No Pressure: Choose your TOPDON Tire Pressure Monitoring System Tool

Tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) on new vehicles have added a layer of safety, economy, and convenience for the consumer, not to mention service opportunities for shops and technicians. TPMS have been required in all passenger cars and light trucks sold in the U.S. since September 1, 2007, and in the European Union since 2014.

TPMS may be established technology, but a changing automotive landscape means technicians need the latest tools to stay current. Tire pressure sensors are increasingly integrated into more complex systems, and the introduction of EVs has added another wrinkle to the TPMS calculus.

TOPDON TPMS tools earn their keep with the latest technology and features. The TP47, TP48, and TP58 are each optimized for particular needs, and offer the flexibility that will have you fixing like a pro in no time. All have protective rubber cases, rechargeable batteries, read 100% of OE sensors, can program 20+ TPMS sensor brands, provide manual relearn procedures, and come with 5 years of free software updates.

The TP47 is an easy-to-use service tool that will be a handy addition to the toolbox of any DIY’er or professional technician. It is highly compatible with aftermarket sensors, has a 2.8-inch color LCD screen, and can perform vehicle-specific TPMS relearns. The TP47 includes over 10 different TPMS functions.

The TP48 is an ideal choice for general repair shops, where tire service might be a secondary business. On top of the TP47’s features, it adds OBDII capability, ECU unlocking, placard adjustment and Sync ID. “The TOPDON TP48 saved the day for me,” reports customer Craig D. in his 5-star product review. “I now use this tool regularly in the garage I work at. The wide application availability of programming aftermarket TPMS sensors has saved many of my customers significant money.”

TOPDON’s newest TPMS tool is the TP58, a do-everything choice for tire shop professionals. It has a large 3.5-inch touch screen, making navigation smooth and effortless, and has Wi-Fi connectivity for seamless updates. The TP58 simplifies tire DOT number recording, and with the optional tire tread depth gauge, technicians can quickly assess tire wear and provide customers with critical safety recommendations.

“The TP58 is an invaluable tool for technicians with expanded diagnostic capabilities across a number of auto manufacturers, including Toyota,” said Chad Schnitz, Vice President of TOPDON USA. “It offers full OEM and aftermarket TPMS coverage allowing users to access and modify a vehicle’s Engine Control Unit (ECU).  Additionally, it has been expanded to enable technicians to access Tesla’s Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology that controls wireless communications between the car and a smartphone or other mobile device.”

Monitoring tire pressures is a simple, yet crucial function on modern vehicles. With TOPDON’s TPMS tools, you’ll keep your customers’ vehicles — and your own — rolling right along.
