Standard Ignition QS102M Tire Pressure Monitoring System Programmable Sensor

Overview of Standard Ignition QS102M TPMS Programmable Sensor

The Standard Ignition QS102M is a battery-powered Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) programmable sensor designed for precise real-time tire pressure monitoring. Compatible with a wide range of vehicles including BMW 3 Series, Audi A4, and Ford Explorer, this sensor ensures accurate pressure data transmission at 433 MHz frequency.

• Battery-powered sensor for reliable operation
• Bolt-on connector type with nickel coated core
• Metal inflation valve with clamp-in mounting method
• Includes mounting hardware for wheel installation
• Real-time pressure signal transmission at 433 MHz
• Sensor nut torque specification: 35 in/lbs
• Must be programmed prior to installation

Technical Details and Features

The QS102M TPMS sensor features a nickel coated core that enhances durability and corrosion resistance. Its metal inflation valve is designed for secure clamp-in mounting directly on the wheel, supported by included mounting hardware. Operating at a frequency of 433 MHz, this sensor provides real-time tire pressure data to the vehicle’s monitoring system. The bolt-on connector type simplifies installation, while the sensor nut torque is specified at 35 in/lbs to ensure proper fitment and function. Note that this sensor is not an OEM replacement and requires programming before installation to match the vehicle’s system.

Compatible Vehicles and Fitment

This programmable TPMS sensor is compatible with numerous makes and models, including but not limited to BMW 3 Series models such as 328i, 335i, and 330xi, Audi A4 and A6 Quattro, Ford Explorer, and luxury vehicles like Mercedes-Benz and Land Rover. The part number QS102M is suitable for vehicles requiring a 433 MHz frequency sensor with a metal clamp-in valve type.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replaces faulty or non-responsive TPMS sensors
• Restores accurate tire pressure monitoring for BMW 328i and Audi A4
• Prevents false low tire pressure warnings
• Supports vehicles with metal clamp-in valve requirements
• Enables real-time pressure data transmission for enhanced safety

Installation Notes and Tips

Before installation, the QS102M sensor must be programmed to the vehicle’s TPMS system using compatible diagnostic tools. Ensure the sensor nut is torqued to 35 in/lbs to avoid damage or improper sealing. The clamp-in mounting method requires careful handling to secure the sensor on the wheel valve stem. Mounting hardware is included to facilitate proper installation. This sensor is designed for wheel mounting only and is not a direct OEM replacement, so programming and calibration are essential for correct operation.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Standard Ignition provides quality-tested TPMS sensors engineered for durability and reliable performance. The nickel coated core and metal valve construction contribute to long service life under typical driving conditions. While this product requires programming prior to use, it meets industry standards for aftermarket TPMS sensors. Warranty details should be confirmed with the product documentation or supplier.
