TPMS sensors

nvestr · 10-11-2019, 10:00 AM

Hi all,

I ordered a set of new OEM sensors on eBay. I plan on installing them on the rims prior to having the tires mounted. Anything special that needs to be done to them prior to tire mount, inflation? I.e. there's no tab to pull to engage the batteries or anything.

Also, I assume these sensors are similar to Mercedes where they auto-learn to the vehicle without needing to be programmed? Vehicle will automatically detect them and know where they are on the vehicle?

Thanks!

It came to around $155 Canadian shipped. eBay seller from Slovakia. I can find the exact link if you want? They are OEM TPMS, not aftermarket.

I have an extra set that I bought for me. I don't need them. I can sell them at $25 each. Picture is from eBay.
