I am going to update my stock 98 wheels to 2000 thin spokes. Goodyear will do this but they said I will need to get the dealer to reprogram them. The senors will be taken from the 98 wheels and put in the 2000. If the LF goes back on the LF and like wise for the others, will they still need to be reprogramed? These are the bolt in type.

 

Tell them to put them in the same positions and you'll be fine. Even if they do not, reprogramming does not require a dealer - we can help you do it with a magnet...

 

here just incase they don't get them back in the correct wheel. all you need is a magnet.........

1) Turn ignition on 2) Press "Reset" button in order to clear any IPC display warning messages 3) Press and release the "Options" button on the DIC to scroll through the display options until the IPC display is blank 4) Press and hold the DIC "Reset" button for 3 seconds 5) Press the "Options" button again until TIRE TRAINING message appears 6) Press "Reset" button until the IPC "Learn L Front Tire" message appears in order to begin the programming 7) Install the J41760 Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) System Programming Tool (large magnet will do) over the left front valve stem 8) The horn will sound, indicating the left front TPM sensor is programmed (if this takes more than 15 seconds, pull magnet back and try again, it will give you three tries. Then you must start over) 9) When the horn sounds, proceed to program the next TPM sensor in the following order as directed by the IPC messages: -Learn R Front Tire -Learn R Rear Tire -Learn L Rear Tire Programming can be canceled by turning ignition off, waiting 2 minutes with no sensors being learned, finishing all 4 wheels or through the DIC. If the programming is canceled with less than 4 sensors learned, it will only accept the codes programmed up to that point.

 

You can reprogram the sensors yourself and save the expense of a dealer doing it. This is from the C5 Tech Tips section of the Forum: Resetting Tire Pressure Monitors

Good luck.

 

They don't need to be reprogrammed. Just put the old valve stems in the new wheels...

 

As long as the sensors are put in the same location, you should not have a problem. Can't understand why Goodyear can't reprogram them - all it takes is a magnet.

 

Even if they don't get it right it's a 10 min job to reprogram. No biggee
