My rear TPMS is acting up. Sometimes it shows, other times I just get - - -. no low batt warning or anything. Is the sensor just dying?
I sent you a PM I think I will have one to send you?I'm still doing TPMS battery replacements and testing. Let me know if I can help.
Could you direct me to more information on this? Are they just the Autel MX 1-sensor's for automobiles? Who did you need to go to to have them programed to your bike? I have a front on it's way out on my 2017 and am looking for options. I'm not sure Kawasaki is the way to go if there is something else that can be programed to work with the bike. Thanks!I went to the Autel MX sensors. Easy peasy.
It's a sensor for a car. Buy the programming pad and you're in under $100. You pull the original sensor. Add 000 to the beginning of the ID on the original sensor. It begins with a F on mine. Fire up a computer with the their software installed and set it up for an early model Mazda 3. It's pretty easy.Could you direct me to more information on this?

Thank you! After a couple hours of research on this yesterday I was able to find some information on it. There are also some Youtube videos done by a guy who's using a different brand of universal sensor but pretty much the same and is also programming it as a Mazda sensor of some sort. I don't have a PC at home (all Mac's) but my son has one so maybe I can load the software on his and use it. Thought about buying one of their cheaper handhelds. Either way I'm saving money.

Thanks for the input. I will most likely join as I'm finding this forum helpful. I will probably ride out the free period though. Have owned lots of bikes but have never seen a forum before that had a fee involved. I get it though so no worries. Hoping to keep this bike for a while. I also have an Africa Twin and a CT125 after spending years on a Vstrom.
I think someone there screwed up. I texted them.I was at Temecula Motorsports in Temecula California a few days ago and got a price quote on TPMS for my 2010 Connie 1400. He said they are $63 now. I presume with the discontinuation of the C 1400 that the clearance sale has begun for Kawasaki.
Yep, i wish both mine were the old style.Hang on to those older style sensors if you have them. I'm replacing batteries in four more sets of them just this week, and I can keep them going pretty much forever.
I am just the messenger on the sensors because he didn't print anything out from behind the counter. perhaps he was quoting the dealer cost price by mistake.I think someone there screwed up. I texted them.
They get stupid on prices like that. It does come in handy for an insurance claim though. They want around $1500 for a final drive. eBay, $100I am just the messenger on the sensors because he didn't print anything out from behind the counter. perhaps he was quoting the dealer cost price by mistake.
I also bought a front and rear wheel off of E Bay from Georgia. They came complete with sensors and brake rotors and appear to have been sitting outside in the elements for a long time because the rotors had some rust on them. The paint is terrible and paint stripper has been ordered to see if I can clean these wheels up. I also ordered new wheel bearings for both sets of wheels for peace of mind.
While getting new Road 5 tires I asked for a price quote for a 2010 back wheel. I was quoted $933.
What do you charge for battery replacement on these sensors? What battery do they take? Is it a pretty specialized service to perform?Hang on to those older style sensors if you have them.

I am pretty close to having 2 tpm sensors in hand that I can send you for battery replacement. Will check for your contact info in my in box. Or, should I buy new MX sensors mentioned herein this thread and program them?You can do it yourself if you have the right tools and skills, though I've seen a lot of sensors that folks have damaged in the process of replacing the battery. I have a special tester I use on them, and I also use a better battery that usually lasts a bit longer. I sent you my contact info in a PM and can provide you all the particulars.
