Default Tire Pressure Sensors

What is the procedure to synchronize the pressure sensors to the vehicles computer? I know which sensors are front and rear just not left or right. Thanks,

Paul

Paul, I don't know how to put this without sounding like a smarta$$, so take it with a . The steeringwheel is on the left!
The instructions are in the owner's Manual.

I removed the tires from the rims and did not mark them. I know what sensors are front and rear just not left of right. I want to install them on the proper rim when the new tires are installed. That is the problem. I tried to put 36 psi on the small sensor hole while the sensor was in the car, turn on the ignition but the readout says all tires are flat with 0 pressure.

They do not need to be reprogrammed to the origional spot there were in, just program them to the proper wheel, ie the correct order. Simple to do. Car needs to be moving to display a pressure if you have a 97-00 car.

You can also program them sitting in the driver's seat, holding them in your hand, then mark them, and reinstall them. This works good if you ever wonder if you have a bad one. That way, you never install a bad one.
