TPMS Explained

Understanding how Tyre Pressure Monitoring Systems work
8 Questions
1 What is a TPMS sensor and why does my car need one?

A Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) warns the driver when tyre pressure falls below the system’s warning threshold. A direct system uses pressure sensors at the wheels, usually inside the tyre, to send readings wirelessly to a vehicle receiver. Some systems also report temperature.

The warning threshold and information displayed depend on the vehicle; they are not identical for every model. TPMS supports tyre safety, but it does not replace regular checks with an accurate pressure gauge or inspection for damage. Follow the tyre placard and vehicle owner’s manual.

Need more help?Contact our team
2 What is the difference between direct TPMS and indirect TPMS?

Direct TPMS measures pressure using sensors at the wheels and sends data to a receiver. Sensors can be internal or external, depending on the system. Whether the dashboard shows each tyre’s pressure depends on the vehicle.

Indirect TPMS uses wheel-speed and other vehicle signals to infer changes associated with pressure loss rather than measuring pressure using a separate sensor in each tyre. It may require a reset or calibration after pressures are corrected or tyres are changed.

A replacement direct-TPMS sensor is not a replacement part for an indirect system. Check which system your vehicle uses before ordering; indirect TPMS is not restricted to older or lower-specification vehicles.

Need more help?Contact our team
3 Why is my TPMS warning light on even though my tyres look fine?

Check the tyre pressures with a gauge first. A tyre can look normal while under-inflated. Inflate cold tyres to the vehicle placard specification and check for leaks or damage. Do not continue driving on a visibly damaged or dangerously under-inflated tyre.

Other possible causes of a persistent warning include:

  • A sensor battery or electronic fault
  • A sensor or valve damaged during tyre service
  • The wrong sensor protocol or an incomplete programming/relearn procedure
  • A required system reset after pressure adjustment or wheel changes
  • A receiver, communication or other vehicle-system fault.

Temperature changes can also affect pressure. Follow the owner’s manual for the meaning of a flashing or steady warning. Once pressures are safe, a technician can read the sensors and check the system. Contact 1300 818 030 for support.

Need more help?Contact our team
4 What does the TPMS relearn procedure mean and why is it needed?

A sensor has an electronic identifier (sensor ID). This is different from its radio frequency. A vehicle relearn registers the sensors with the vehicle’s TPMS. Some systems also learn or assign wheel positions; not all vehicles use the same method.

Programming a programmable replacement sensor configures that sensor for the correct vehicle protocol and ID. Relearning or registering it with the vehicle is a separate task. Depending on the application, the vehicle may use an automatic drive cycle, a stationary procedure, an OBD registration or compatible cloned IDs.

Do not assume a sensor marked “programmed” will automatically pair with every vehicle. Follow the vehicle-specific instructions in our TPMS Relearn Guide, or ask us to confirm the procedure.

Need more help?Contact our team
5 What is sensor cloning and when is it needed?

Cloning writes an existing sensor’s ID into a compatible programmable replacement configured for the correct vehicle protocol. On supported vehicles, this can let the replacement use an ID the vehicle already recognises and may avoid new-ID registration.

Cloning is not proof that the vehicle permanently rejects all new IDs. The correct approach depends on the vehicle, market specification and tools available. A sensor that no longer transmits cannot simply be read wirelessly; we may need its printed ID, a previous record or information obtained from the vehicle using supported equipment.

Cloning does not eliminate the physical fitting of an internal sensor. Have that work completed with appropriate tyre-service equipment, and follow the vehicle-specific checks afterwards. Contact us about a suitable cloning kit before ordering.

Need more help?Contact our team
6 How long do TPMS sensor batteries last?

Many internal TPMS sensors use a sealed, non-replaceable battery intended to last several years. Actual service life depends on the sensor design, use, temperature and transmission behaviour; an estimated lifespan is not a guarantee that every sensor will last the same number of years.

When a sealed internal sensor battery is exhausted, the sensor normally needs replacement. Do not open or attempt to re-battery a sealed sensor. Some external aftermarket systems use replaceable batteries—follow the instructions for that specific product.

Normal battery depletion is different from premature failure or a manufacturing fault. See the product’s stated coverage and our Lifetime Warranty page; applicable consumer rights continue to apply.

Need more help?Contact our team
7 Can I legally remove or bypass my TPMS system?

We recommend diagnosing and repairing a TPMS fault rather than disabling the warning or bypassing the system. First confirm that the tyres are correctly inflated and safe.

Roadworthiness and modification requirements depend on the vehicle, its approval requirements and the state or territory where it is used. This FAQ is not a determination that removal is lawful or unlawful for every vehicle. Consult your vehicle manufacturer, a licensed roadworthiness examiner or your transport authority before modifying a factory safety system.

For a replacement-sensor or diagnostic enquiry, contact us with the vehicle details and fault symptoms.

Need more help?Contact our team
8 Where can I find a relearn guide for my specific vehicle?

Our TPMS Relearn Guide contains instructions for supported vehicle applications across a range of makes, including Toyota, Lexus, Subaru, Nissan, Infiniti, Mazda, Isuzu, European brands and newer market entrants.

Select the exact model, year and market specification where available. The same make can use different TPMS procedures. If your vehicle is not listed, or its behaviour differs from the guide, contact us before trying another model’s procedure.

Products & Compatibility

Choosing the right sensor, tool, or kit for your vehicle
8 Questions
1 What product ranges do you sell?

Our TPMS-related range includes:

  • AUTOMATE replacement sensors—our own-brand aftermarket sensors for supported applications
  • Genuine OE and compatible replacement sensors—check each listing for the actual brand, source description and fitment
  • Autel TPMS sensors—programmable models for supported applications
  • Hamaton U-Pro sensors—programmable models with application-specific coverage
  • Vehicle-specific DIY kits—sensor and tool packages with contents shown on the listing
  • Diagnostic and programming tools—including Bluetooth tools and supported OBD registration options
  • Cloning tools—for copying IDs to compatible programmable sensors
  • Wholesale packs—for approved trade and workshop customers.

Availability and compatibility are product-specific. A sensor described as “compatible” or “OE replacement” should not be assumed to be a vehicle-manufacturer-branded genuine part.

Need more help?Contact our team
2 How do I know which sensor is compatible with my vehicle?

Compatibility can depend on make, model, model year, build date, VIN, market specification and the original sensor part number. Imports and variants can differ. Matching the frequency alone is not enough: the protocol, valve type and required registration method also matter.

Contact us before ordering with the details you have, including an original-sensor photo or part number where available. We will check the information and let you know if more detail is needed before recommending a product.

You can also browse vehicle-specific listings, our Sensor Comparison page and Application Downloads page. These help narrow the choice; they do not replace checking an uncertain application.

Need more help?Contact our team
3 What is the difference between the Automate A01 and A02 diagnostic tools?

The A01 and A02 names in our tool range distinguish the standard TPMS service option from an option that includes supported OBD sensor-ID registration. The exact functions depend on the tool version, app, sensor and vehicle application.

  • A01 / Bluetooth TPMS tool: check the current listing for supported sensor reading, activation, programming and cloning functions.
  • A02 / OBD-enabled option: check the listing for the supplied hardware and vehicles that support reading or writing sensor IDs through the diagnostic port.

An OBD-II socket does not establish TPMS registration compatibility, and an OBD tool does not replace sensor programming. Tell us your vehicle and task so we can confirm the correct tool and procedure before you buy.

Need more help?Contact our team
4 Are AUTOMATE sensors genuine vehicle-brand parts or aftermarket replacements?

AUTOMATE sensors are our own-brand aftermarket replacement products. They are not vehicle-manufacturer-branded genuine sensors. Vehicle names and OE cross-reference numbers identify the applications they are intended to replace; they do not imply manufacturer endorsement.

Check the individual product listing for the sensor specification, supported application and required programming or relearn process. Ask us for any product-specific technical information you need before ordering.

Eligible AUTOMATE sensors carry the voluntary cover described on our Lifetime Warranty page. Any coverage offered when you purchased remains relevant; this FAQ does not withdraw an existing warranty promise.

Need more help?Contact our team
5 Do you stock sensors for Chinese-made vehicles like BYD, Haval, LDV, ZEEKR, and Jaecoo?

We offer sensor and tool options for supported models from brands including BYD, Haval/GWM, LDV/MAXUS, ZEEKR, Chery and Jaecoo. Coverage is specific to the vehicle, market and tool software—not every model from a named brand.

Contact us with your exact make, model, year, VIN and original sensor details where available. We can check whether a suitable option is listed and whether it requires cloning, new-ID registration or another relearn method. Other applications, including INEOS, can also be checked separately.

Need more help?Contact our team
6 Where can I download the application file or firmware for my sensor or tool?

Visit our Application Downloads page for the manuals, companion-app links and application information available for supported tools. For installation and programming videos, use our How-To Videos page or YouTube channel.

Use only the file or app intended for your exact tool model and version. Firmware availability, licence conditions and compatibility updates depend on the product; the FAQ does not promise every update for every third-party tool is free. Contact us when the correct download is unclear.

Need more help?Contact our team
7 Can I compare different sensor options before purchasing?

Yes — we have a dedicated Sensor Comparison page that lets you compare specifications, compatibility, and features across our range. You are also welcome to contact our team directly for a personalised recommendation based on your vehicle and budget.

Need more help?Contact our team
8 Do you sell individual sensors, or do I have to buy a set of four?

We sell individual sensors as well as sets and kits. When one sensor has failed, a compatible individual replacement may be sufficient.

If the sensors are of a similar age and one has failed through battery depletion, it can be useful to test the remaining sensors and compare the cost of one replacement with a full set. Replacing all four is not automatically necessary. We can quote both options after checking the application.

DIY Kits & Installation

Installing and programming TPMS sensors yourself
7 Questions
1 What is a DIY TPMS Master Kit and what does it include?

A DIY TPMS Master Kit combines sensors and compatible tools for a supported vehicle application. It can help you carry out supported programming, cloning or relearn tasks, but it does not remove the need for professional physical fitting of internal sensors.

Typical kits may include:

  • Replacement sensors in the quantity shown on the listing
  • A compatible programmer or cloning tool
  • An OBD tool where specified for that kit
  • The listed valves, fittings and instructions or manual links.

Read the exact kit contents before ordering. Do not assume every kit contains four sensors, every tool or every valve accessory. Internal sensors require the tyre bead to be unseated or the tyre removed using suitable equipment. Arrange that work with a trained tyre fitter.

Need more help?Contact our team
2 Do I need a tyre shop to install TPMS sensors, or can I do it myself?

Use a trained tyre fitter for internal TPMS sensor installation. The sensor sits inside the tyre, so the bead must be unseated or the tyre demounted with appropriate tyre-service equipment. The fitter must follow the relevant valve/sensor instructions, check for leaks, and balance the wheel where required.

You may be able to complete supported programming or cloning tasks with your kit, but that does not make physical tyre fitting a basic-tools job. Ask the fitter for a realistic booking duration; it depends on the wheels, valves, programming and any faults found.

External valve-cap systems are different products and have their own fitting instructions. Confirm your sensor type before starting.

Need more help?Contact our team
3 I have a Toyota, Subaru or Nissan—which kit is right for it?

Start with your exact make, model, year, build date and market specification, rather than choosing only by brand. Share your VIN and original sensor information where available.

  • Toyota/Lexus: a compatible OBD registration or cloning option may be appropriate, depending on the vehicle.
  • Subaru: confirm the required ID registration process for the exact application.
  • Nissan/Infiniti: check the model’s supported relearn or cloning method.
  • LDV/MAXUS, Haval/GWM, Isuzu, INEOS, BYD and Chery: confirm the Australian-market application and tool support before selecting a kit.

We will help you check the required sensor and tools before purchase. A make-specific kit title is not confirmation of coverage for every model from that manufacturer.

Need more help?Contact our team
4 Where can I find a fitting centre or tyre shop near me that can install my sensors?

We maintain a directory of TPMS-experienced fitting centres on our Dealers & Fitting Centres page. You can also contact us and we will suggest a suitable tyre shop near your location that is familiar with TPMS sensor programming. Most tyre shops can physically fit sensors, but not all are experienced with the relearn procedure — we can help you find one that is.

Need more help?Contact our team
5 Do I need to program the sensors before taking them to the tyre shop?

There are two separate tasks: configuring the sensor and registering it with the vehicle. Confirm the sequence for your product and vehicle before fitting.

  • Programmable sensors: where required, configure the correct protocol and sensor ID before installation and check that the sensor responds.
  • Cloned sensors: obtain and check the original IDs before disposing of the old sensors. A dead sensor may require an alternative way to obtain its ID.
  • OBD registration: follow the vehicle procedure for writing the installed sensor IDs to the TPMS module.
  • Automatic relearn: use the prescribed drive cycle only on vehicles confirmed to support it.

Your kit instructions and our TPMS Relearn Guide explain the supported sequence. Pre-programmed does not necessarily mean registered with the vehicle.

Need more help?Contact our team
6 Are your how-to installation videos available online?

Yes — we have an extensive library of step-by-step installation and programming videos available free of charge on our How-To Videos page and on our YouTube channel. Videos cover sensor fitting, cloning tool usage, OBD relearn procedures, and diagnostic tool operation.

Need more help?Contact our team
7 My TPMS light is still on after fitting new sensors — what do I do?

First verify the tyre pressures and check for leaks or damage. A warning after replacement does not by itself prove that the new sensor is faulty or that relearn is the only problem.

Check the sensor application and protocol, programmed IDs, tool settings and the vehicle-specific registration procedure in our TPMS Relearn Guide. Some systems also need the specified drive cycle or wheel-position learning.

If the warning remains, contact us with your order number, vehicle/VIN details, dashboard message, sensor readings and the steps already attempted. We can help investigate and advise whether physical inspection is needed. Do not repeatedly deflate tyres or follow unrelated relearn procedures.

Need more help?Contact our team
3 How does Afterpay work on your store?

Where Afterpay Pay in 4 is offered at checkout and your application is approved, it allows an eligible purchase to be repaid in four instalments, generally over six weeks. Afterpay shows the payment amounts, due dates and terms before you commit.

Eligibility checks, spending limits and possible late fees are set by Afterpay. Do not assume every order is approved, that every customer has the same first-payment date, or that our checkout offers every Afterpay product. Review Afterpay’s Australian Pay in 4 information and the agreement presented for your purchase.

Need more help?Contact our team
4 Is there a discount code available for my order?

Check the current website banner or promotional message for any active offer. When the 10OFF promotion is advertised as active, it offers 10% off eligible products, subject to the terms shown for that promotion.

Enter the code before payment and check that the discount appears in your order total. Do not assume it combines with another offer or applies retrospectively. Contact us before paying if an advertised code does not work. This FAQ does not guarantee that a promotion is always running or withdraw an offer that applied to an existing purchase.

Need more help?Contact our team
5 Can I cancel my order after I have placed it?

Please request a cancellation as soon as possible by calling 1300 818 030 or emailing [email protected] with your order number. We will check whether the order can still be stopped before dispatch or any agreed custom preparation is completed.

Once a parcel has been handed to the carrier, we may be unable to intercept it. An eligible change-of-mind return can then be requested under our 30-day Returns & Refund Policy. A one-hour period is not a cut-off for statutory rights, and cancellation or return rights arising from a fault, misleading description or another legal entitlement remain separate.

Need more help?Contact our team
6 I didn't receive an order confirmation email — what should I do?

Check your spam or junk folder and the email address entered at checkout. If the confirmation is missing after payment, contact [email protected] or 1300 818 030 with your name, order details and payment reference where available.

Shipping & Delivery

Dispatch times, tracking, free shipping, and international orders
7 Questions
1 Do you offer free shipping within Australia?

Yes. Free Express Shipping is available on all Australian domestic orders, with no minimum spend. The delivery charge for this service is $0.

This Australian offer does not establish the charge for an international destination. Check the delivery option and any charge shown for your address before paying. See our Shipping Policy for the full arrangements.

Need more help?Contact our team
2 How long will it take to receive my order?

Estimated Australian delivery: 1–4 days using our free express service. This is a delivery estimate, not a guaranteed arrival date or a separate extra period after dispatch.

The actual arrival date depends on order cut-off times, order preparation and the carrier’s delivery schedule. Public holidays, regional or remote routing, and service disruptions can affect the estimate. Do not assume every calendar day is a dispatch or delivery day.

For a time-sensitive order, contact us before purchasing so we can check the destination and current service. International delivery estimates are separate and depend on the destination and available carrier service; the Australian timeframe does not apply worldwide.

Need more help?Contact our team
3 How do I track my order after it has been dispatched?

Your dispatch or order-update message contains tracking information when it is available. You can also use our Track Your Order page.

A tracking number may be generated when the shipping label is prepared; it does not by itself confirm the carrier has collected the parcel. Tracking updates depend on carrier scans. If the expected handover or delivery update is missing, contact us with your order number and we will check it with the carrier.

Need more help?Contact our team
4 Do you ship internationally?

We offer international delivery to supported destinations. Enter your address at checkout to check available options and any delivery charge. Contact us before payment if no suitable option or delivery estimate is displayed.

International costs and transit times depend on the destination and service. The Australian free-shipping offer and 1–4-day estimate do not automatically apply to overseas orders. We do not promise the same delivery period for every country.

Import duties, destination taxes or customs/carrier charges may apply where they have not been included or collected at checkout. Check what the order summary includes and the destination’s import requirements. For details and assistance, see our Shipping Policy.

Need more help?Contact our team
5 My order hasn't arrived within the expected timeframe — what should I do?

Check the carrier tracking for attempted delivery, collection instructions or a service delay. Then contact [email protected] or 1300 818 030 with your order number if the parcel is overdue, tracking has stopped updating or another problem appears.

We will investigate with the carrier and explain the next steps. You do not need to wait an arbitrary number of days before reporting a concern. Where an order is not supplied as agreed, we will address the available remedy in accordance with your purchase and applicable consumer rights; a carrier investigation does not remove those rights.

Need more help?Contact our team
6 Do you offer in-store pickup from your Springvale warehouse?

Yes. Collection can be arranged from Unit 5–6, 44–50 Westall Road, Springvale VIC 3171, Australia. Contact us first to confirm that the goods are available and your collection is ready.

Usual collection enquiries are handled Monday to Friday, 9 am–5 pm Melbourne local time. Call 1300 818 030 or email [email protected]. Confirm any collection outside those hours directly; do not assume a workshop appointment means an order is ready to collect.

Need more help?Contact our team
7 My parcel arrived damaged — what are my options?

Please contact [email protected] as soon as reasonably possible with your order number and a description of the damage. Photos of the product and packaging are helpful where safe and available. Retain the packaging when practicable, but do not use an unsafe or damaged product.

We will assess the issue and arrange the appropriate remedy and any return instructions. A 48-hour reporting request is not a deadline that removes your Australian Consumer Law rights. You do not need original packaging to request a remedy for a faulty product. See our Returns & Refund Policy.

Need more help?Contact our team

Warranty & Returns

Lifetime warranty coverage, returns process, and your ACL rights
7 Questions
1 Do your TPMS sensors come with a warranty?

Yes. Eligible AUTOMATE sensors carry our voluntary Lifetime Warranty against manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship, subject to the product’s stated terms. This is not a promise of unlimited battery life or cover for every cause of damage.

Tools, third-party products and different components of a kit may have different warranty terms. Check the product listing and our Lifetime Warranty page, or ask us to confirm coverage before buying. This FAQ does not replace more favourable promises made with an existing purchase.

Applicable Australian Consumer Law guarantees operate separately from a voluntary warranty and cannot be excluded by it.

Need more help?Contact our team
2 What is NOT covered by your warranty?

The voluntary sensor warranty does not generally cover normal wear or faults caused by:

  • Physical damage during tyre fitting, removal or other handling
  • Normal end-of-life battery depletion
  • Incorrect installation or use outside the supported application
  • Chemical exposure or unsuitable tyre sealants that damage the sensor
  • Disassembly, modification or incompatible programming that causes the fault.

A premature battery failure, unrelated defect or incorrect fitment advice may still require assessment. A third-party installer or tool is not by itself a reason to dismiss every claim. See the applicable product terms and our Lifetime Warranty page; these voluntary exclusions do not remove statutory rights.

Need more help?Contact our team
3 How do I make a warranty claim?

Contact [email protected] or 1300 818 030 with your order number or other proof of purchase, the product and vehicle details, and a description of the problem. Photos, readings or a video can help where available.

We will assess the claim and explain any diagnostic, inspection and remedy steps. Please ask for an RMA/reference and return instructions so the item can be identified correctly. This administrative process does not remove a statutory right to a remedy because an RMA, original box or particular kind of evidence is unavailable.

Need more help?Contact our team
4 Can I return a product if it is not compatible with my vehicle?

Incorrect description or advice: if the sensor does not match our listing, or is unsuitable for a purpose you reasonably relied on us to confirm, contact us for assessment and the remedy available under Australian Consumer Law. You do not have to obtain separate written confirmation before every purchase to retain those rights.

Change of mind or your own selection error: our Australian policy provides a 30-day return window from delivery for eligible products. Please contact us within that period. Products must meet the original, unused and unopened condition requirements in our Returns & Refund Policy, and you arrange and pay for change-of-mind return postage.

Check the stated eligibility conditions before programming or fitting a sensor. The change-of-mind conditions and 30-day period do not limit remedies for faults, inaccurate descriptions or incorrect advice.

Need more help?Contact our team
5 How long does a refund take to arrive in my account?

There are two stages: our processing of an approved refund, and the time your bank or payment provider takes to make it visible in your account. We will confirm when the refund is issued and provide the available reference.

Refunds are normally made using the original payment method unless another lawful arrangement is agreed. Bank and provider processing times vary; contact us and your provider if a refund has not appeared within the estimate given with your refund confirmation.

See our Returns & Refund Policy for the applicable refund-processing commitment. This FAQ does not add a new waiting period before you can report a missing refund.

Need more help?Contact our team
6 What are my rights under Australian Consumer Law?

Where the Australian Consumer Law (ACL) applies, products must meet consumer guarantees including acceptable quality, matching their description and fitness for a purpose covered by the guarantees. These rights are separate from a store’s voluntary returns or warranty conditions.

  • Major product failure: you can generally reject the goods and choose a refund or replacement, or keep them and seek compensation for reduced value.
  • Minor failure: the supplier has an opportunity to fix it within a reasonable time; further remedies can apply when it does not.

Contact us first for assistance with your purchase. Independent information is available from the ACCC and Consumer Affairs Victoria. The ACCC accepts reports and provides guidance but does not resolve individual disputes.

Need more help?Contact our team
7 Do I need to return the old sensor to claim a warranty replacement?

We may need the sensor returned for inspection. Contact us for a reference and safe return instructions before sending it, so that we can identify the claim and discuss any removal or postage arrangements.

For confirmed manufacturing-defect claims we cover return postage. Where we confirm a product problem covered by consumer guarantees, we reimburse reasonable return costs you have already paid; keep your postage receipt. These arrangements are separate from customer-paid change-of-mind returns.

A missing RMA or original package does not automatically extinguish your statutory rights.

5 Where can I find listed fitting centres or enquire about becoming one?

Our Dealers & Fitting Centres page lists workshops and fitting contacts. Confirm the individual business’s current services, availability and vehicle/tool coverage before booking.

A directory listing does not by itself mean a workshop is authorised by a vehicle manufacturer or certified to perform every TPMS procedure. Workshops interested in a supply or listing relationship can contact [email protected] or use our Contact Us page.
