Does anyone know if this tool will work? Seems legit. $32.40 is the best price I've found.

Its the orange one. EL-50448. Looks like my ebay link doesnt work. But if you search for it (tpms reset tool), it will show up...

Link worked for me

I belive this is the same one I looked at a while back. I messaged them and they said that it won't work.

I have the Ateq VT15 and it works great. I paid $70 for it about a year ago. Here is a link but it looks like it has gone up in price a bit.

Cheers!

I've got that same one. Worked perfectly for me and that's a GREAT price!

 

ditto - I bought, have, use the orange EL 50448, works easily. One trip to get them relearned and it pays for itself.

 

I just purchased the same one from this place for 27 bucks shipped.

thanks....I just placed an order there too! Appreciate the link and help!

 

My only tpms GM vehicle is an '08, and you teach it which wheel is which by getting it into learning mode and letting air out of each tire.

Is it different now? It requires a tool? Sorry to be out of the loop, haven't bought a twin yet.

 

They killed that method after 2011.

 

That tool is just a waste of money for me. I just carry a little manual gauge in the center console for when a low pressure light comes on to find which one it is.

 

You tell me after I've made the purchase!

Thanks

The EL-50448 is the tool GM authorized by Kent Moore. This is the tool to have and normally it is around $60 and worth every penny.

The EL-50448 will work on all new vehicles and GM state will work well into the future as there are no plans to change the system. It will also work on all models back to 08.

While some may hate to pay $60 this is the cheapest tool out from the MFG as most other companies require a much more expensive tool to set the tires. GM made sure this was available from Kent Moore before they went to the new system. At least they did not stick us with a $300 or more system.

the old system had some faults and when they fixed them them they would not longer let you do the GM Chinese fire drill of letting air out.

You buy this one it will be worth every penny over time. I would have bought one even if they had not changed the system.

As for the other ones out they may or may not work. Best to go with the one sanctioned.

 

I have the EL-50448 and it works just fine.

 

good idea to have a TPMS rest tool if you have a spare rotating in as I intend to do soon.

 

You got a 17" to fit into the spare tire carrier? Thought it only held that cheesy smaller sized one.

 

Toughsox: I'm ordering a full size spare next week and probably a Wilco Hitchgate; I'm sure you are right that my 33" tire will not fit underneath.

 

one consideration going with a Hitchgate is the extra 18-24" of length added at the back! I already have the crew cab and long box; my Colorado is harder to handle in tight spots than my old H1. The under-hung spare is a bad location for off-roading; my truck is lifted but the clearance between the road and old spare just looks too low. I plan to use the old spare well for a compressed air tank.

 

Thanks. $27, delivered in about four days and worked just fine.

 

What. . .. where? I would like that price also... please share with the rest of us.

Also, I assume you are talking about the reset tool?

 

I got the blue one. Works well....

 

Multiple TPMS Sensors Sets/Swap?

Let me throw out this scenario.

1. Currently have four wheels mounted on truck. TPMS system works perfect.
2. Purchase four "new" wheels with different TPMS sensors (included with new wheels).
3. Remove current wheels and install newly purchased wheels.

Will the new wheels have to be "paired" with the tool in order for the low pressure monitoring system to work at all?

Or, will it work but just possibly report bogus wheel location?

The later would be ok with me, because if it shows low pressure in the DIC, I'll just check all four wheels with a gauge.

 

If the original wheels are next to the vehicle, they would give bogus location readings. When the original are separated from the vehicle, the light TPMS light will come on and give you an error message. The new sensors will need to be paired to work correctly.

 

...The new sensors will need to be paired to work correctly.

Looks like the reset tool is in my future. I've read here that this one has worked for Gen2 trucks?

yup, I'll second that - same one I have, works perfect. super good value.

 

It also comes in an Orange color too. Those work and look the same even in a different color.

 

I bought from here and I think it is cheaper than Amazon. Works great and delivered fast.

Fair warning, the chime that notifies start, learned, and finish is your horn. Very obnoxious...
