Can someone point me to instructions on how to reset the TPMS monitors? Just put original Z06 tires and wheels on my 98 coupe. Some one told me a parts pan magnet will work for resetting them...?
Thanks for your help!

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

New sensors from Tire Rack for the 2000 work great and are dead on acurate. I am very pleased with them. Be sure to use a very strong magnet.

Everything works great until I go and stick the magnet on the front left wheel.... Nothing happens. The PCM is from an LS1 and these are 2004 Z06 wheels. Wouldn't think that would make any difference. The magnet I am using is from one of the dishes that you store parts/nuts/bolts.etc. in. A friend of mine said he used it and it work just find.... I stick it on the side of my tool box and you have to pull pretty hard to get it off...?

Either the magnet is not strong enough or you need new/rebuilt sensors, its not the 1st time I have seen someone try to retrain their sensors that were working great a week ago and them not train.

The sensors that are in the 04 wheels are different than what were in the 98 wheels. They changed sensors in 2000. Looks like I have to buy a prior to 2000 set. Anyone want to trade some 2004 sensors for some prior to 2000??
