Program Jeep Summer Tires with Autel MaxiTPMS PAD

 Spring is coming and it’s time to replace a set of summer wheels. This is a Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT-8 (WK2). The programming procedure can be applied to other models.

Back in the summer, I bought myself a new set of tires. The tires on which I bought the car were already worn out, cracked, etc. Last season I decided to ride on it, and for this summer to change tires. Both old and new tires are the same Pirelli Scorpion Verde runflat 295 45 20. I don’t want to leave the runflat, even though it is heavier.

Initially, there were no sensors in the summer wheels, I think they were stolen from the previous owner during painting and ordinary valves were installed.
The Chinese sensors in the winter kit showed themselves perfectly, they registered themselves, they didn’t give a single error for the whole winter. So I decided to repeat the experiment.
On Aliexpress , another set was ordered at number 56029398AB.

Then i ordered the Autel MaxiTPMS pad.

The main task of the device is to make clones of original sensors on any car from Autel sensors, but it also has the function of checking any sensors, this was the main point, to check Chinese sensors before installation. It also often happens that the id number written on the sensor does not match the number registered in the sensor, and if it is necessary to register the sensors manually, this will be a problem.

We put the program on the computer

Choose a car brand, choose the year of release

You can use the original sensor number

Put the sensor on the PAD

We press check, we hear peak-peak-peak and blinking of a green light and see on the screen

Parts pictured: 56029400AE

The screen displays the sensor ID, temperature, battery status

For the correct display of the parameters, set the parameters in the settings

Just in case, I wrote down the ID numbers on the sensors.

I also prepared reciprocal stickers in order to stick them on the disks from the inside, so that during installation you can understand where which sensor is, again, if you have to prescribe it manually.

I went to the tavern and threw the rubber, inserting sensors.

In general, the jeep is waiting for the installation of the summer, let’s see how the sensors register. There were no problems with winter roads, they registered immediately, they never failed during the winter.

By the way, another feature of the Autel TPMS PAD is the ability to read the sensor on the assembled wheel.

Which Tool to Pair 2019 Toyota rav4 TPMS Sensors?

Car model and year: 2019 Toyota rav4

Purpose: looking for an aftermarket or OEM device that would allow me to pair my TPMS on my winter tires.

Advice:

Toyota uses a proprietary system, Honda, and Chrysler for example don’t and I understand if you install an unprogrammed module itself programs with those makes, I just updated the TPMS from some winter tires on a 17′ Rav4 to a 19′ Rav4 and the TPMS sensor had to come out and be placed in the TPMS programmer to accept the new car data, I looked for one to buy, read here somewhere someone bought one from Tire Rack, called them, they disagreed, they had nothing, so.

Find a friendly tire jobber and try your luck, I understand Toyota can do it, but then you have to reprogram every winter summer wheel switch.

Background:

After the TREAD Act was mandated in 2007, all vehicles manufactured in the United States beginning in 2008, must be installed with direct or indirect TPMS systems.

The Toyota RAV-4 is installed with a direct TPMS system, which means there are TPMS sensors in the wheel. If one or more tires indicate low tire pressure, the TPMS sensors will transfer the information to the vehicle’s ECU. An indicator light (low-line TPMS system) or each tire pressure will show on the dash (high-line TPMS system).

A TPMS relearn is recommended after a sensor replacement or tire rotation. When services are performed, such as a tire change or TPMS sensor replacement, in one or more tires of a Toyota RAV-4, a TPMS relearn must be performed to transfer the sensor information to the vehicle’s ECU.

Type of TPMS system:

Direct TPMS, sensors are installed in the wheel

Sensor Frequency:

315MHz

Type of TPMS tool required for TPMS reset:

Option 1: Techstream and mini VCI interface cable ($20-$30) on a laptop will work fine.

Techstream can program the car and is essentially free but not the easiest to use. It also has a ton of other uses (e.g. program key fobs).

Option 2: Autel MX-sensor TPMS sensors can be cloned to match the IDs of your existing sensors – no need to then program the car when swapping wheels. Sensors are ~$25 each, the programmer/reader is another $50. I am running this setup on a Lexus, Rav4.4 and a Nissan.

Option 3:  Carista Android/iOS app can program the car. I got mine for $40/lifetime but they since changed to subscription model ($9 per day IIRC). The good thing is that it is possible so likely someone else will come up with a cheaper alternative soon.
