put in learn mode is only for when rotating tires, the sensors have to be programmed first using method above.
I just put a set of Tremor take off tires and wheels that came with sensors on my 2024. I drove a couple of miles as per the manual, then put it in learning mode with the emergency flasher button. Tried a programming tool, didn’t work, tried letting air out and that didn’t work either. Tried the method the OP mentioned and that didn’t do anything. I called the local tire shop and they said I need to bring it in so they could reprogram the sensors to my truck since they were already programmed to another truck. By the time I drove the 15 miles to the tire shop they had programmed themselves and were displaying the correct pressure and location.
Just so you guys know. The factory sensors themselves do not get "programmed".
They each have a unique ID, and the TPMS system in the car is what has to
get "programmed", by recognizing that ID.
Now they do sometimes need to be "woken' up, as they stop displaying any signal
to save batt, if not in use for a while.
Aftermarket sensors like Autel's, can be programmed with any of these unique ID's.
On my Shelby, my second set of wheels/tires for track, I used the exact ID of the factory
sensors for each Autel sensor. No re-learning needed ever, you just don't want to store
the extra set of wheels tires, near the vehicle when parked.
I just bought some take offs but no sensors. I bought new ones from the dealer and then just took them to discount tire and they did exactly as the OP said. didn't even charge me without buying tires from them.
