NOTICE

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules
and with RSS-210 of Industry Canada. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions:

(1) This device will not cause harmful interference
(2) This device must accept any interference

received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.

Any changes or modications in construction
of this device which are not expressly
approved by the party responsible for

to operate the equipment.

8. TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

PROBLEM: TPMS light remains on after installation

of new sensors.

SOLUTION: May require over-inating tire and then

reducing PSI to proper level to activate sensor(s).

Spare tire may be equipped with TPMS. Check
vehicle owner’s manual to verify if TPMS monitors
spare tire. If so, ensure proper air pressure and
functioning sensor in spare tire.

PROBLEM: Newly written ID number on Clone-able

sensor or QWIK-SENSOR
number after using “COPY ID”.

SOLUTION: Check your format in settings. Change

to appropriate format. Hexadecimal reads ID number
in alphanumeric format (numbers and letters) while
decimal format reads ID number in only numeric
format (numbers only). Try writing the sensor
manually or go through the auto relearn process.

PROBLEM: After scanning sensor, “NO SENSOR

DETECTED” appears on screen.

SOLUTION: Try re-positioning the T55003 tool.

Ensure correct sensor is being used via the “TPMS
Application & Cross Reference Guide” and matches
the OE part number of the sensor on the vehicle.
Ensure the vehicle being worked on is at least 10
feet from all other vehicles and TPMS sensors (OE,
Clone-able, or QWIK-SENSOR
near the valve stem between the rim and rubber.

PROBLEM: TPMS lamp is illuminated in vehicle after

removing damaged OE sensors.

SOLUTION: Remove uninstalled OE sensors from the

area as damaged sensors will continue to transmit signal.
