AUTEL MaxiTPMS TS508 Overview and Demo

[@billbeckett1021]

Is it me or does Dave get to play with all the fun tools! His vids leave me wanting to go out and buy more tools! Great vid!

[@OneMechanic]

🤣 Thanks Bill ... Have a great weekend

[@VideoNOLA]

This is come corn-fed Americana right there. Nice work, sir.

I can't argue about the Autel TS508. It's a real time saver, especially when I want to program up to 16 MX 1-Sensors at once.

[@OneMechanic]

Good to know .. Thanks for watching. Stay Safe

[@jtr990]

@@OneMechanic Always will.

[@LynxStarAuto]

@@jtr990 how do you program 16 sensors at once?

[@jtr990]

@@LynxStarAuto Under the TS508's "Quick Mode" or "Advanced Mode," select the make, model, and year of the vehicle you're working on. Then select "Program Sensor." Finally, select "Auto Create 1-16 Sensors." The tool will detect how many blank Autel MX-Sensors there are within 4 inches of the tool. Keep other MX-Sensors you don't want to program 4 feet away from the tool. After clicking "Yes" to the specified amount of sensors you want to program, the tool will give out a random sensor ID to each sensor. Programming 16 blank Autel MX-Sensors is useful if you have a fleet of four cars of the same make, model, and year. In my case, programming 4 Autel MX-Sensors at the same time is plenty enough. Especially, when I have to deal with different vehicles on a daily basis.

Thanks for the information 😁👍

I knew you would like that thing Dave. It is irreplaceable in the tire world these days, and very versatile.

[@OneMechanic]

Very happy with the results. can't wait to use it again.. Thanks Buddy

[@larrycroft470]

Ha !! Dave everybody watching this channel likes you!! I always enjoy watching your videos. I learn something and your calm demeanor is relaxing. Another good one my C A L M friend!!

[@OneMechanic]

Thanks Larry 😁 Hope you have been well

[@CountryMileGarage]

Thanks for sharing uncle Dave

[@OneMechanic]

Thanks Theo... have an awesome weekend

[@TurboTyTy]

Never had to use one of those yet, but I can see it being very useful when needed…

[@OneMechanic]

Thanks for watching buddy... Have a great weekend

[@olveramelinda]

Me either I do tires everyday. But Nissan is a pain.

[@agtech4580]

Great video I’ve thought about getting a tpms tool like you said it’s paid for in the first use and after that it’s making money it would be handy to just to repair your own stuff

[@OneMechanic]

Yep... Thanks for watching. Stay safe Kelly

[@Itsdazeni]

Great and well detailed video thanks Dave! I been wanting one

[@OneMechanic]

Thanks Davion 😁👍 Hope you have been welll

[@kdtxtooldad]

Thanks for sharing, looks really good, love the display

[@OneMechanic]

Thanks buddy... stay safe

[@gilmansgarage6341]

I prefer the sensors with the screw like the original ones, easy to just service a valve stem..the clip lock seems tricky..Have a great weekend Buddy..

[@OneMechanic]

That is a good point. I didnt think about that... 😁👍 Thanks Howard

[@gilmansgarage6341]

A little rum in the coke bottle to get things started..👍 .., What word has P in it ..say it Dave 😂..Then the music I thought my phone jumped to a different kind of video 😁..Always 💛 because your #1..

[@OneMechanic]

🤣🤣🤣 To funny brother. Have a great weekend

[@VideoNOLA]

Pretty sure the "P" is for "Promotional" cuz lots of 'em are going for cheap on eBay. Mechanics who popped for the sensor packages ain't stupid. 🙂

[@bigpuppytools4295]

G'day Dave, great video.

[@OneMechanic]

Thanks Brian ... btw.. loved your video on the forward/reverse switch... stay safe😁👍

[@MiguelMartinez-hm1hg]

Great video 📸 man now I need to find a tire beat breaker you I can replace them to and buy some of them sensors 😜😜

[@OneMechanic]

Yep... lol ... Have a great weekend

[@toolsmetals2148]

I never used a Autel before ... I actually have a Ateq Vt55 that works pretty well that reads most vehicles with programming and relearning just as well Key 🔑 fob Programming but I could probably use a upgrade because the model I have is not of the newest ... Im gonna take a look at that Autel ... Good video Dave ☕🤘

[@OneMechanic]

Thanks Darrian .... Hope you are well..

[@TheGregWallace]

Question.....where did you buy this package deal? buying 10 sensors and got the tool free?

[@OneMechanic]

Originally I got from my tire supply dealer. But also at that time Amazon was doing the same kind of deal. I dont know if anyone currently has this deal.

[@TheGregWallace]

@@OneMechanic I have found similar deals and the prices are all over the place. I need the aluminum stem one instead of the rubber ones. I will call Altel to see what the deal is .. Thank you for the info.

[@TheGregWallace]

@@OneMechanic If you don't mind me asking what did you pay for that tool and the 8 sensors and is the it the Wifi version?

[@OneMechanic]

If I remember correctly, the sensors where 10 or 12 bucks each and then the scanner was free... I have only used this 4 times but has worked everytime. 08 Chevrolet truck, 2021 Ford F150, 2018 Chevrolet truck and 2020 Hyundia.

[@adamn5821]

Can you only program the Autel branded tpms sensors? Or can you program other brands of tpms sensors?

[@OneMechanic]

Only the autels

[@BroncoED1972]

What do you do if the vehicle doesn't have any tpms sensors installed. The previous owner had them removed will the ts508 make the new ones I have work?

[@OneMechanic]

They would have to be Autel tpms sensors.. I have only used this on GMC and Ford trucks. It was easy to copy the original s/n from the ecm and program the Autel sensors... other manufacturers I have no clue

[@BroncoED1972]

Hey thanks for the reply I purchased one of these 508's with 12 sensors and will see if I can program the other sensors I already purchased since I can't really send them back at this point. @@OneMechanic

[@bernardolson7817]

Dave, 09 chevy impala. I replaced a sensor and activated it at 315 with my OTC brand older TPMS tool. I dont have the original key fob to have the car relearn mode to start the relearn process. My friend just got one of these Autel tools. My question, do you knkw how to get the car to recognize the new sensor already installed. The Autel scanned each wheel and shows they are activated with the id numbers, 315hertz and the actual tire psi, yet I dont know how to get the ECU to recoginize the tire in the dash as LR. Any ideas? Any help is greatly appreciated!

[@OneMechanic]

On my 08 Chev, you have to plug into your OBD port. Let the scanner read what it has stored and then program four new Autel sensors with those IDs. That is what I did for my truck. As far as I know it won't program the ECM. It just programs Autel TPMS sensors.

[@bernardolson7817]

@@OneMechanic i got into the relearn mode with the Autel scanner, under the advance button. I had put a new ac/delco tpms in. The advance feature allows autel to link everything and activate the relearn mode for the ecu. I didnt have to install an autel sensor. I was in a hurry so wasnt able to record the steps but it is capable of reload/program ac delco sensors. Thanks for the response. When I do the front wheel monitors with the other 2 ac delco sensors I have, Ill try to video for reference on how to do it.

[@OneMechanic]

@bernardolson7817 I'm glad that it worked and now I know... stay safe

[@jdmkiller5036]

Can i program different brand of sensors with that tool?? Or it has to be mx sensor

[@OneMechanic]

It has to be the Autel.. You can check the status of OEM but only Autel to program.

[@insertnamehere5146]

can it knock out that check engine light or is it a one trick pony? can it reset airbag lights? Thanks

[@OneMechanic]

I honestly don't know. I have only used it for tpms sensors on GMC and Ford trucks..

[@insertnamehere5146]

@@OneMechanic its a bit of a mine field out there for OBD readers. some will only work with certain brands, some won't even put out a engine light on the dash. looking through the amount of choice on Amazon, I really don't know what to buy. They all seemed to be knocked out in China. I have Ford, Chrysler and dodge vehicles and haven't a clue what would be the right OBD reader for me.

[@OneMechanic]

I totally understand and the SnapOn, Mac and Bosch are just crazy priced. My last garage we had a Can-Do. It was mainly for doing big trucks but was also a generic OBD scanner. It was decent but didn't like jeeps. I have a small handheld Launch at home. It's about ten years old and it works well for just a reader. I always hear good things about the Autel but I have never used one so I don't know. I'm now a mobile Tech working on cranes and aerials and I do very little on the chassis side so I'm kinda out of the loop. If I was to look, I would look at Launch because I had such good luck with my old one or try Autel. Good luck and stay safe.

[@olveramelinda]

Gm are the easiest $13 sensor and $9 relearn tool. The rest are the pain in the rear

[@mandeepsingh-gx8dk]

good 👍

[@OneMechanic]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@vaughndibble4598]

Will it work with NAPA brand TPM sensors

[@OneMechanic]

It will only program the Autel Sensors. But you can do the position relearn and check the status of any sensor.

[@rotaxrider]

So I can clone a Toyotas sensors to 4 new Autel sensors

[@OneMechanic]

I'm not sure because I haven't tried on a Toyota.. but they do work gmc, chevrolet and Ford trucks...

[@stevenguyen7124]

After watch your video, buy ts508 right away $160

I hope you like it . Stay safe
