bdevillier19 Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 i have a 2012 edge se fwd and i've decided that once the tax return comes in i'm going to put a set of 22" wheels and tires on it. can the TPMS be transfered from the stock wheels to the aftermarket wheels? or if i buy a set of sensors, which type do i need, the band type (read this is for 2010 and older?) or the valve stem type? i'd like to get this figured out so i can have the correct sensors on hand if need be when the day comes to do the upgrade. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 (edited) If you are keeping the stock wheels, good idea to buy a new set of sensors (esp since sensors have batteries that wear out after 5-7 years). You will need stem type sensors that operate at 315 MHz per http://www.fordparts.com/Commerce/PartDetail.aspx?n=dMAS1cRivT6ZQTjtazydRA%3d%3d&id=300034989&m=2&search=true&year=2012&make=Ford&model=Edge Part Number: 1A189(TPMS-12) (9L3Z1A189A I believe) Sample NonFord mfr listing: http://www.ebay.com/itm/4X-Tire-Pressure-Monitoring-Sensor-TPMS-for-Ford-9L3T1A180BB-DE8T1A150AA-TPMS12-/171420002709 Sample OEM Ford listing: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ONE-1-GENUINE-FORD-MOTORCRAFT-TIRE-PRESSURE-SENSOR-TPMS12-DE8T-1A180-AA-/331222293078 http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-NEW-OEM-FORD-F150-F-150-TIRE-PRESSURE-SENSORS-TPMS-DE8T-1A180-AA-/311190097016 Training tool (if DIY'ing): http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-OEM-Ford-TPMS-Sensor-Training-Tool-Tire-Pressure-Programming-Activation-/271293210456 Nice reading from Motorcraft on how to mount/dismount tires from wheels with stem style TPMS: http://www.motorcraftservice.com/vdirs/retail/search/pdf/valvestemtpms.pdf Edited December 22, 2014 by WWWPerfA_ZN0W 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdevillier19 Posted December 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 i saw all of those on ebay and that was what i was looking at. is there any advantage to getting the ford sensors over the nonford? i wont be keeping the stock wheels and the tires are shot so i was planning on having the tires removed and just sell the stock wheels, so i would have access to the stock sensors during the process. is there any risk of damaging the sensors during removal and re-install?

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 I see tire service centers pushing the Schrader brand all the time, my preference is to stick with OEM especially in semi-permanent locations. Can't honestly speak for level of risk by personal experience, but it certainly seems riskier with band-style sensors than stem-style.
