TPMS Inactive

Bulobeef · 05-09-2022, 01:50 PM

Hey guys, I just installed new wheels on my 2007 E92 328xi, and it's my first time doing so. The wheels are from an F chassis 3 series.

It seems that upon installing them, I get a TPMS Inactive light. The wheels came equipped with their own TPMS sensors, so I was wondering what the best/most cost effective option would be, knowing that I bought an external TPMS sensor.

I was thinking about turning off the warning light for good and just use the external sensors I bought (how do I do this?)

I am also open for suggestions on how to go about this. I posted a picture for reference. Thanks!

The F30 sensors are different, so you either need to transfer your old sensors to the new wheels or just have it coded out and be done with it.

I coded mine out even though it worked perfectly, less complication and less weight in the wheels.
