These instructions apply to the Chevrolet Suburban (GMT900) 2007-2014.

Every 2007–2014 Chevrolet Suburban (GMT900) carries a direct TPMS sensor in each wheel. After rotating this big SUV’s tires you tell it which sensor now sits at which corner — and on this generation you do it with the key fob alone, no tool. This is the US-market procedure.
- Inflate all four to the placard pressure (below), set the parking brake, and switch the ignition ON (engine off).
- Hold the fob’s LOCK and UNLOCK buttons together for ~5 seconds until the horn double-beeps and TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE appears — it starts at the driver-front.
- At the driver-front, briefly let air out or add air until the horn chirps (up to ~30 seconds) — that corner is matched.
- Work round in order: passenger-front, passenger-rear, driver-rear. A final double-beep ends the relearn.
- Switch off and top all four to the placard figure.
The first wheel has a two-minute window, five minutes for the lot — restart if it lapses.
Chevrolet Suburban tire pressures (cold)
Pressures are set by fitted size and printed on the Tire and Loading Information label on the driver-side center (B) pillar — the authority for your vehicle. The common figure on these full-size SUVs is:
| Tire size | Front & rear (cold) |
|---|---|
| P265/70R17, P265/65R18 | 35 psi |
| P275/55R20 | 35 psi |
Set them cold and match your placard — a fully loaded Suburban with a trailer may call for a higher rear figure, which the placard lists.
FAQ
Do I need a relearn tool?
No — the GMT900 Suburban relearns with the key fob and a quick pressure nudge at each wheel. The later K2XX Suburban needs a relearn tool instead.
Which corner comes first?
Driver-front, then passenger-front, passenger-rear, driver-rear.
Light won’t clear?
Re-check all four cold pressures and run the relearn again; a sensor with a dead battery needs replacing.
