Hi
I am new to this forum and I love the 3.2 engine. :D
Started with a BT50 and now upgraded to a 2017 Wildtrack.
I recently bought a set on new 2018 Wildtrack wheels and tyres. Once fitted I am now getting TPMS fail alarms on the dash.
I now want to enable the TPMS to fix this problem.
I have Forscan on my phone and a bluetooth dongle working. I need to find the codes to enable TPMS. :?:
Thanks in advance.
Phil

Do the wheels have monitors fitted?

If yes I would say they have to be retrained so read this viewtopic.php?f=25&t=298

You will need a TMPS training tool which is available here wp/product/tpms-sensor-training-tool/

Hi Ross

Bought the training tool from this site and went through stop start etc dance. I got the honk and train Front left tyre but did not get the conformation honk after using the tool . The led on the tool works.
Thinking I might fit the old front left and try to train that tyre.

I don't believe the new wheels have the TPMS sensors in them. You will need to buy the sensors from Ford, have them installed in the wheels then follow the training procedure as set out in the instructions I sent.

Sensors should be awake while trying this so drive for a few minutes and retry.

Its possible whomever you bought the wheels from had the sensors removed to suit the wheels they upgraded too.

Hi
I got my old sensors fitted to the new rims. The old sensors have a square symbol on them.
The sensors on the newer wildtrack have a triangle symbol on them. :?:
All the old sensors now sync OK. :)
Thanks for your help.
