Step-by-Step Learning Method

Step 1: Generate New Sensor IDs

1) Open Key Tool Max Pro and select TPMS.

2) Choose the correct vehicle model and year.

3) Select "Program" → "Automatic Creation".

4) Hold the tool near the sensor and confirm that it generates random IDs.

Note: Key Tool Max Pro can program multiple sensors at once.

Step 3: Enter Vehicle Learning Mode

1) Turn off the ignition.

2) Press and hold the brake for 1 second, then release.

3) Turn on the ignition.

4) Repeat this sequence three times.

5) Switch to the next loop:

- Press and release the brake for 1 second.

- Turn off the ignition, then turn it on.

- Repeat three times.

6) Confirmation: A horn beep and dashboard message (e.g., "Calibrate Left Front Wheel") indicate successful entry into learning mode.

Step 4: Activate & Sync Sensors

1) Place the Key Tool Max Pro near the first tire (Left Front).

2) Tap "Activate" to upload sensor data to the vehicle.

3) Repeat for Right Front, Right Rear, and Left Rear in order.

4) Successful activation is confirmed by a vehicle beep and dashboard update.

5) Once all four sensors are activated, the dashboard will display "Learning Complete."

Important Notes

✅ Time-sensitive steps: Delays may cause failure.

✅ Clear the area: Remove other TPMS sensors within 10 meters to avoid interference.

✅ Post-activation sync: Some vehicles require driving to finalize sensor data.


Alternative Method: Copying (Easier & Faster)

If the original sensor ID is known or the vehicle supports OBD communication, use the Copying Method instead. Details please check:
