5.1 Activating TPMS Sensors

To activate a TPMS sensor:

Select the "TPMS" function from the main menu.
Choose "Activate Sensors".
Follow the on-screen prompts to select the vehicle make, model, and year.
Position the tool near each tire's valve stem and press the trigger button to activate the sensor. The tool will display sensor ID, tire pressure, temperature, and battery status.

5.2 Programming MX-Sensors

The TS508WF can program Autel MX-Sensors to replace faulty or missing sensors. Two programming methods are available:

Kopi yakaitwa naOBD: This method retrieves the sensor IDs from the vehicle's ECU via the OBDII port and writes them directly to the new MX-Sensor. This is ideal when the original sensor is no longer functional.
Auto Create 1-16: This method generates new, unique sensor IDs for up to 16 MX-Sensors. This is useful when original sensor IDs are unavailable.

To program a sensor:

Select "Program Sensor" from the TPMS menu.
Choose the desired programming method (Copy by OBD or Auto Create 1-16).
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the programming. Ensure the MX-Sensor is within 4 inches of the tool during programming.

5.3 Relearning TPMS Sensors

After replacing sensors or rotating tires, the vehicle's ECU needs to learn the new sensor IDs. The TS508WF supports three relearn procedures:

Kudzidzazve otomatiki: The vehicle automatically learns new sensor IDs by driving under specific conditions.
Kudzidzazve Zvisingachinji: Requires the vehicle to be placed in a "Learn Mode" (often initiated via the vehicle's dashboard controls) and sensors activated in a specific order.
Kudzidzazve kweOBD: The tool writes new sensor IDs directly to the vehicle's TPMS module via the OBDII connector. This is often the fastest method.

To perform a relearn:

Select "Position Relearn" from the TPMS menu.
Follow the on-screen instructions, which will guide you through the appropriate relearn procedure for the selected vehicle.

5.4 TPMS System Diagnosis

The TS508WF can diagnose issues within the TPMS system:

Connect the main cable to the vehicle's OBDII port and the TS508WF.
Select "TPMS Diagnose" from the menu.
The tool will read TPMS DTCs (Diagnostic Trouble Codes) and display detailed information about the system's health, including sensor IDs, tire pressure, temperature, and battery condition.
If DTCs are present, you can choose to clear them after addressing the underlying issue.
