Ive got a 2011 cruze ls and I cant get the tpms system to relearn. I get to the tire pressure screen on the instrument panel but i get no response from the button on the end of the stalk, nor do i get a horn response. any Ideas ?
 
The tool has to be held exact angle and position.

Straight up and antenna in front of the valve stem in the tire area. About 2 inches.

If it don't work. Try a fresh battery. Works for me. If it still don't work. Time for a new tool.
 
There's a trick that works without the tool.
The people on here said it was discontinued in 2014 I think.

2011 can use the trick or the tool.

After 2014. The tool is needed.

The tool is designed for 2006 and later vehicles.

In 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 Chevy Cruze, you can reset the TPMS via the menu in the information display using the control button located on the turn signal lever. However, you need the TPMS Relearn Tool to do this. Follow these instructions to get started:
  1. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” position without starting the engine
    If your vehicle has an ignition button, press the Engine Start/Stop button without touching the brake pedal
  2. Press the MENU button repeatedly until you see VEHICLE INFORMATION menu on the display
    The button is located on the turn signal lever
    chevrolet oil tpms light reset
  3. Scroll down to the “TIRE PRESSURE” menu
    Use the thumbwheel to scroll down
  4. Press and hold the SET button to enter the relearn mode
    The horn will sound twice and the TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message will appear on the screen
  5. Start from the driver side front tire, use the TPMS Relearn tool to activate the tpms sensor
    Place the relearn tool against the tire sidewall, near the valve stem. Then press the button to activate the TPMS sensor
  6. Repeat the process for the passenger side front tire, passenger side rear tire, and the driver side rear tire
    A horn chirp will confirm that the sensor has been reset
  7. Turn off the ignition after you reset the last tire
    The TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message will disappear
  8. Adjust the tire pressure in all four tires recommended on the tire placard
    Done!

  • Use the TPMS Tester to activate the left front sensor
  • Horn will chirp once when the sensor ID has been matched to the left front
  • Repeat for the right front, right rear, left rear sensors
  • Horn will chirp twice to indicate the sensor ID has been matched to the left front and the TPMS sensor matching process is no longer active
  • The TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message on the DIC display will turn off
  • Turn ignition OFF
 
You don’t need any tools. Simply inflate all 4 tires to 50-55 psi. Then go inside the car and go to the tire psi menu. Hold the button on the end of the turn signal until it beeps twice. It will say tire relearn. Go to the front driver tire. And release air pressure until the horn beeps. Then go to the front passenger tire. Same thing. Release until it honks. Then passenger rear … release until it honks. Then. Driver rear and release the air pressure until the horn beep twice. Then you were done after that. Just go air up your tires to whatever PSI you want and you’re done no tool needed.
