Display Pressures Mode

. To select, press and hold until  

  is displayed. 

This mode continuously displays 

each sensor’s location followed by its pressure. This will continue 

until the next key off/on cycle.

Display Sensor IDs Mode

: To select, press and hold until 

  is displayed. 

This mode continuously d

isplays each sensor’s location followed by its sensor ID. This is an 8 digit 

alphanumeric number 

corresponding to the number located next to the label “ASIC” on the sensor 

itself.  It is used by the TPMS Receiver Module to identify sensors. This display will continue until the 
next key off/on cycle.   See the example below:

Display Battery Status Mode

: To select, press and hold until 

 is displayed. 

This mode continuously d

isplays each sensor’s location followed by its battery status. This will 

continue until the next key off/on cycle. 
         - Is displayed if the sensor is inactive or missing. 
         - I

s displayed if the sensor’s battery is OK.  

         - I

s displayed if the sensor’s battery is low.  

Under normal driving conditions, a low battery means you have approximately 2 months of 
battery life left. 

Example:   

 

    

 

    

 

    

  

Display Temperature Mode

. To select, press and hold until  

  is displayed. 

This mode continuously d

isplays each sensor’s location followed by its temperature in degrees 

Celsius. This will continue until the next key off/on cycle.

BIM Learn Sensors Mode: 

 
Dakota Digital takes care of the initial configuration of the BIM-22-2 and associated TPMS Receiver Module and TPMS 
sensors so you should not have to go through this process. However, in the event a sensor is damaged during 
installation in a tire, upon tire replacement or if its battery has depleted, the module can be taught to detect and                                                                                
“learn” new sensors. Make sure there are no other TPMS sensors similar to those provided with the BIM-22-2 in the 
surrounding area as the system could receive from them and have adverse effects on this procedure. This includes 
any sensors you are replacing. These replaced sensors need to be removed from the area so that the system 
determines they are 

missing

 and are to be replaced by your 

new

 sensors. This mode will only function properly if all 

four TPMS sensors (including the new one(s)) are mounted in tires. If you want useful audible notification during this 
process (HDX only), enable the sound and increase its volume. For example, HDX: in the Setup->SW, Sound-
>Volume). Be sure to exit setup as alarms are not enabled while in the HDX setup menu. Follow the procedure below 
to configure the BIM-22-2 to detect and replace with new sensor(s): 
 

 

Follow the steps in the section 

Special Operating Modes

 to get to the  

 - 

BIM Learn Sensors Mode

Once in this mode, the BIM will start displaying  

  and 

  alternately. The digit on the left indicates the 

number of 

missing

 sensors detected and the digit on the right indicates the number of 

new

 sensors detected. 

 

In this mode, it takes approximately 2 minutes for the TPMS Receiver Module to detect missing sensors. 
During this time, the sensors in all four vehicle tires can be 

“woken up” by inflating or deflating the tires with a 

change in pressure of more than 2 PSI.  The alarm will briefly sound whenever a 

missing

 sensor or 

new

 

sensor is detected. The order in which you inflate/deflate the tires is not important in this mode. Note that the 
number of 

missing

 s

ensors may increase to “

” until the sensors are woken up. Once the sensors are woken 

up and detected, the correct value of 

missing

 sensors will be displayed. 

 

When the sensors have been woken up and the system has detected 

missing

 sensors, the BIM will alternately 

display  

  and 

 , 

 ,  

 , or  

  (depending on the number of sensors being replaced). The 

HDX alarm will briefly sound indicating the number of 

missing

 sensors and/or 

new

 sensors has changed telling 

you to move on to the next tire.
