Where can I get TPMS sensors for my Wheels?
If you’re ordering a set of winter wheels and tires, add new TPMS sensors to your purchase. Within our wheel & tire drop-down menu, you will also see tire pressure sensors listed.
When do I need to replace my tire pressure sensor?
These can even be used to replace many of the older “band” style TPMS sensors that are clamped inside the drop center of the wheel. When TPMS sensors are replaced (either individually or all four at the same time), or when the tires are rotated, the vehicle’s tire pressure monitoring system has to relearn the wheel location of each sensor.
Can you change tires and TPMs at the same time?
Depending on the make and model of your camper, this may or may not be an easy process, but that doesn’t mean that changing tires and tire pressure sensors go hand in hand. That’s not to say that under certain circumstances, you can’t do both at the same time. Here’s what you need to know. TPMS sensors are equipped with permanent batteries.
What to do when your TPMS light comes on?
Try inflating the tires to a couple psi over the car recommended pressure (say 35 instead of 32), and then drive on the highway for about 10 minutes. I have a lazy sensor on my Altima that I have to do this with every time I rotate the tires.
If you’re ordering a set of winter wheels and tires, add new TPMS sensors to your purchase. Within our wheel & tire drop-down menu, you will also see tire pressure sensors listed.
Do you need to reprogram TPMS every time you replace a tire?
A tire may need air, repair or replacement, a rim may be damaged and need replacing or a sensor may be damaged or dead. Each time a tire is replaced or moved to a different position on the vehicle, or when installing new TPMS sensors, you may need to reprogram the system.
What does a TPMS alert mean on a tire?
Usually, a TPMS alert means one or more of your tires has lost air pressure. To resolve this for you we can run a check, refill your tires, and reset the TPMS so you can safely get back on the road. Sometimes, a TPMS alert means one or more of the TPMS sensor batteries has died.
When do I need to change my tire pressure sensor?
Indirect tire pressure measuring systems or iTPMS sensors will trigger a warning light for any one or all of your tires. But, if you’re confident that your sensors are working properly and you know how to reset and recalibrate your sensors, then you may not have to change the TPMS sensors at the same time as your tires.
