How to Get TPMS on Cars That Don't Have It as Standard

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Tire pressure warning light

This video is aimed at older cars that do not have the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) already fitted as standard, allowing you to benefit from the safety this accessory provides, as it monitors tyre pressure and alerts you to any issues. You can find this on it.Gearbest.com for £28.00, which can be charged via micro USB or solar panel. The package includes valves clearly marked with the position where they should be installed. Turn on the device by pressing the button on the left. The central button is for settings. The white number sequences indicate tyre pressure, while the yellow ones indicate temperature. Start by installing the valves: remove the old valve from the tyre, fit the supplied adapter, and following the instruction diagram, position the valve correctly on the right wheel, tightening it securely. Mount the device on the dashboard and check how it displays the pressure, which can be shown in bar or PSI, and the temperature of the tyres in Celsius or Fahrenheit. If the pressure drops too low (or the temperature rises too high), this value will start to flash.
