A quick skim of it and it looked like something our shop with a not entirely dependable internet connection would never ever use. There's something where they want you to upload your customer info to "the cloud"(someone else's computer). Imagine! It's pretty asinine and pointless. The other day I had a Dodge where the section "Body Control Module" contained.the Body Control Module. Someone decided to "group" the modules according to whatever arrangement scheme suited THEM.
It disappears pretty quickly but is still annoying. There's big splash screen before you scan a car sometimes that tells you to BE SURE TO PLUG YOUR SCANNER IN or some such waste of my time. One guy chimed in saying it will now program 2015 Chevy truck keys. Boils down to a LOT of a ADAS stuff which I suppose is wonderful for body shops doing late model stuff with lane cameras and such. Pretty quick and easy versus having to press the gas pedal a bunch of times and turn the key a bunch of times - that's going to save you a lot of time by just going through with the scan tool.If that link work. It tells us that all of the monitors have been programmed properly. So we're going to go left front, right front, right rear, left rear, and that should complete the process.Įverything is programmed, the system is all sets, it says the system is active and it gives us all of our tire pressures. We need to trigger it with some sort of a tire pressure monitoring trigger tool. To program, these we have to go around each tire in sequence, starting with the left front. The horn sounds and that means we're ready to go, so let's go and train these sensors. I need to cycle the key to ignition on, and this procedure will enable TPMS Sensor Location Training Mode, which is what we're going to teach the computer where the wheels are. That's a whole lot of stuff you've got to walk through so let me just exit out of that and we'll go through it with the scanner. It looks like eight steps over three pages.
So let's see if you didn't have a scan tool, what you would have to walk through before you did this. The one on the bottom is TPMS Training Mode Without Scanner. We have two different things listed here. It's inside the Body Control Module on this so I'll go in there and then to Functional Tests. It will auto ID and here's my vehicle: 2014 Ford transit connect. Let's load it into Scanner and we'll pick the Ford. Let me walk you through that process using this Ford truck. When you rotate the tires, if you need to replace a sensor or something like that, a lot of times you have to go in with a scan tool and reprogram it to the vehicle. Tire pressure monitoring systems had been required on all cars in the United States since September of 2007.
