Problem: The Autel MaxiTPMS TS508 will not work on my 2021 Ford Escape Hybrid. It does not trigger the sensors in the wheels if I set it to 2021(315MHz) which is the correct year and frequency. I updated the software already.
These are the OE sensors on my snow tires, that I cannot trigger and do a relearn and are causing the TPMS light to come on. While these are the OE sensors on my summer tires. They work fine and don’t need to relearn. When these tires are on the vehicle, the TPMS light is off.
It there anything I can try to make this work?
Solution
The client needs to activate the OE sensors with Autel TS508 according to the following menu, and then perform Test Drive.
Please park the car for about 15-20 minutes after the sensor programming and then perform automatic relearn.
Test Drive:
Turn off the ignition and then turn on the ignition. If an instructed test drives the vehicle for 10 minutes over 19 miles per hour or 30km/h to ensure the TPMS malfunction light no longer displays the sensor ID that has been written to the ECU. Autel TS508 will automatically erase the DTC present in the ECU.
