Hi folks, first post and new to the Ford Family.
I picked up my 2021 Explorer ST in Atlas blue with the street pack a month ago. I quite enjoy it. I also ordered a set of after market winter wheels, tires, and sensors. I installed the wheels last weekend but didn’t do the TPMS training process…the new pressures appeared on the display so I thought I was good. After driving for approximately 20km a TPMS fault appeared and no pressures where then displayed. I read the manual about the training process and went through it step by step. It would enter training mode and the display would show ‘train front left wheel’. I never get the single beep to move to next position. It eventually times out. I stopped by a friend’s shop to use his training tool. No luck. He could see each of the sensors operating on 315MHz and get pressure readings on the tool display however we couldn’t get the vehicle to recognize the sensors. He also plugged in his Snap-On tool to clear the TPMS fault in the computer and attempt to train again still no luck. i have searched here and the interweb but haven’t found any matches. Are Ford specific sensors required? One last thing—I did make sure no chargers or devices where in the vehicle during the training process. Thanks for your help and guidance in solving this issue. jeff
