An easy-to-use handy TPMS service tool with complete TPMS functions including activation of all known sensors, programming MX-sensors to replace OE sensors, displays vehicle-specific relearn procedures, and can perform OBD II relearn procedures, totally saves trips to the dealer’s repair site.
- Two Modes: This tool provides two options to perform TPMS repairs:
- Quick Mode: It allows you to perform basic TPMS works such as checking TPMS sensors and programming MX-sensors, you can save time and energy by choosing the most suitable way to complete TPMS work.
- Advanced Mode: In this mode, you can check TPMS sensors, diagnose TPMS, read TPMS DTCs, perform MX sensor programming, and conduct sensor position relearn as well. But, need activate all TPMS to read DTCs, behinners may need time to get used to it.
- TPMS Diagnosis: It allows you to perform TPMS diagnosis to find out TPMS related problems. You can check sensor-related problems, deflation in the tires, and the rotation of wheels. Supports over 50 brands, almost covers all makes that equipped with tire pressure system, very cost-effective.
