And after I checked that R3 is connected to this pin already but thru the resistance which I removed. Anyway I will try once again.

But still another question - in case if in PIC's memory some other sensor's IDs are programmed should I first clean the PIC's ID memory or Config tool during learning process will do it automaticly ?

Thank you

The PIC doesn't store any identical sensor ID, so if you want to pair some new sensors, a memory clean is not need, otherwise you need to reset the PIC memory through TPMS Doctor.

Thank you very much for clear answer !

Well just got my TPMS kit all setup and running, finally. Was glad everything worked fine.

Just finished soldering together my TPMS kit...
Plugged it in, and it found the device, and installed fine...
Ran TPMS Doctor, and it says device status online, but with the sensors sitting in a box, are they dormant?
Do they need a pressure/temp change for it to work?
It's showing raw data when I plug it in though...

Hope I didn't bugger it with my soldering!!

Thanks

Did you learn sensors?

No, they are still in the box (the stems)...
Do you mean they have to be taught before I cut up the IC board?
I hope I can "learn" them after soldering the board together (CF plugin?)!

The sensors are sleeping when there is not great pressure on them. They wont transmit so you wont see them on the pc. When you mount them on your tires, you can start learning them by decreasing or increasing pressure, following the instructions of the software of course.

Does the TPMS Doctor have the learning feature, or do I have to use the CF plugin?
