Questions & Answers

What if I have to replace the sensors on my 2005 Chrysler Crossfire?

The unit might not have been used on that exact vehicle, but I operate a high volume service center, and with the possible exception of a Porsche that we had, this unit has done all the work we have asked of

Do you have to relearn original factory sensors or just a specific brand like autel tpms tools in order to use this software?

Relearning can be performed on OE sensors using this tool. Most aftermarket sensors except the Autel ones can be programmed with this software. In the 4 months I have had the tool, I have not experienced any issues.

Do you know if this is going to activate any relearns on the 2011 GMC Sierra?

Thanks Luke, but the OTC tool does not activate or reprogramme. The ID is the only thing read. Several cars have been tried by me. The work is not going on. As far as I am concerned, the product serves no purpose Thanks for your advice. I really want to return the product. Let me know how to do it. I am Phuoc

Is it possible to program sensors with it?

Yes, the program can be used to program both Using it is very easy because it is menu driven. You can read the TPMS, program it, and diagnose it with this machine. A battery test for key fobs is also included in the device. Besides that, it allows you to upgrade your system for free. I just love this tool because it does all the work for me. Here is my attempt at being helpful.

Selected User Reviews For OTC Tools 3838 TPMS Tool

The price is a bit steep, but this tool is excellent! Having purchased a competitor's model that only programmed its brand of TPMS sensor, I decided to purchase this instead

5/5

In the end, the Schrader EZ sensor I had in hand for my 2009 Corvette could not be programmed by this unit as the manufacturer was dealing with a software issue with the current revision so I purchased a different programmable sensor and got it up and running very quickly! Then, I used it to set up my 2008 Accord with sensors. The set-up was quick and easy. This is a good product, although it costs a lot. I have used the tool to do several jobs for friends, and the tool has paid for itself many times over, and has truly been a terrific purchase!.
