This worked exactly as described by the OP. On my first attempt I did not set the tire pressure, entered the re-learn mode and began driving, I experienced the loud beep accompanied by the steady light so I headed back home to start over. The second attempt went perfect, set tire pressures as listed by the OP, entered the re-learn mode (grounded to a door hinge bolt using a length of wire, exactly 6 taps), drove at 55mph for less than 2 miles and the light stopped blinking then came back on idicating low pressure, headed home, corrected the pressure in all 4 tires and all set.
Judging from my trial and error and some other members as well, the key to this re-learn seems to be making sure the pressure in each tire is set accordingly and making sure you are actually in re-learn mode.

 

I trade my wheel with my friend along with the tpms, so it trigger the light because it's not the same tpms. I follow the instruction and I failed like 10 times until this morning and it work!! Thank you

 

Having trouble entering re-learn mode like some others seem to have experienced. Right now, the system will immediately flash upon KOEO and while running, then at about a minute goes to steady on. Regardless of whether I try to enter learning mode, or clear out the code by holding to groun while turning car on and off, the system just doesn't care. It stays in fault mode. I can't even use the hold to ground method to read a fault code- the behavior simply does not change.

Any ideas what I should try next? I have confirmed my ground points are good with a multimeter. I should also add that these are aftermarket brand-new TPMS sensors designed to work with a 2010+ G37 (new style sensors, which I have confirmed via TSB guidance that my G is using).

Thanks

 

Got it working. Had to clear the code first before the relearn mode would activate. The easiest ground to use is the cig lighter and a wire works better than the paper clip.

 

Can anybody comment on what the guy said that new sensors need to be activated first for this to work? Any personal experience?

 

They don't need to be activated on the sense that they are always on if there's a battery in then. They just need to be paired.

The trouble i had seems to have been related to the connector not being secure enough. The quality of the ground is very important for this process to work.

 

Worked for me today after numerous tries. I installed new rims and tires with brand new orange tpms. After installing new rims the light didn't go on untill I drove the car the next day. My first try I couldn't get it into the learn mode. So I grounded the plug and turned the car on and off a total of 3 times. Then i proceeded to do the steps again and this got it to go into learn mode but once I started the car it would blink a couple of times and go solid. I read the thread alittle deeper and saw someone did it with the car started. So I tried it with the car started and failed. Tried again and it worked (blinking while car is started and on) drove the car towards the gas station and I see the light go off and stay off for a couple of mins and turn back on. Put air in the tires while the car was on and it turned off right away.

 

Same thing happened to me. As I mentioned, the paperclip method results in too intermittent of the connection. Once I used a wire that would securely stay in the connector it was much easier. Plus since it was long enough, I could sit upright in the car and see what was happening on the dash while I tapped the wire to the cigarette lighter rim- which is a very good ground.

 

I tried this method for my 08 nissan versa and it worked for me. I used TV cable and plug it into the TPMS outlet as shown on the first page. I plugged the cable to the small plug instead of the large one. I also found that someone might fail to ground that's because the large plug is with little metal part to contact with the cable. Once you follow the steps on the first page post, you would find the orange light blinking more than one minute and would not be solid. That means your TPMS is going to re-learn process, then dirve your car for a moment you would find lit blinking consistantly, then the orange lit became solid for around two seconds and went off. (I only drove 5 mins and the lit is off) Later, the light was on again but it's not the malfunctional way, it's just solid one and didn't blink. That was because one of my tire was needed to inflated. After inflating all the tire to the reguired PSI, I solved this blinking problem. For your infomation. Btw, I thought why we should set different PSI for each tire is just because by doing this, it let the TPMS know which tire it is. That means the TMPS know the highest PSI should be the Front Left tire and the lowest PSI tire should be the Rear Left tire, then TPMS can tell the technician which tire may have problem if he/she has connected the TMPS computer with the car. Just guess.

 

Makes sense and sort of my assumption too, though I'd add that it's probably also to help the system calibrate itself to the new sensors, since the range of values can help with signal mapping.

Like you, just a guess.

 

And one more thing, I found that once your take off your tire from your car, then the blinking problme will come out. The interesting point is that, this problem won't show up until your drive your car back home. The blinking orange light will show several days later. Even if your technician reset TPMS right after installing the tires back. To me, it's almost a "definite" problem once your move your tire from your car. The TPMS might not connect its sensors but it will tell you several days later. It's very strange. So, let your car technician know that you will revisit him/her several days later for resetting the TPMS.....

 

I just did it with my 2008 G37 coupe and it worked perfectly. First try it didnt work because i was not touching the paper clip with something that was grounded. Thank you

 

Thanks OP - I installed my TPMS sensors into my winter tires a couple weeks ago - and have had the 60 seconds of blinking tire light - then solid light. THe connector is hard as ***** to see up close to these 44 year old eyes - but once I had the wire connected properly - and then grounded to the brake pedal mount - it entered re-learn mode, went for a drive - and then the light went out. Aired the tires back to regular levels, all good.

Light is out!

Thank you!

 

Has anyone done this successfully on a 2012 G37? I have not been able to get into learn mode. There's a connector in the location described (taped to the OBD wiring harness), but there are two wires going into the connector whereas all the pictures on the thread show one wire. So I'm questioning whether this is the right connector. Maybe they changed the connector for 2012 models? I attached a picture of the connector I've been working with.

Any help is appreciated!

 

I'll bump this and second the request. I have a 2012 XS and my connector looks very different from the OP instruction photos.

Any help is appreciated.
