Today our workshop buddies introduce you to the Bluetooth-RDKS sensors, which are especially suitable for the Tesla models 3 and Y, from the year of manufacture November 2020.
As part of the facelift of the Tesla Model 3 starting in late fall 2020, Tesla changed its wheel sensors. Instead of the 433 MHz TPMS sensors previously used in Europe, Tesla switched to TPMS sensors that communicate with the vehicle’s control electronics via Bluetooth 2.4 GHz. All Tesla 3 and Y models from the November 2020 model year have these TPMS sensors with Bluetooth technology installed.
Tesla uses an active tire pressure monitoring system in principle. In an active TPMS, sensors are installed that permanently measure the pressure and temperature. All data is sent to the central control unit via Bluetooth. All data is permanently displayed in the cockpit.
The sensors can be used in both aluminum and steel rims. They are supplied in pieces and the scope of delivery also includes the valve.
The installation of the sensors is very easy. The sensors are supplied in a pre-programmed state. Another special feature is that the sensors link themselves to the vehicle while driving. A drive of about 20 minutes is already sufficient for the sensors to learn themselves.
