Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPMS)

Reviewed by the Service Reset editor · Updated October 14, 2026 · How we verify

These instructions apply to the Chevrolet Equinox Mk2 2010-2017.
For other models, please choose your vehicle here.

The 2010–2017 Chevrolet Equinox has a direct TPMS with a sensor in each wheel. After a tire rotation you relearn which sensor sits at which corner — GM does this in a sensor-matching mode with an inexpensive relearn tool. This is the US-market procedure.

  1. Set all four tires to the placard pressure and apply the parking brake. Ignition ON, engine off.
  2. Press DIC MENU to the Vehicle Information menu and scroll to the Tire Pressure screen.
  3. Press SET/CLR to begin, then again to confirm — the horn sounds twice and TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE shows, starting at the driver-front.
  4. Hold the relearn tool at each valve stem in order — driver-front, passenger-front, passenger-rear, driver-rear — waiting for the chirp. A double-beep after the driver-rear ends it.
  5. Switch off and set all four to the placard pressure.

You have two minutes for the first wheel and five overall; if it times out, start again.

Cold pressures and tire sizes are on the Tire and Loading Information label on the driver-side center (B) pillar — that placard is the authority. The compact spare takes 60 psi.

FAQ

Do I need a tool?

Yes — a GM-compatible TPMS relearn tool (about $15) triggers each sensor in turn. It’s a cheap DIY buy.

What order are the wheels?

Driver-front, passenger-front, passenger-rear, driver-rear.

The light stays on.

Re-check cold pressures and repeat; a flat sensor battery will need replacing.

If your Equinox stores a fault code with the warning light, look it up on autodtcs.com.
