 The i-TPMS is a new generation of TPMS tools from LAUNCH. Unlike the TSGUN tool which needs to be paired with the X431 diagnostic instrument to work, the i-TPMS has a dedicated mobile APP that can be used independently. This article will introduce how to connect the LAUNCH i-TPMS to the mobile APP. 1. Open your phone and download the i-TPMS APP from the QR code on the back of the i-TPMS tool (or scan the picture below). After downloading and installing, the i-TPMS APP will appear on your phone. 2. Open the APP and click "Connect Device" to enter the Bluetooth scanning page. The newly installed APP has no data saved at this time. Click "Start Scan" to scan the i-TPMS Bluetooth. 3. Turn on the i-TPMS power and confirm that the Bluetooth function is turned on. Remember the SN number and Bluetooth number. For example, the serial number in the picture is 987810001028. 4. The scanned Bluetooth devices will be displayed in the i-TPMS APP. Select the c...

LAUNCH i-TPMS sensor activation failed: How to view the sensor ID

Image
 Problem: I’m having trouble programming the sensors using LAUNCH i-TPMS . I used the i-TPMS Android app, selected Toyota sienna, and the year was correct. Then I selected the program manual and entered the id 12345678. The LAUNCH i-TPMS said it was programming, and while waiting I got an error: Activation failed. Solution: The ID number you mentioned is too random, and it should not be the original vehicle ID. There are two options when entering the ID number: 1. Automatic creation Select automatic creation, and the device will automatically add the ID. 2. Manual creation You need to obtain the original vehicle ID and fill it in manually. Note : Generally speaking, for a tire pressure sensor , the OE number is used to locate the vehicle model, and the ID number is an important parameter for the sensor to communicate with the vehicle. These numbers are sometimes written on the front and sometimes on the side. Neither [CMIT ID] nor [FCC ID] is the sensor ID. Example...

How to Program Sensors with Launch i-TPMS Handheld Tool?

Image
 In this post, we'll show how to do automatic programming and manual programming sensors with Launch i-TPMS Handheld Tool . So that we can encode the Launch LTR Sensor and replace the damaged sensor. Automatic Programming Programming >> Auto >> Programming During the process, we'll have to put the Launch sensor besides the i-TPMS Tool as close as possible. (In order to make the sensor adapted to the car system, we should continue to the learning part.) Before start learning sensor, connect OBD cable to the car. Learning >> OBD learning Sensor learning succeeded! As seen on the X431 PAD 7 tablet, we've successfully cleared the DTC. The whole automatic programming process is completed. Manual Programming Before starting, we have to find the OE sensor ID which is written on sensor. Programming >> Manual >> Type in OE sensor ID >> Programming During the programming process, we'll have to put the Launch sensor b...

What's the difference between Launch i-TPMS and TSGUN TPMS tool?

Image
 The latest Launch X431 i-TPMS in 2024 can program the LAUNCH LTR RF sensor unlimited times to replace the OE sensor. So what is the difference between i-TPMS and the old TSGUN product? To be honest, functionally it is the same. But TSGUN must be combined with Launch X431 scanners to perform TPMS function. The device itself is not working. But i-TPMS will combine with Launch X431 scanners. It also works standalone via i-TPMS app. TSGUN is positioned as an accessory for the LAUNCH X431 diagnostic tool , while i-TPMS is more like an independent TPMS tool. Scan QR code here to download i-TPMS App for Android ONLY For Android system smartphone user, scan the following QR code or the QR code on the back of the i-TPMS device to download and install the i-TPMS app on the phone.
