I’m sorry but this guys Accent gets on my Nerves ! Especially when I have heard his pitch from the beginning of his video’s over and over again ! I’m sure that if I could get past it I might be able to save some money
Like every tool if you’re only going to use it once it will be expensive. If you aren’t going to replace your own tpms sensor you most likely don’t need a tpms sensor scan tool.
I bought a TPMS scanner on Amazon for $11.00, for Ford/Mazda, and when I went around all four tires, one of the sensors did not communicate (no beep sound from the car.) I know what the issue is now with the TPMS light and won't get ripped off by a shop to replace the sensor. I bought the Mazda sensor for $22.00.
Yeah and if you have a compressor you can probably install it your self by breaking loose the bead one the front of the tire and then remove and replace then inflate your tire to the recommended psi .
I have 2010 Mercedes CLS550 the tpms light start blinking and then go solid after a while , a message “ Tire pressure monitoring system is inoperative “ I went to a tire place they said one of the sensors is bad ( they replaced it with new ) then they said ( the tpms module is bad ( they replaced it ) and the the same warning light keep coming back after driving for several miles , Also I can’t view the individual tire pressure on the dash board ( is this car is not occupied with such option ? Appreciate ur reply, and appreciate all the videos ur posting , they really saved me a lot of money as a senior living on limited income
I have the xtool d8 when I do the tpms check it shows all 4 tires it shows a number for 1 tire. is that the bad sensor or is it the working sensor and the other 3 are bad
No. I have a MaxiTPMS TS508 which I paid £250 late last year, it can read ALL TPMS sensors on the frequency 433MHZ (most european cars use 433MHZ and US is often 315MHZ), I believe it can also read 315MHZ sensors but as mine and my dad's car use 433MHZ I can't confirm this. Whether the kit can read the sensor or not is nothing to do with the brand, it's the frequency, the sensors in the tyres transmit the information on a set frequency, and if your TPMS tool can receive signals on that frequency, there's no reason it won't work. Programming is slightly different as this means communicating with the ECU and newer modern cars can sometimes have encrypted ECU's which a generic tool might not be able to bypass. I was able to program some £15 TPMS sensors I bought off eBay to my BMW 335d's ECU with the TPMS TS508 though via the included OBD cable.
@@thefiestaguy8831 Sorry let me rephrase my question. But first thanks for letting me know it “reads” sensors already installed. I did more research; what I meant to ask if I was to replace a tpms and went to “reprogram" a new sensor to the car I would not be able to do so unless the new sensor was Autel brand. This is in their advertisement. that is the reason that buying this reader does not work for those wanting to reprogram a new sensor or say a set of snow tires unless they have Autel brand sensors already installed.
@@lmntrlmntr3496 Yes, I believe it can only "program" directly Autel brand sensors, however you don't need to program the sensor like that though. You can do what I did. I bought a set of 4 generic sensors to fit my BMW, they weren't BMW branded or even Autel branded. I had them fitted to the wheels, and of course they weren't recognised. I then used the program sensors function and selected "Program by OBD"... this isn't shown in the menu on this video as this is the TS408 model which doesn't support this, but my TS508 does. I then scanned each sensor and then connected the tool to the OBD port on my car, and it wrote the new sensor Hex values to the car's ECU. It then worked fine. It is possible with the newer version using the OBD method, the kit that comes with the TS508 includes an OBD cable and a magnet (as some sensors need a magnetic field to "wake them" after installaton).
@@thefiestaguy8831 Thanks for the info! You may have found a work around with your car that may or may not work for others. My 2008 Civic is the type the specifically has to be OBD connected for the reprogram process. I will do some research on the TS508. Incidentally, my tpms sensors are original so they are now 15 years old! That is the reason I may just buy genuine part within reason for price: they range so much that sometimes I think you get what you pay for maybe in the battery portion of the sensor.
@@angelisone no, because there are a lot of Brands and models and Hyundai can Chance the supplier of These Sensors. So you can have this oder another Model of Sensors, weich can have different batteries and can be different sealed. There are Sensors you can open and other you cant without destroying them. So stfu when you got 0 clue of life
@@haihappenuhaha You are so wrong. Based on the year & model, just buying anything it has lot /or code number. You have never done one. Really, a Porsche 959 has a piece of overpriced $#$% TMPS. $96,000.00 for 4 TPMS sensors. I only replaced the battery because the TPMS sensor no longer being made.
I'm sure great content, and clearly a knowledgable and enthusiastic presenter, but the presenter is speaking about 20-30% too fast. SLOW DOWN! Also consider, you have an accent, so for standard English speakers we have to listen more carefully, even if you're speaking slower.
It is in the scheme of things. Some diagnostic tools cost thousands... a key programmer is in the region of £3,000 plus. I'm not a mechanic of any kind, I don't even do oil changes myself or brake pad changes.. I can change a tyre and I swapped the infotainment screen in my BMW 335D to the larger one and programmed it in myself but that's about it, yet I have one of these MaxiTPMS TS508 which I paid £250 for... I'm not "well off" either.
Yeah... If you were able to reset a tpms sensor with a tpms scan tool and the light is still on you did something wrong caise if the sensor was bad it wouldnt even scan to reset it

Did you say the TPMS scanner was not expensive? $149 for a tool I'll use once is pretty expensive.
Like every tool if you’re only going to use it once it will be expensive. If you aren’t going to replace your own tpms sensor you most likely don’t need a tpms sensor scan tool.
once? you only have 1 tire? you’ll only have 1 car your whole life? 150 for a part to save you 400 in the shop numerous times seems nice to me
Bought my tool after tyre shop could not figure how to activate sensor as they couldn’t even find a ‘mini’ on their tool..

Help I change my front passenger sensor and it still reads as bad sensor if tho I bought in at the auto part store
Straight Forward👍
I can’t find the links you said you provided at the bottom of the video I only sent-shirts for sale????
You guys are the bomb
Lovely ❤
I have the xtool d8 when I do the tpms check it shows all 4 tires it shows a number for 1 tire. is that the bad sensor or is it the working sensor and the other 3 are bad
Is it true that the brand tpms reader used in the video can only read autel brand tpms? Can it read any brand and original equipment tpms as well?

What battery model is inside of the TPMS Sensor for a 2011 Hyundai Tucson?
Anyone knows, please share.
Difficult to say because we dont know which sensor you have installed.
@@haihappenuhaha If you don't know then don't reply.
You don't know because you never done one (Tucson).

Really, a Porsche 959 has a piece of overpriced $#$% TMPS. $96,000.00 for 4 TPMS sensors.
I only replaced the battery because the TPMS sensor no longer being made.
If he would talk a little slower I could’ve understood him much better, but he’s going 90 miles a minute lol
Should you replace the bad TPMS sensor or change its battery only?
If you don't know what you are doing. Then change the sensor.
My staff & I change all 4 batteries on vehicles that we CAN NOT get sensors.
I have one that I used at the Chevy dealership and paid $75 for 15 or so years ago …
I have to replace the tpms in my right rear tire as well.
Might as well replace all 4 unless you are plaining on selling it.

MaxiTPM is $250. That is not cheap.
Change the battery like what ATG has shown many pros/mechanics/diyers.
It is in the scheme of things. Some diagnostic tools cost thousands... a key programmer is in the region of £3,000 plus.

just delete the sensor using forscan , then it wont come up
Not expensive? It's 200 bucks
Don’t talk so fast can’t understand what you are saying. 👎
Yeah... If you were able to reset a tpms sensor with a tpms scan tool and the light is still on you did something wrong caise if the sensor was bad it wouldnt even scan to reset it
Please just do it , do not need to explain to much .. Thanks
I'm sure you know what your doing BUT , your accent is way off on trying to comprehend what your sayin ??
Is he speaking in english?
