To train the sensors, you need a strong (preferably u-shaped or circular) magnet. Some people have gotten them from Radio Shack, Home Depot, etc. An old speaker magnet will often work. These can be obtained from car stereo installation places from the factory speakers they replace.
1. Turn the key to ON (don’t start the car).
2. Press the DIC RESET button to clear any warning messages, if they are present.
3. Press the OPTIONS button and cycle through the menu until the display goes blank.
4. Press and hold the RESET button until FOB TRAINING appears on the display.
5. Press the OPTIONS button once and the TIRE TRAINING message should appear.
6. Press the RESET button once, and the LEARN LEFT FRONT TIRE message appears.
7. Hold a magnet over the valve stem on the left front wheel. You may have to move it around the valve step to hit the right spot.
8. When the horn beeps (about 5 seconds later), programming is complete for that wheel.
9. Program the other three wheel sensors as directed by the DIC message display. The sequence is as follows: Left front, right front, right rear,

When I had my new rims and tires changed, I made sure the guys knew to keep the sensors in the same position they were in. I didn't have any problems when they were finished and I rolled out the shop.
