Most mechanics today rely highly on the tire pressure monitors to help
diagnose broken down vehicles. Tire Pressure Monitor Systems or TPMS, are tools
that will allow a person to maintain, repair and diagnose the tire inflation and
pressure found in most vehicles on the road today. With direct tire pressure
systems, you can transfer data from rotating wheels, view the active and
inactive sensors and even reset the whole system.
Many manufacturers like OTC and K-Tool offer different TPMS tools for the
everyday person or mechanic to use. The OTC3870TPR comes with a Smart Cable
which allows you to view inactive and active trouble codes that are on your
vehicle, especially with those related to the pressure monitor. This high end
tool can even reprogram the size of the tires on supported applications.
If you are looking for a more economic option, we offer the KTI Tire
Inflation Positioning Sensor Tool Master Kit KTI71999. This comes with a quick
reference guide for sensor learning procedures and reset procedures. With a tire
pressure monitor system in place, you can feel confident with your car or truck
being safe while on the road.
Along with the TPMS tools we offer, magnets and different digital pressure
gauges are also available upon purchase. There is also the Autodata 09200 which
gives detailed information enabling workshops to carry out repair and
replacement of tires and wheels on vehicles equipped with a TPMS.
