WHICH DEVICE SHOULD I USE FOR MINI TPMS SYSTEMS?

All ATEQ tools are compatible with Mini original sensors. Many devices also program universal aftermarket sensors to be fitted in Mini vehicles. Choose the ATEQ VT36 tool if you require an activation tool for Mini sensors. To reset the Ford TPMS ECU, an OBDII capable tool such as the ATEQ VT56 is recommended.

What happens when a TPMS sensor Is faulty or damaged?

REPLACING A TPMS SENSOR ON A MINI VEHICLE

When a Mini TPMS sensor is broken, or does not respond anymore, it is time to replace it. Go to the Part Number Lookup menu in the ATEQ TPMS tool menu, to find the right Original Equipment spare part replacement number for Mini. Another alternative is to programme a universal sensor. A TPMS programming tool such as the VT36, VT46 and the VT56 allows to programme over 10 brands of universal sensors. See this video about programming a TPMS sensor.

ARE MINI VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH DIRECT OR INDIRECT TPMS SYSTEMS?

MINI vehicles use a DIRECT TPMS system. This system uses wireless TPMS sensors to directly measure air and temperature in the wheels and transmits the data to the car’s ECU. The advantage of the direct sensors is that it’s more accurate. The battery life of TPMS sensors is about 6-9 years depending on use. The relearn procedure for all Mini cars is Auto Relearn. However, Ateq has developed specific OBDII procedures for over 60% of Mini vehicles. These OBDII relearn procedures are available on the ATEQ VT56 TPMS tool for example.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A SOLID TPMS LIGHT AND A FLASHING TPMS LIGHT?

The TPMS warning light will illuminate when a tire is low, and should eventually go out after a tire has been inflated to its recommended pressure according to the vehicle’s door placard. After starting a vehicle, a TPMS icon will turn on for a few seconds. However, if the light stays on, it indicates that one or more of the tires on the vehicle are at least 25% below the recommended pressure. If the light flashes for one to two minutes, it indicates there is a malfunction in the TPMS system. There are many situations that can cause a TPMS warning light to come on or flash.

One or more sensor batteries could be dead. The valve itself may have physical damage, corrosion or missing components or the TPMS system voltage supply, wiring or internal electronics may not be functioning properly. The tires were serviced or rotated and the relearn procedure was not properly performed. It is important to check the TPMS system before working on a customer’s vehicle. Using an ATEQ TPMS diagnostic tool, such as a VT56 or VT36.
