Since 2007, tire pressure monitoring (TPMS) systems are required on all vehicles in the US. Dave Scaler from MEA brings you completely up to date on these systems. In this class he gives you the latest information on the changes that have been made, new techniques and answers tough questions that techs have with these systems.

He explains why you should NEVER use chrome or metal custom valve caps, what happens if you do and provides tips on valve core extraction. Dave covers tire pressures and gives tips on how to figure cold and hot inflation pressures. He explains the discrepancies between tire gauges and dash display and how to avoid comebacks. Dave gives you new information on Toyota sensors, who is bringing indirect TPMS back, and information on Ford truck band sensors. This course is loaded with tips on replacing valve stems and covers new sensor torques and seal kit. Dave explains how to “wake up” sensors and get them to auto learn after they are shipped in storage mode and provides a new “air wake up” technique.
