Troubleshooting
1. Sensor Not Detected
jt
  • Possible Causes:

    • Sensor battery depleted

    • Wrong frequency or incompatible sensor model

    • Sensor not properly installed or damaged

  • Solutions:

    • Verify sensor frequency (e.g., 315 MHz or 433 MHz)

    • Replace sensor if battery is dead (non-serviceable)

    • Reinstall or replace with compatible TPMS sensor


2. TPMS Warning Light On (After Installation)
jt
  • Possible Causes:

    • Sensor not programmed or paired with vehicle ECU

    • Incorrect vehicle protocol used during programming

    • ECU requires a reset/relearn process

  • Solutions:

    • Program sensor with vehicle-specific data

    • Perform TPMS relearn procedure (static, OBD, or auto-relearn depending on vehicle)

    • Confirm correct torque during installation


3. Incorrect Tire Pressure Reading
jt
  • Possible Causes:

    • Sensor calibration issue

    • Physical damage to sensor or valve stem

    • Environmental interference (temperature changes, RF interference)

  • Solutions:

    • Verify with a calibrated manual gauge

    • Replace faulty sensor/valve

    • Recheck torque on valve stem nut


4. Intermittent Signal / Dropouts
jt
  • Possible Causes:

    • Weak sensor battery

    • Poor signal reception due to wheel/rim design

    • Radio frequency interference

  • Solutions:

    • Replace sensor with weak battery

    • Ensure proper installation and orientation

    • Use a TPMS tool to check signal strength


5. Unable to Program Sensor
jt
  • Possible Causes:

    • Incompatible programming tool

    • Outdated tool software/firmware

    • Wrong vehicle selection in the tool menu

  • Solutions:

    • Update TPMS tool software

    • Confirm tool compatibility with sensor

    • Ensure correct vehicle year/make/model selection


6. Multiple Sensors Not Responding
jt
  • Possible Causes:

    • Vehicle ECU malfunction

    • Incorrect relearn procedure performed

    • Interference from aftermarket electronics

  • Solutions:

    • Perform full ECU scan/reset

    • Redo relearn procedure with correct steps

    • Eliminate nearby interference sources

7. Sensor Physical Damage
jt
  • Possible Causes:

    • Improper mounting/dismounting of tires

    • Over-torquing the valve stem nut

    • Corrosion due to road salt or moisture

  • Solutions:

    • Replace damaged sensor/valve stem

    • Follow torque specifications (typically 4–7 Nm for valve nut)

    • Use nickel-plated cores and caps to prevent corrosion
