SILVER Star
Hello all,
I wanted to put TPMS in my new-to-me rock warriors. I ordered four of the the Denso 550-0103 transmitters off Amazon.. part number cross referenced from rockauto. Per my research this is a Pacific Industries made, denso-supplied version of what comes OEM on my 2013 cruiser.. and they look exactly like what I see in pictures and such.
Installed everything, mounted tires, and finally got around to bringing the tires back to the shop to have the TPMS recoded. (Techstream doesn't want to work).
Odd thing is the tire shop's tool can't pick up any signal from the TPMS transmitters in the wheels. Not that it's not the right frequency or anything.. which should only impact the vehicle reading the signal.. just.. nothing. The old factory spare with TPMS is readable instantly with his scanner.
Do these things need to be switched on or activated or something prior to use? I can't find anything about it online and their tech said he's never heard of a sensor like this. He did try some kind of electronic "unlock" that his scanner had, but I'm betting that is for clonable sensors only.
I don't want to run clonable sensors as I prefer denso quality and reports of the battery life on these are great.
Any Ideas?
