Hamburger Hypersonic October 25, 2021 Share October 25, 2021 Bought these TPMS the valve screw in type and one day the screen went blank with no readings. The screw plug batt went dead? How long are they suppose to last? 6mths or 1yr?? So basically is to throw away if that happens and get another brand new set as its relatively cheap.

What did you buy? Got at least a pic to show? No display means battery flat. Charge the display unit? If the sensor batt is about to go flat usually there is a visual and sound warning. Usually run by a button battery. Easy to replace with the tool provided. Edited October 25, 2021 by Watwheels 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Display unit is all good and bright except no reading with a - - - - for all 4. And yes... It kept on pee pee pee then. The valve looks like a concealed unit. Shall get the small spanner equipped to see whether it could be opened. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be some small tools that came with the set to swap out the batteries. I think you can buy the batts from daiso if not Japan home. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you try to reset the reading? After you reset it should stop beeping then you have to drive to a certain speed for it to get back a reading. At stationary it cannot get a reading. Yours is external sensor or internal sensor? Edited October 25, 2021 by Watwheels Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
