I had a
terrible time doing the relearn after installing my MRR 228's. The tool and TPMS stems just would not link up. I searched around but couldn't find anyone else with the problem so I assumed I was doing something wrong.
Took it to the dealer, they couldn't get them to reset either... ugh...
How I "fixed" it:
L/F Tire - set valve stem to the 7:30 o'clock position
R/F Tire - set valve stem to the 5:30 o'clock position
Rear Wheels - Removed (car was properly jacked up, of course)
Start the relearn process
Kneel down at the L/F tire and point the tool at the TPMS from the front and center of the tire - HONK!
Kneel down at the R/F tire and point the tool at the TPMS from the front and center of the tire - HONK!
At the R/R tire, point the tool at the TPMS from the inside of the wheel - HONK!
At the L/R tire, point the tool at the TPMS from the inside of the wheel - HONK! - DONE!
I went thru this process maybe 4-5 times before I got all 4 tires reset because time ran out and I had to restart the process. I had to move the tool around quite a bit for the rear tires trying to "aim" the tool at the TPMS stems.
It took a while and some effort, but eventually was successful.
