Not anymore

Wires from the TPMS module were the opposite way round I've spliced them at the PDC module casue it was easier

So those are connections B383 and B390 into BCM rekating to that image Where would SC59 power supply be connected . Thanks a million in advance

Well done mate!
My eyesight is not as good as it used to be.
Jase must be very happy now .

The wire colours are wrong on the TPMS loom. We had to connect Orange/black on the loom to orange/brown on the van.

It’s not picking up the sensors though

Where does the SC59 power supply get connected ?

Where does the SC59 power supply get connected ?

Any permanent power supply point will do. Obviously equipped with a fuse.

Any constant live (terminal 30) in the fuse box

Where would you suggest , how did you do it ?

Lower the unit temporarily and take it for a good bit of drive, like 1 mile.

Good idea

So would you piggy back off what size of fuse ?

No piggyback for me, I want it OEM so new fuse insert in the fuse box​

And finally big thanks and huge credit to @dnoermann for the inspiration !
I wouldn't even think about this superb retrofit!
I was so happy with my indirect TPMS, how wrong I was!

I plan on doing this mod over the summer, even though my BCM is only H80.

Might take a punt on one of these temporarily.



(@Dellmassive might like these as they are solar. )

I'm having problems with the sensors not showing on the display, but are registered pressures and temps on VDCS???

Any pointers?

What sensors did you get?
Can you also show what your IC display is showing current?

 

[Plumbwise]

There is anything else to do to active the new sensors??

 

[Robert]

A 1 mile drive at decent speed .

 

[Deaky]

Where have you fitted the tpms module?

 

[Plumbwise]

Towards the rear towards the offside?
