The Foxwell TS7000 Tablet Diagnostic and TPMS Service Tool is designed to elevate your TPMS diagnostics experience to a professional level. This versatile tool serves as your second or third step into TPMS diagnostics, offering a comprehensive range of features for both TPMS and high-level diagnostic functions.

At its core, the Foxwell TS7000 enables you to activate OEM/Universal TPMS sensors, retrieve detailed TPMS sensor data (including sensor ID, tire pressure, temperature, battery condition, and OE part number), relearn 98% of sensor IDs, program FOXWELL T10-sensor for sensor replacement, and test Remote Keyless Entry Key Fobs. 

But that's not all. This tool goes beyond TPMS with advanced diagnostic capabilities such as ABS Bleeding, EVAP system testing, Oil Resets, Fuel Pressure Testing, Oxygen Sensor Testing, and comprehensive Code Reading functionality. With regular hardware and software updates, the Foxwell TS7000 ensures that you stay ahead in tackling automotive issues with precision and efficiency.

Standout Features (How does it standout from previous models, i.e. the T1000/T2000?):

• Will allow you to connect to all sensors at once and view all of their data at the same time
• Can now program sensors by copying through OBD (eliminates need for relearn, see "Programming" in description for details)
• Wireless connection to OBD2 port
• Wireless updates (One Touch Update)
• Larger screen (5.5-inch screen, T2000 is 2.8-inch)
• Updated, larger hardware (32 GB RAM, 5V battery, now offers camera for VIN-reading)
• CAN FD support
• Print TPMS sensor data on PC

More Features:

• Activate 98% OEM/Universal TPMS sensors

Programming:

With this TPMS programming tool, you can program FOXWELL T10 TPMS sensors (T2317833 or T2317834 ) to meet the specifications of a particular vehicle before new sensor installation and relearn. 4 different sensor programming methods are supported by the FOXWELL TS5000 TPMS Service Tool: Copy by Activation; Manual Create; Automatic Create. (Note: TS5000 will only program a replacement sensor if it is a FOXWELL T10 sensor, which can be easily found on our site.)

• Copy by OBD:
  • This method pulls the previously registered sensor ID through the vehicle's TPMS module using OBDII, and will then program the ID to the FOXWELL T10 sensor
  • This eliminates the need for a relearn by combining both steps into one
• Copy by Activation
  • If your original sensor works and can be activated. You could use this method to program a new sensor. It will clone the original ID to the new FOXWELL T10 sensor.
• Copy by Manual Input:
  • If you know the original sensor ID, you can input the ID to program new sensor.
• Auto Create Sensors:
  • If you don't know the original sensor ID or your original sensor was bad, you can choose this method. Install new sensor ID--> program new sensor--> perform TPMS learning and let the car recognize new sensor

Relearning:

The FOXWELL TS5000 TPMS Service Tool can be used as a professional TPMS relearn scanner, to relearn almost all known sensor IDs, which is compatible with 95% of vehicles equipped with TPMS and extremely popular among car repair ships and DIY car owners. To ensure compatibility with different vehicles, 3 types of TPMS sensor relearning are offered:

• OBD Relearn:
  • Usually the most effective relearn tactic, this will allow you to connect the TS5000 to your car wirelessly using the OBDII port and placing your vehicle in a relearn mode.
• Automatic Relearn:
  • For some vehicles, the “Relearn” function can be completed automatically by driving, which makes it quite easy to do a complete set of sensor replacement operations on your own. Be aware that this may require you to drive the vehicle at a certain speed for a designated amount of time for it to relearn.
• Stationary Relearn:
  • TS5000 allows the new TPMS sensor IDs to be transferred without driving a vehicle. You can trigger the sensors when the vehicle is in learn mode by our TPMS Tool TS5000. This will usually require a specific sequence created by the vehicle manufacturer as well, such as pressing the brake a few times, turning the key, etc.

Please note that some vehicles require a combination of these relearning methods, such as needing to drive for a designated amount of time after relearning using OBD. There may also be extra steps your manufacturer uses, so please research your specific vehicle when performing a relearn!

Note:

• Certain functions may be limited from the vehicle manufacturer due to the requirement of a special factory access code. 
  • Pre OBDII vehicles will have limited feature availability
• We recommend purchasing a Bentley Manual to use with your TPMS Tool.
• You will need to register your TPMS tool in order to receive update notice's from Foxwell via E-mail
• Vehicles with 20 pin under hood connector will require T366829  for use
