Ebay/Amazon TPMS Sensor

[spedy7]

Might go to Rock Auto for a set for my other wheels, $25 a sensor is cheap!

For programming sensors to the car a relearn process has to be done, "tire training" as Ford calls it. Start off with the ignition on engine off, hit the brake once, cycle the ignition 3 times, hit the brake again, cycle the ignition 3 times, horn should honk. You'll need a tool like this to trigger each sensor LF, RF, RR, LR. It'll have to be done anytime you swap wheel sets since no more than 4 sensors are stored.

all you need is 4x of this. https://www.tpms.com/Ford-Schrader-33500-EZ-Sensor-TPMS-Sensor-p/ezs0280-f.htm Works every time.

No joke? I can buy these for my 18gt, and no programming needed? Just install and go?

yup. I have 3 sets of wheels I swap without a care in the world. NEVER have to re-train the car with the ^^^ referenced magic incantation or any 'tool/fob'. It just works.

Whatever you do do NOT buy the cheap-sh*t TPMS from American Muscle or CJ Pony. And if your Ebay el-cheapo units have an 'X' in magic marker on the body, it's a damn good chance they are dead. And the seller just ripped you off.

I would maybe go to Discount Tire/America's Tire and have them try to program with their programmers.

Yeah I took a gamble and prepared for the worst. So I wasn’t let down too bad since expectations were low. I was on a personal mission on trying to get wheel, tires, and tpms under 1k so I tried to save wherever I could.

i have an aftermarket set (came with the wheels) that won’t auto-sync to the car on their own. That’s ok the Ford sync tool is pretty cheap on eBay and works to get them to connect. Once connected they stay that way.

i actually kindof like using the tool after I switch wheels (which I do a lot) because I don’t have to wait and wonder if the tire pressures are correct to the wheels I’m using.

Yep. Bought these a few months ago. No reprogramming needed. They just work.

I bought a set from Amazon when getting new wheels for my '15. Couldn't get them to work even with the tool. Turned out one of the four was bad. After replacing the bad one they synced right up. A year later I put the same wheels on my '19 and they worked fine. Not sure if it was just bad luck or if the odds are greater of getting a bad one from Amazon or eBay.

I use tirerack. Cheap and works without any relearn device.
