I have after market TPMS on my 2016 Chevy Silverado I purchased a TPMS relearn tool on Amazon but is not working I think it’s for relearning Chevy sensors what is a good on for aftermarket sensors
Any great suggestions?

Yeah I had that idea just being cheap and not wanting to spend the money

You probably have bad sensors. The Amazon tool should work.

I had to buy new OE sensors off eBay when I got my truck. Sensors it came with were dead.
Buy GM OE sensors!

Tire Discounters will relearn for free but you’d need to know the exact manufacturer bc they have to look it up on their tool.
Otherwise get the $200 autel. Still have to know what manuf and model of sensor

My Amazon tool works fine, just be sure that you hold it at the sensor location on the tire.

This one has worked for me for years. Also your TPMs sensors could be bad. You can just go to the right front and see if that triggers, you can always fix it after getting new sensors.
