Default Rotate tires on 2006 Liberty - 04-19-2007 , 01:24 PM






My 2006 Liberty has a tire pressure monitoring system. Do I need to do
anything different when rotating tires?

Do a full rotation, including the spare.
When you have the pressure checked, check the spare too.
If it gets low it can give you a low tire indicator light that will drive
you nuts if you forget it.

Someone else posted here the other day that they read their owners
manual and reprogrammed or retrained the computer when they rotated.

Maybe you use a magnet or something?

I don't have your owners manual here to tell you for sure.

The sensor is on the valve stems. The sure solution to your problem
is to have the tires dismounted and remounted on different wheels,
leaving the wheels in the original location. It may cost more but it
will work.

I missed that post. I'll recheck the manual, but I didn't see anything
about the procedure under "rotate tires" or "Tire Pressure Monitoring
System"

The sensor is on the valve stems. The sure solution to your
problem is to have the tires dismounted and remounted on different
wheels, leaving the wheels in the original location. It may cost
more but it will work.
No need to go to the trouble, according to the article referenced:

"The system identifies the location of the four mounted tires by way of
a simple initial training process. The EVIC is put into a programming
mode while a magnet is momentarily placed, in sequence, on each of the
valve stems. A signal is sent back that identifies the LF/RF/LR/RR tire
locations as well as the spare (if equipped). This is an easy process
that can be done by anyone, and is explained in detail below."

Here's the link again so you can see the retraining process:

It shouldn't take more than a couple of minutes if you do your own
rotation and the tire store/dealer should include that when doing a
rotation.
