In this video, find out why a TPMS sensor may not function on a Hyundai Tucson, although the reasons are generally the same for all vehicles. First, if you have changed from winter to summer tyres or vice versa, the new sensors may not have been installed or activated; additionally, if you rotate the tyres, the sensors must be reinitialized.

Another reason could be if you have had a puncture and drove for a while with a flat tyre: in this case, the sensor is essentially destroyed and the system no longer detects it. The reset performed at the dealership is expensive; there are also simple devices for TPMS relearning, such as the code B07P9PKD56 on Amazon, which costs £16.00 with free delivery for Prime customers.
