Re-programming TPMS sensors on a GM vehicle using El-50448 TPMS Re-Learn Tool (2019 Chevy Impala)

In this video, I use a basic Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) tool re-learn tool to re-program my TPMS in my 2019 Chevrolet Impala.

The TPMS re-learn tool I used is an Augocom EI-50448, though there are many identical looking ones out there.

Need to buy one?

For anyone else with a 2014-2020 Impala (likely very similar procedure for other GM vehicles), here is how to do a TPMS re-learn:

1) Enter diagnostics mode by holding the ignition start/stop button for 5 seconds (do not press the brake pedal)
2) Find the tire pressures page on the dash display
3) Hold down the ‘checkmark’ button on the steering wheel. The horn will sound twice
4) Go to the front left tire. Position the TPMS tool near the valve stem and hold the button until the horn beeps
5) Go to the front right tire, and do the same thing
6) Go to the rear right tire, and do the same thing
7) Go to the rear left tire, and do the same thing
8) The horn will double beep to indicate success. Turn off the ignition, start car, and you should be set!

Note that you may need to hold the button for a while... it took close to 30 seconds to pair the first TPMS sensor. Just hold the button until the car beeps at you at each wheel.

After many unsuceesful tries with other videos I came across this one. It it is the best and fixed my problems relearning the TPMS on my 2015 Tahoe Z71 after rotating tires. I used the cheap Amazon EL-50558. Important note: as he says in the video sometimes you have to keep holding the button down since it can take longer on different tire positions. Also, I used the 5 second hold on the start button (don't press the brake pedal) and did it without the engine running.

Bought one and worked first time 😊 Apparently the garage said all my tpm sensors where faulty at £100 a pop they lied. Great video thank you saved me money.

It worked! Getting to the learning mode on my Buick is a little different, but just as easy. The rest of the procedure is identical. It took less than 2 minutes. I bought the EL-50448 from Amazon. A different brand, but identical unit for less than $13. I am so grateful for you and this video. Thank you.

Mate you're a legend. bought one and tried all the ways didn't work. was pissed off and thought i bought a faulty device and wanted to get a refund. came across your video by chance and IT WORKED.

CHEERS LAD.

Just did this on my 2023 Camaro SS. Exactly as you described. I previously could not get one of the tpms sensors to detect while I tried the reset sequence with the engine running. But your video inspired me to use the five-second start button hold to get the car into tpms reset mode with the engine off. I suspect the engine, while running, must send out enough RF interference to mess with the weak signal coming out of the reset tool. Anyway, doing the procedure with engine off worked great. Thanks!

I have one of that model.
I just kept pushing it and it didn't work like that.

Until I saw your video and I kept the button pressed.

This video helped me.

Thanks. This worked for my 2020 chevy traverse. Also try pointing the antenna through the rubber to the back side of the valve stem.

[JohnJones-ijmb]

Ordered unit from Amazon... set my tires with ease on my PontiacG8gt! Thanks for the how to vid!👍🏿

[davidthompson]

If you put the antenna close to the tire much faster just a tip and a single press of the button is all that is needed

[rrfarfan]

Thanks for the tutorial. It worked on my chevy trax 2019. I used the EL-50448 model

That black antenna is also a great way to hold against the sidewall/rim as close to the valvestem as possible. Try holding it straight on to the rubber the closest to the valve and it might help it pick up the signal better. Especially true with a weak transmitter.

Thanks for the clear video -- very helpful. I bought a similar-looking tool but it came with no instructions whatsoever.

[Alfredo-dhvd]

Thanks! I kept trying to do it on my 2018 impala while I had the car on and it wouldn't relearn :-/ now thanks to your video I got it now

[vadim]

Thank you so much for the detailed video!MALIBU 2016!

[raolito]

Here 2024 mine still works. Just did it on a 2019 Escalade.

[teresadamon]

Thank you so much for posting this video. Saved me a ton of money.

[jeanettelewis]

Thank you so much for the detailed video!

[Whereisgod]

Thanks for the tip about keep pushing the button!

Hi, will this tool work on Land Rover Evoque 2020, also does any one know how to put Evoque in learning Mode.

[robertpaulson]

No luck on 2015 equinox. Waited a min and tried on all 4 tires never beeped. But got beep and went into learn mode😊
