Ranger Mods

Hi,

I’m sure this has been ask before but my browsing has not been successful in finding an answer.

I have an XLT PX2 2015. I recently removed the wheels and replaced with a set of FX4 rims. The FX4 wheels had existing (not the original supplied with my ute) TPM sensors installed.

On the first trip after changing I had the alarm on the dash for a tyre pressure fault which would be expected. I acknowledged and then reset this through the menu. I have not had any further alarms come up.

My questions are:

does this mean the Tyre Pressure Management Sytem has picked up the new sensors or system is probably not working?

If I deflated one to see if an alarm is generated would it have to be driven to check?

What pressure activates a low pressure alarm from factory?

Thanks in advance

Mick

Doubtful it has picked them up as BCM is not set to self learn but either let down a tyre within 10 minutes of stopping or swap one with your spare then go for a 10km drive and see if you get the error.

If you pump them up, say put 6 PSI in just after you stop, with the ignition on you should see the pressures increase if you are monitoring tyre pressures with a 3rd party tool.

Factory default for low alarm is usually 30 PSI but I have seen them at 28 and 32 also.

Worst case you buy a sensor training tool from the store and train the new sensors in.

Thanks for the advice.
Will grab the training tool also

Greatly appreciate your help mate

Got the training tool today (which arrived overnight thanks).

Works a treat thanks again for your help
