8.Once 30 seconds have passed, with the vehicle still in “IG-ON” mode, remove the jumper wire.

NOTE:If “Lost Communication With ECU” appears during the registration process, then terminals TC and CG were not connected properly or the key was cycled during this process.

10.After registration has been performed, leave TIS Techstream connected and confirm that the tire pressures are reading correctly and the thresold pressures show a difference of 5 to 7psi less than the inflation pressure. For vehicles with a TPMS reset switch, press and hold the reset switch to begin the initialization process.

11.After tire pressures and thresholds pressures display on the datalist, adjust all tire pressures in relation to the expected changes in ambient temperatures.
