How to Set Up the VDO REDI-Sensor TPMS158

##


Introduction
The VDO REDI-Sensor TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) is a wireless system that monitors the tire pressure and temperature of your vehicle's tires. The system consists of four TPMS sensors, a receiver module, and a display unit. The sensors are installed on the valve stems of your tires, and they transmit data to the receiver module. The receiver module then sends the data to the display unit, which displays the tire pressure and temperature information for each tire.


Setting Up the TPMS
To set up the VDO REDI-Sensor TPMS, you will need the following tools:
* A torque wrench
* A 13mm socket
* A tire gauge
1. Install the TPMS Sensors
The first step is to install the TPMS sensors on the valve stems of your tires. To do this, use the 13mm socket to remove the valve stem caps. Then, use the torque wrench to tighten the TPMS sensors onto the valve stems. The torque specification for the TPMS sensors is 10-15 ft-lbs.
2. Program the TPMS Sensors
Once the TPMS sensors are installed, you need to program them to the receiver module. To do this, start by turning on the receiver module. Then, press and hold the "SET" button on the receiver module for 3 seconds. The receiver module will then enter programming mode.
Next, use the tire gauge to inflate the tires to the desired pressure. Once the tires are inflated, press and hold the "SET" button on the TPMS sensor for 3 seconds. The TPMS sensor will then transmit its data to the receiver module.
Repeat this process for each of the remaining TPMS sensors.
3. Mount the Display Unit
The final step is to mount the display unit in your vehicle. The display unit can be mounted on the dashboard or windshield. To mount the display unit, use the supplied mounting bracket and screws.


Using the TPMS
Once the TPMS is set up, it will automatically monitor the tire pressure and temperature of your vehicle's tires. If the tire pressure or temperature falls below a preset threshold, the display unit will emit an audible alert and display a warning message.
You can adjust the preset thresholds for the tire pressure and temperature in the receiver module's settings menu.


Troubleshooting
If you are experiencing problems with your VDO REDI-Sensor TPMS, you can troubleshoot the system by following these steps:
* Check the batteries in the TPMS sensors. The batteries in the TPMS sensors typically last for 5-7 years. If the batteries are low, you will need to replace them.
* Check the connections between the TPMS sensors and the receiver module. Make sure that the connections are secure and that there is no corrosion or damage to the wires.
* Check the receiver module. If the receiver module is not functioning properly, you will need to replace it.
If you are still experiencing problems with your VDO REDI-Sensor TPMS, you should contact a qualified technician for assistance.
