• Ignition off
• Reinstall the connectors, components etc.
• Ignition on.

  Read out the ID numbers for the tire pressure sensors by clicking on the VCT2000 symbol.

  Use the following special tools to activate the sensor.

  • 9512987

  The special tool activates the sensor, which then starts to send information to the Upper Electronic Module (UEM). After activating a sensor, press the "Show data" button for the relevant wheel. Repeat activation for all wheels. Different ID numbers should appear.

  NOTE: Ensure that the special tool is positioned under the edge of the rim against the tire where the sensor is installed. The sensor will not be activated if the tool is against the rim. The sensor must then be held in place for approximately 5 seconds for the signals to be correctly received. Use only one special tool at a time in the vicinity of the car.
  NOTE: Carry out the above in an area away from where other cars are being driven. The receiver can pick up signals from sensors on other cars. An incorrect ID number would then be displayed.

  Check that the relevant sensor(s) respond. Test different wheels to ensure that different ID numbers are displayed.
