Hey guys, I had the vehicle mentioned above in the shop today for a basic service and had the tires rotated. Both identifix and mitchell prodemand had almost no info on whether or not positions need to be re-learned or if it will relearn new positions on it's own while being driven.

We found a function on scanner to relearn ID's, so we went ahead and followed the steps. At one point it did say that proceeding will cause ID's to be cleared and must be triggered with appropriate tool to complete process. Fine and dandy, nothing that hasn't been done before and sounded straight forward. Clicked OK and TPMS light on dash started to flash - perfect I thought, now we're in relearn mode I suspected. Grabbed by trigger tool and it wouldn't ID a sensor. Grabbed another trigger tool and it did read sensor, but vehicle gave no confirmation about receiving signal, and scan tool, which showed 4 tires did not show any indication module had received a trigger signal. So I went around and did all 4 tires, nothing from the vehicle side that anything was completed. TPMS light still was flashing. No pressures could be read from dash. Trouble code C1769 was set in TPMS module -- Tire air pressure monitoring system configuration cannot be performed.
Receiver ID registration cannot be performed-- This code would set immediately, if cleared.

After a few hours of phone calls and reading, it was determined to drive vehicle while in this learn mode - TPMS light flashing - for minimum of 10 minutes above 20mph. Did that and light went out and pressures returned to dash and all was well, or so I thought. I got back to shop and was going to adjust pressures to spec and when I adjusted left front tire, the right rear position changed it's pressure reading on the dash. And vice versa, RR adjusted, the LF psi changed. RF and LR were in correct positions. I didn't want to go through this again, and just left it. 

Any Nissan guys want to chime in and call me a bone head for not doing something...feel free. What an awful start to the week, but did learn something however, so not a total loss. 

Ya I think I will do that

I did see Rogue and Rogue Select on my TPMS trigger tool. I believe they were different frequencies. This vehicle was 433MHz, and I used Rogue - not Select.

Rogue and Rogue Select was also offered on Mitchell ProDemand. I feel I did use the correct vehicle when looking up S.I.

However, if no re-learn is required, why were the LF and RR positions flip flopped? I supposed I should have looked at scan data and compared ID's on scanner to ID's read from trigger tool and furthered my diagnosis

This vehicle has been a regular at our shop for service, so I will check next time it's in and maybe rotate tires so ID's match proper corners. Care to expand on why Nissan is using the ABS system to ID wheel position? Or is it just part of that module function?
