This procedure relearns the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensors on the 2024 Rivian EDV 500 after tire rotation, sensor replacement, or pressure adjustments using the vehicle's onboard system and diagnostic tools.

Warnings

Tools required

Parts

• TPMS sensor valve core (if damaged) × 1 — Use OEM specification
• TPMS sensor valve cap × 4 — Use OEM specification

Preparation

1. Park vehicle on level surface and engage parking brake
2. Ensure all four tires are inflated to the proper pressure as specified on the door jamb placard (typically 42 PSI front/rear for EDV 500)
3. Turn off vehicle completely and ensure all doors are closed
4. Verify TPMS sensors are functioning by checking for warning lights on instrument cluster
5. Have vehicle VIN and tire sensor IDs available if performing manual programming
6. Ensure 12V battery is in good condition with adequate charge

Procedure

1. 1

   Access Vehicle Settings
   Press the brake pedal and press the power button to turn on the vehicle without placing it in Drive. Access the center touchscreen display and navigate to Settings > Service > Tire Configuration. If this option is not available, you will need to use the TPMS scan tool method instead.
2. 2

   Verify Current Tire Pressures
   Using a calibrated tire pressure gauge, verify each tire is at the correct pressure specification. For the 2024 EDV 500, this is typically 42 PSI for all four tires when cold. Adjust pressures as needed using the tire inflator. Wait 15 minutes after driving before checking pressures to ensure accurate cold readings.
3. 3

   Scan Existing TPMS Sensor IDs
   Using the TPMS scan tool, activate and scan each tire sensor starting with the driver front, then passenger front, passenger rear, and driver rear. Hold the TPMS tool against the tire sidewall near the valve stem for 5-10 seconds until the tool confirms sensor detection. Record all four sensor IDs.
4. 4

   Enter TPMS Programming Mode
   Connect the OBD-II scanner to the diagnostic port located under the driver side dashboard. Turn vehicle to ON position (press brake and power button without pressing accelerator). Navigate to TPMS functions in the scan tool menu and select 'TPMS Relearn' or 'Program Sensors'. The instrument cluster should display a TPMS relearn message or indicator light will flash.
5. 5

   Activate Driver Front Sensor
   With the vehicle in relearn mode, place the TPMS scan tool against the driver front tire valve stem. Press the activate button on the tool. The vehicle will sound the horn once or display confirmation on the instrument cluster when the sensor is successfully recognized. Wait for confirmation before proceeding to the next wheel.
6. 6

   Activate Passenger Front Sensor
   Move to the passenger front tire and repeat the activation process with the TPMS tool against the valve stem. Wait for horn chirp or visual confirmation on the display. If no confirmation occurs within 30 seconds, repeat the activation.
7. 7

   Activate Passenger Rear Sensor
   Proceed to the passenger rear tire and activate the TPMS sensor using the scan tool. Confirm successful recognition via horn chirp or instrument cluster display before continuing.
8. 8

   Activate Driver Rear Sensor
   Complete the sequence by activating the driver rear tire sensor with the TPMS tool. After successful recognition, the vehicle will sound the horn twice or display 'TPMS Relearn Complete' on the instrument cluster, indicating all four sensors have been programmed.
9. 9

   Finalize Relearn Via Touchscreen
   If using the vehicle's built-in relearn function, return to the touchscreen Settings > Service > Tire Configuration menu. Select 'Confirm New Tire Configuration' or 'Complete TPMS Relearn'. The system will process the new sensor positions for approximately 30-60 seconds.
10. 10

    Exit Programming Mode
    Turn off the vehicle completely by pressing the power button. Disconnect the OBD-II scanner if used. Wait 10 seconds, then restart the vehicle to allow the TPMS system to initialize with the new sensor configuration.
11. 11

    Clear Diagnostic Trouble Codes
    If any TPMS-related diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are present, use the OBD-II scanner to clear them after confirming the relearn was successful. Navigate to the DTC menu and select 'Clear Codes' or 'Erase DTCs'. Verify no new codes are present after clearing.
12. 12

    Perform System Verification Drive
    Drive the vehicle for 10-15 minutes at speeds above 25 mph to allow the TPMS system to fully calibrate and verify all sensor positions. The system will confirm proper operation by displaying individual tire pressures on the instrument cluster and clearing any TPMS warning lights.

Reassembly

1. Ensure all valve stem caps are securely installed on each tire
2. Verify no TPMS warning lights are illuminated on the instrument cluster
3. Disconnect any diagnostic equipment and stow properly
4. Document the new sensor IDs and positions for future reference

Verification

• Confirm the instrument cluster displays individual tire pressures for all four wheels
• Verify the TPMS warning light is not illuminated and no fault messages appear
• Check that tire pressure readings on the display match the actual pressures measured with the tire gauge (within 1-2 PSI)
• Perform a brief test drive and confirm tire pressure readings update in real-time
• Deflate one tire by 5-7 PSI and verify the TPMS warning activates within 2 minutes, then re-inflate to proper pressure
• Use OBD-II scanner to verify no active TPMS-related DTCs are stored in the vehicle computer
