Tpms

[choppy101]

Hi,

New tpms sensor fitted but needs programming to bcm, anyone help out in the north east area,

[Drew]

Is it the sensor in the wheel you have replaced?

[exclusiv.]

Do they need programming ? sure they self learn after a few miles....replaced one in my daughters clio few months ago,it self learned,no more tpms light

That's what I learnt on here, so long as they are compatible or oem you just drive until they recognise them.

They only learn if original equipment, it requires coding to bcm, I have a opcom but it is unable to do it

yeah, the sensor in the wheel

What kind of sensor did you buy? And you don't need to code the bcm.

Only need to program the bcm if you don't have tpms in the first place

Can you fit any sensors to the wheels or do they need to be vauxhall ones

[ilunn]

if you get genuine Vauxhall sensors they will self pair and work within short drive, If you get aftermarket (universal) ones they need to be cloned from original, the tool I got to test mine will also clone universal ones but I have not needed to use it as yet. Also when purchasing universal make sure they are the correct frequency for your system.

Ok thanks

Spend £40 and remove them from your atomics at a tyre place.

If you don't, you'll be looking at £160+ for VX ones, then the clone program.

I know what I would do.
