Hey all, have any of you guys around here bought the following programmer?

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...oven-work.html

If not is there any interest from anyone if I purchased one and offered to program sensors for anyone here?

 

hellllls yes im interested! ive been dealing with the damn tpms light since i got my X.

do i need to buy anything and keep it in the trunk or something or are you just programming the tpms part on the ecu?

 

from what i understand that programmer clones your existing tpms sensors so you don't have to reprogram the ecu at all. You would need to buy a set of sensors but the programmer will then wirelessly download. I am still a bit out for this but wanted to feel the interest as last time i did the math the initial investment will be like $600 if i buy a programmer and sensors.

 

Are there no TPMS sensors that will fit non-OEM wheels?

 

its not that will fit from what i understand its if you stick with say oem or aftermarket sensors you would need to have the ecu reprogrammed by the dealer. with this solution your cloning the ones programmed stock and can make as many copies so that if you have a couple sets of wheels or summer/winter setup you don't have to have it reprogrammed each time. The ecu can only be programmed for one set of tpms sensors at a time.

 

oh damn... i dont even have oem tpms sensors... well i will get back to you if i can source a set for cheapish. i dont mind pushing the info button lol ive been doing it a year and a half now

andrew: the oem tpms sensors for the X fit prolly 90% of aftermarket wheels

 

I swapped to Aftermarket Raijins and have never had a TPMS issue. Of course fields cars with Enkies so I hope they would work.

 

I went to Ishii Motor Industries in Bellevue, Wa and they charged me 10DOLLARS :O to get reset the tpms!

 

Reset or reprogrammed? Explain please.

 

Reprogrammed* No more tmps light!

 

if i bought a set of 4 oem tpms sensors would I have to have them installed or could i say have u program them (or ishii) and stick em in my trunk?

 

Well dont you have a set of tpms sensors on the wheels you have on the car already? all you have to do is take it to then and theyll reprogram it and itll mate to your car. i dont think just putting them in your trunk will work said other people on the forums because it requires kinetic energy for them to work

 

crappers... yeah i bought the car used with aftermarket wheels without tpms sensors

 

i could reset your tpms light its not hard i do it all the time. i got scanner from snap on thats STRICTLY FOR TPMS SENSOR ONLY on any car.

 

Ishii took care of mine too, no problem
