Guys, on the 2015+ trucks, what is needed for the truck to recognize new sensors? I just put a set of Raptor takeoffs on mine and my light is on. Thanks!

 

I think you just have to drive it a bit, maybe 20 miles or so?

Mine reset automatically after a short time when I go from snow tires to summers and back (mounted on their own wheels with different tpms sensors).

 

I purchased a set of 18" take offs from a 2018 F150 and put them on my 2019 F150 to replace my 20" tires and wheels. The sync up tends to come and go for no apparent reason. Right now it is reading all of the sensors with the exception of the front passenger side tire.

 

I did the swap myself, and needed nothing. It was working after a few miles…
are your sensors from the previous gen or 2015+ ?

 

Guys,

Thanks for all the feedback. These are from a 2015+ I'll add a picture below. A couple items to note:

1. The original wheels tires are in my garage about 20 ft away from where I park. Somehow it still picks up the signal in the morning for those tires, but once I drive to work it give me an error about halfway there saying that there is a TPMS error.
2. My commute is a little over 30 min, and I have not had the error message leave on the way home.

I'm starting to wonder if the rims/tires i purchased do not have TPMS sensors on them?

 

 

My truck also recognized the sensors in my take off wheels. Took about 3 miles of driving for them to acquire the signal.

 

There is a re-training tool, but I'm not even sure it works on the 2015+ models as I've never had to use it.

Strange that yours doesn't re-learn on the drive home. Are you sure they new tires/wheels have the sensors (as you mentioned)?

Great looking rig by the way!

 

quite possible, tweak the valve stem a FW times and let it go. If it has the sensor you should be able to hear it pinging against the inside of the rim .

 

There's a procedure in the manual, but it's a bit of a pain because it involves letting air out of all four tires and thus needing to air back up; you can avoid letting the air out by using the retraining tool mentioned (required for previous gen trucks, I think). The sensors need to be woken from sleep mode first, which takes a bit of driving (in my experience, a bit more than the manual says).

With that said, you shouldn't need to do either, as best I can tell. My truck detected the sensors in my snow tires without any action other than swapping the wheels, and it picked the summer tires back up when I switched back.
