New Snap-on TPMS4 Tool Tests Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors, Captures Sensor Data, Relearns Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems

An all-in-one tool for multiple vehicle applications, the TPMS4 features vehicle-specific prompts and reset procedures following tire rotation and sensor replacement.

Snap-on is introducing its new Tire Pressure Sensor System Tool Kit, a unique diagnostic tool that tests tire pressure monitoring sensors, captures sensor data and relearns tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS). An all-in-one tool for multiple vehicle applications, the TPMS4 features vehicle-specific prompts and reset procedures following tire rotation and sensor replacement.

“The Snap-on TPMS4 quickly diagnoses TPMS sensor problems and is unlike any other tool in the marketplace,” said Michael DeKeuster, a Snap-on Tools product manager. “It works in concert with other Snap-on diagnostic platforms, and comes standard with software to program aftermarket sensors. The software also contains vehicle-specific relearn procedures on board for quick lookups, which makes it a beneficial tool for any shop.

The streamlined user interface on the TPMS4 features a daylight-readable, high-resolution display for reading PSI, ID, temperature, battery status and more. It quickly determines whether a replacement sensor is needed, provides quick registration of new sensor locations after tire rotations, and tests key FOBs for proper signal strength and battery condition. Running on a Lithium Ion rechargeable battery, the kit also includes TPMS connect software to print sensor information, as well as to access new software updates as they become available.

According to the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA)’s latest findings, the technician shortage has reached critical levels, with an anticipated shortfall of 80,000 technicians by year’s end. The association reports that three technicians will exit the workforce for every new technician who enters. Ouch. 

It’s a rare dealer who hasn’t been affected by the technician shortage. And the deficiency disrupts not just the service department but the entire dealership. Extended wait times for service appointments frustrate customers and can lead to a decline in satisfaction levels. Compromised service quality due to understaffed service departments can damage customer trust and loyalty, ultimately impacting dealership profitability.
