This guy is the Goat of Ford I love how he explains what he is doing I love seing your videos I hope you never stop
This Tool worked perfectly for my 2010 Ford Fusion 👌...this guy is right on the money when it comes to Fords, I hold on to his every word, especially since I'm a Ford man!
Tool worked perfectly.
Bought it on E Bay for $13
Thank you as always
Worked great on my 09 Explorer. Got the tool for like $25 and all 4 sensors for $200. Spent $225 vs $400+. So I’m very happy to have saved $175+.
Thanks!!
its about 7 years after this video was posted, but it just helped me out! ordered some new wheels and tires for my F150. the website suggested i purchase that tool, but it didnt give any instructions for it so i didnt purchase one. was gonna just have a shop do it, but now i can buy the tool and i dont have to pay the shop fee and whatever labor they'd charge to do a 5 minute job.
I am truly greatful to you sir. I just programmed my tpms to my 2010 F150 FX4 5.4L. Worked like a charm.
May God richly bless you with health, wisdom and more knowledge even to know about the Creator of the universe.
Man, I can't thank you enough for helping us out. I just did exactly what you instructed and it never felt so good like getting that stupid light of my dashboard cluster. Thanks again
Excellent video. Bought the sensor tool 3 years ago after seeing this video but didn't have to use it until this morning. Worked perfectly.
I bought this tool 8 years ago and never used it. Your instructions were spot on and worked great to reset my TPMS error after swapping wheels thank you!
for which vehicle
Dude you're a lifesaver. After trying the hazard light version of tpms learn mode (which wouldn't work no matter how many times I tried) your version of key cycles totally worked on my 17 RS! Thank you!!!!
Hey I've got a 2009 f150 and did the relearn trick you showed but didn't need to use the relearn tool. Just let the air out for like 5-10 seconds once your in relearn mode. Worked like a charm. My tire shop here couldn't figure it out. Thank you for this video. Super easy to do. I love when ford does stuff like this to make it easy. I wish they had a manual that showed you all the things you can program by turning a key. 🤣
Which model do you have? I have the same 09 f-150 and letting air out not working for me, not sure if I’m missing something
I was about to return some new sensors in my aftermarket wheels until I watched this. Turns out the air pressure method is for sensors already synced. This method worked great to sync my new sensors. Thanks man!
May God bless you!
That's all I can whish for someone who sincerely teaches others!
Really old video, but as valuable today as it was when you first posted it. Ditto for the 5.4 plug removal video. Thorough, concise, and well laid out. The links to the right parts are an added bonus. Thanks!
I change my winter and summer tires/ wheels over twice yearly and reprogram the sensors each time of course.I am impressed that the original wheel sensors on my 2009 F150 still work 15 years later.
This is also how you clear the TPMS "error" as well. Just program each wheel as shown and you will no longer have the error on your instrument cluster.
do you know if chevys have the same procedural fixes like the release air method? like 09 chevy traverse a friend of mine has the message displayed on IC display and a -- displayed on RR side in the information mode on displayed panel
@@darrenbryant9277 I don't know
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I took my 2010 F-150 to the shop to install the new TPMS sensors I purchased and they still couldn't get the warning light to go out. Thankfully, I remembered your video and I have the TPMS transmitter, so I used your method to reprogram the sensors and it worked like a charm!
I have the same year Ford F150 and a tire pressure fault light came on the dash and I took it to a mechanic and they replaced 2 bad sensors but they could not get the warning light to go off. Its annoying seeing that light. So all I have to do is buy the transmitter in the above link and go through the process in the video? Thanks!
Thank you for the video, I tried the process with a different relearn tool and it wasn’t working so I got the little grey one instead and it worked perfectly this time, much appreciated
Thanks VERY much for this, it cleared up 2 problems I was having:
1. The button on the (TPMS-19-8C2Z-1A203-A Transmitter) tool is pressed and released
( as in clicked, I was holding the button down.)
2. To enter training mode, I was being too slow on brake pedal/cycling the ignition key.
(2010 Ford Ranger)
Thank you sir. Got the sensor error after rotating the tires on my 2012 Lincoln MKZ and this procedure probably took me no more than 3 minutes. Super simple.
I bought that tool from a Ford dealership and it worked great. Just like you said. Thanks so much.
Worked perfect on my 2009 E350 Econoline.
When I turned key 3 times. I accidentally turned key to the off position the third twist. After watching your video 2nd time. I noticed my mistake. Wouldn’t work at first.
Re did procedure and worked great. Ty Ty.
You are the one who understands the explanation the most, thank you
When I bought new tires at Discount Tires, they reset the air sensors free after correct pressure for each tire.
This works
Also you can turn the key on or push button without stepping on the brake
Push the hazard lights 3 times in a row that will put it in tps learn mode
I think it's more simpler
I keep that tps learn remote in my glove box for when I rotate my tires
This does work. Confirmed on our 2015 mustang.
Awesome video. I have used the tool before and it always works. Thanks for the information about lowering the tire pressure. Never heard of that before.
I was having an issue with my "low tire pressure" error symbol on my 2012 Fusion coming on my dash. Without buying ANY special tools I simply ensured that the tire pressure on all four tires was spot on INCLUDING the spare, DO NOT FORGET ABOUT THE SPARE. I then pressed the HAZARD button on then off THREE times and before I could get out of my driveway the horn beeped and magically the error symbol went off and hasn't come back. Remember: if you have any appreciable miles on your vehicle you like I have gone through several sets of tires which means your TPMS wheel sensors have probably long ago been discarded by some tire tech. I suspect it was low pressure on the spare that was causing the error code. Good luck!
It worked on a 2008 Escape and the sensors were opposite the valve stem on this model. Thanks!
Worked great on my 2010 Mercury Mariner. The tool was only $28 when I bought it on Amazon April 2019.
First guy to actually give good information and get to the point.
Thank you sir, this saved me so much time and money. This device here in Canada from Ford company is $95.00. It worked. thanks.
just had new tires & sensors on my 2011 escape. got the tool off amazon for $13 and it took literally 1 minute to train them.
Dam, your videos are the best. I honestly would love to apprentice under you. I've had my 2010 Edge for less then a year and so far you've helped me with the dreaded water pump replacement (that was fun😁), axel seal replacements, and now this. Turns out my sensors were the ones 180 deg from the stem.
Honestly thanks for all the help.👍
Totally worked on my Lincoln MKX . Can't thank you enough. After more than a year light is gone and stayed off.
Thanks I just received my relearn tool and went outside and was able to my new sensors working just fine. Thank you again.
2010 Escape with 141K miles the original TPMS units have been dead over a year and was replacing new Michelin tires last Christmas along with ordered new replacement Motorcraft 9L3Z-1A189-A TPMS sensors, they are the real deal not clones.
Also ordered the Super EL50448 (2 in 1 TPMS Relearn Tool). Medical issue wifes hip (her Escape parked) two months hence delayed before the TPMS Relearn Tool applied) with app 140 miles driven to hospital and post surgery checkups before relearning tool applied.
Tire pressure at 32 psi following this video, I get a dash instuction to learn left front tire. With the Relearn Tool and 6 to 10 cycled power on button I get two car horn beeps, the dash showing TPMS Failure. These are brand new Motorcraft TPMS sensors.
I read to drive and within 30 minutes to recheck before the TPMS sensors shut down to save the batteries. Same failed results even after airing up to 38 psi.
Do I have to air down all four to 20 psi then back up to 32 psi (Ford spec psi) then check again with relearning the TPMS sensors? New battery 9.6 volts meter tested. PLEASE HELP! THX.
Worked great on my 05 Aviator. I used the let air out technique with dorman sensors. Thanks for the help.
What about the spare
@@L701_TB my spare didn't have a sensor
On a Ford Fusion you can put it into training mode by hitting the hazard button 6x.
I have one of the low dollar TPMS reprogrammer transmitters. It is the orange one that is as cheap as $10. It works for the first 3 tires but the 4th one doesn't do anything and the training mode isn't completed. I have to get a replacement sensor for this wheel.
What I'm not sure about is the electronic tool I need. From other videos it seems like you have to program the new sensor with a code for your particular year/make/model sensor. This is a more expensive tool with a screen and you select your car.
This worked on my 2022 F-150 Raptor after nothing else would, including the hazards 3x method. Thanks!
Thank you ☺️
I just recieved my TPMS tool in the mail today and it worked like a charm.
FordTechMakuloco your videos have been essential in troubleshooting my 2009 Escape.
My Escape was manufactured 06/09 and the hazards method does work on mine.
The back left tire has been producing a fault after rotation and appears to be reading at least 2 psi low through ODBII. I ordered the TPMS19 to see if that will set it properly.
as a self-teaching, Learning "Mechanic In Training" I can honestly say your videos have helped me with my Fords and sometimes even transfer the knowledge onto other brands of vehicles that my friends have me service.. I know your strictly a Ford Guru to say the least, but My customer has a 2009 chevy traverse with one TPMS Sensor not reading its the back right one as the Traverse will show TP on the instrument cluster in Information Mode.. it will display it as Rear Right: -- and have the warning check service TPMS.. this car is how i first learned how to reset the Sensors and that theres an exact procedure to ensure it registers as 1..2...3..4.. LF...RF...RR..LR.. But do u know if the air release method would work on a 09 chevy since you said that was about when the F150s started popping up around 09 as well.? tried to borrow the tool from local "o'rielys" where half the people working there are high school afficianados who im pretty sure dont own a car or even know what a car is.. but this one kid started looking on this laminated piece of paper after i asked if they loaned the relearn tool, and he only looked at one side of the paper and told me no and im not even sure if he knew what the tool was tbh. thanks
I have one sensor that is not responding knowing that it is working. What is the solution?
Thank you, the detailed run through of the training mode button combination was exactly what I needed!
Great video. I have to watch it twice a year when I swap winter tires in and out. I can newer remember the key and brake pedal sequences
Here in New York, four aftermarket sensors installed and configured will set you back $850 at an independent garage and $2700 at the dealer. Better learn to do it yourself!
Love the teacher easy to fallowing the instructions step by step easy
Thank you. Easy and well explained. Thanks for the step by step instructions.
Reset TPMS on my 2022 Ford Maverick to a lower psi. Thanks for the spot-on info.
Exactly what I needed to know! Thank you so much for this excellent video!!
You are the man! You’re videos have saved me a lot of money. Thanks for all the info 👍🏽
Thank you for your videos I've learned a lot about the maintenance on my ford and am happy I found them
Awesome thanks, i ordered that little tool a few days ago and now i know how to use it once it arrives.
Great video. Thanks for taking time
I have a 2010 Fusion. I bought this training tool and did the training. The "tire sensor fault" came back on. Should I try letting air out of the tires or is it something else? You give us great information with your videos and save us "lots" of money. Keep up the great work.
Do you remember what it ended up being? I have a 2010 fusion as well and just started getting the fault this week. I don't have any chargers or anything plugged in so I don't think it's RF frequency interruptions
@@stevenr7272did you get an answer? Lol
Thanks - worked on my Ford 2011 SuperDuty. I rotated the tires mid-summer and the light just came on a few weeks ago.
Hey bud, wish I found your video's back when I worked at the Ford dealer. great video once again
I've got an 09' Escape, I bought pre-programmed sensors but everyone in the reviews section say to buy that relearning tool. So I did. Thought I would just go out & try to see if I can get any of the tires to honk while in learning mode but nothing. Now Amazon doesn't show this tool I just bought. Think it was a tad cheaper but looks identical to the one in this video & says it's for my 09' Ford Escape. I just want that TMPS light & warning alert to go away. Gonna have the new sensors installed tomorrow for $125
Thanks so much for your video, I have ford ranger 2009 which often turn on the tires light on the when I drive long on highway, I just followed your to reset them. Hope they wont turn on again when I drive long way
Thank you Brian ! I Just changed over to my summer tires, and this worked like a charm !
Even if your ford has the deflation feature, the remote makes tire rotations faster and easier by far. I spent about $40, and I don’t have buyers remorse ☺️
Thanks for that awesome info Loco
I had this problem on my 08 Explorer forever back window popping open also
I now have an 05 expedition which is giving me the same two problems 😕
I’m going to order the old-style sensor and see if I can figure the tire problem out
Does the air release method work when installing a brand new TPMS sensor? I have a 2013 Ford focus
He didn't know the answer? This guy doesn't seem to know the answer to most questions.
Outstanding video! Thanks for showing both ways to train them.
Thank you! Great video! Worked perfect for my 2017 Transit 250!
Helped me today! Thanks Makuloco!!!!
love your channel...is that an xmaxx back there? LOL
Great video! My 2011 Ranger was in the body shop and a wheel/tire was replaced but they couldn't get it working. FTM & Amazon to the rescue! All is well again!
Hi sir ! I have a 2010 Ford ranger. I replaced all tpms sensor (new) and i have the same tools like you. The horn not beep when i take the procedure...On yours, the procedure works ? Thank you
I have a 2012 f350 also a 2014 f350 and I hate whenever I rotate tires the light comes on. Will this tool help me relearn sensor locations so the light will go off.
Top man. Thanks for showing us.
good info on TPMS. Are you still fixing Fords across the country or retired for the winter?
If your Ford vehicle has push button start how do you get it into train mode?
Worked on a 2012 f150 Ecoboost FX4
Today I had to train my wheel sensors on a 2010 Ford Expedition, drove around for 3 or 4 minutes at 25-30 mph.
Stopped, put. Vehicle in park, turned the ignition switch on , pushed the flasher button 3 times within about 10 sec., repeated same procedure second time & screen said “ train your driver side front tire. Let air out for about 10 sec. & horn sounded one time. Screen said to train right front tire, ditto for the remaining back tires. Replaced the air in all four tires and light is out., no problems.
Another great how to video. Thanks! I have had vehicles that use the
"let air out of tire method" and they are a pain!
1. Can you show the method of putting the car in program mode when you have a Ford push button start vehicle?
I encourage everyone to buy that tool, it makes the job easy. This really helps when you have 3 vehicles and you are rotating tires or putting your winter tires on.
Thanks again,
Vin
+Vinceand Theresa On the push button systems it is the same procedure just with the push button instead.
Great thanks. I thought I read somewhere about pushing the hazard button 6 times. Thanks again for posting.
Just to let you know - 2011 Lincoln MKS - push button start - the above procedure would not put the tpms module into "learn" mode. Pressing the hazard button 3 times (with ignition on) chirped the horn and got "Train Left Front Tire" to show up in the message center.
I have the factory service manual for this car, and it says go from OFF to RUN on the ignition switch 3 times. Problem is - with a push button start, what is RUN? If you just tap the start button, it goes into Accessory mode. You have to press and hold the start button for at least 1 second to get it into "ignition on" mode. In the end, it didn't matter. I tried it both ways and neither would put the tpms module into "learn" mode.
I changed a couple of rims and have had "Tire Pressure Sensor Fault" since then. The guy at the tire shop seemed mystified by the procedure for the push button start and said I would probably have to take it to the dealer. I just ordered the TPMS19 so that I can hopefully program them myself. Just wanted to make sure that I could get the car into learn mode before committing to buy it.
By the way, I'm a Ford guy and I really appreciate your videos - Thanks!
Just to expand on this more - got my TPMS19 today. When using the hazard button method, it would NOT program the new sensors. I'm not sure what I was doing wrong the first time, but this time I was able to get the car into "learn" mode by using the start button. You just have to make sure that you are putting the car into "ignition on" mode rather than "accessory" mode. That means you have to PRESS AND HOLD the start button (foot off brake) until power comes on rather that just quickly tapping the button on and off 3 times. Hope this little tidbit is able to help somebody.
I have an 08 F 150. I need new sensors. What kind do I need?
Excellent video. Question. I have a 2014 and I just purchased a used genuine set of wheels from a 2015 F150 with tpms. They were on my friends F150 but How do I get them programmed on my 2014 as it’s the previous generation ? I hope it’s compatible.
Awesome stuff, worked great thank you for the video!
I want to start by saying thank you for making our life much easier with the videos you post. I want to ask you, will this also work on 2008 F-150 Lariat crewcab?
Yes
Great information Brian.
would love to see a video training tpms on vehicles with push button start
+darnoldie Same procedure just with your finger instead of the key.
Hold the button until it chimes don't just push it on and off.
Thank you!!
@@darnoldie you're very welcome.
Te mando un besote en el mero * desde México, gracias a tu video pude apagar el testigo de mi camioneta! ❤
worked perfectly on my 2012 F 350, Thanks!
Your video saved me a lot of money. Ford in South Africa is really out to get the people - they dont help at all if you dont pay the a lot of money....
Hello, great video. I have a 2013 Ford Edge SEL. Yesterday I just turn the engine on to drive and the error of 'faulty sensor' appeared. I don't know if this happens a lot or not in this SUV model. I will try your 'let the air out' procedure before buying the sensor training tool. Thanks a lot for your video.
Thank you
Would this work for 2009 escape?
Yes
+FordTechMakuloco Thanks. I clicked on the your Amazon link and it says "It does not fit on 2009 Escape" Am I reading it correctly?
Yes it does work. I bought the training tool and the magnet from his links, both have worked for me. I have a 2009 Escape as well.
Magic work for ford expedition 07, thanks bro
Another informative video!
The push button models are a PITA
Excellent stuff
Great video, thank you. My question is: I’ve got a 2017 F250. I just want to get rid of the dash tire low warning light (I trained the tpms already, that’s how I know what tire was low). I had a low tire and I put air into it but the light remained on. Thanks for your videos.
Nicely done video and I'm going to get the TPMS transmitter for 2011 F150 XLT. Haven't tried the remove-air method yet. Happy New Year, FTM.
When should you train the tpms? When the tires are cold or after you finished driving on them?
FordTechMaculoco I have a 2011 Ford Expedition e l. Does it have the capability of telling me what the individual tire pressures are? The diagnostic engineering menu does not show individual tire pressures. Are the tpms sensors actually a sensor that can read varying pressures? Or are they switches that can only tell above or below a certain pressure limit? Seems stupid you can't read individual tire pressure or even which tire is low.
For an 05' Explorer with Metal valve stems can you use this tool or do you need a magnet type tool? How exactly would you use a magnet tool? I've tried letting the air out before, but that did nothing. It has the "tire pressure sensor fault" showing up on the display as well.
Thanks for another great video!
+Chris Rippy You just place the magnet over the valve stem and the sensor will activate and send the signal to the module. Here is the magnet to use- www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002YKFEKK/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B002YKFEKK&linkCode=as2&tag=fordt-20&linkId=QT7PHMGQBO6AJAF6
+FordTechMakuloco Thank You!!
+FordTechMakuloco hi , just in case , the latest tpms that we used to program with the magnet some of them now need to be activated with the one button reset tool as well , this is with the ford genuine ones, I have 10 years working on ford dealers and this was a headache the first time since we always use the magnet tool for the steel stem ones
Just purchased some tires and rims together from a 2015 Ford f-150. I have a 2014 ford F-150 do I need to change the tpms in the 2015 tires for my truck? Great video and good information
Worked for my 07 Explorer thanks.
Bought brand new tires, rims and tpms from Ford after a guy wanted different rims and tires on new truck. Bought the tool from Ford ran the procedure and cannot the tpms to respond. These tires had 3 mi on them and they were from a new F 150 and mine is a 2016 F 150. Now I have to go to Ford.
Brain Always Awesome!! Great Video! Thanks. Sure wised you plan to Fix Fords Across America (In Hawaii!!)
+Hawaiian F150 That would be nice.
+FordTechMakuloco Just Realized I misspelled your name. Sorry Brian! My son's name is Brian and he gets equal renaming ;) Or, here is a excuse... "Ahhh Gee, I did it on purpose because you're a Brain Wizard when it comes to Fords!! ;)) "sorry brother!!,rick
It worked for me pretty well,Thanks budy😃
