Title: TPS pairing
Post by: Ant on July 25, 2014, 02:46:42 PM
Before i book it in, is there the slightest possibility that a TPS that has already been paired with a bike will pick up on a different bike once fitted ?

Or is it defo back to a dealer for pairing......... :sweatdrop:

Dont take this as gospel as i copied it from another Kawasaki site. Changing battery is easy, never done a sensor myself.

NOTE: There are 3 models of sensor apparently. Each is identified by one of 3 colours on the outside of the box. Mine was blue. This colour is also visible on the base of the valve stem from the outside of the rim as 2 small paint spots so you don't need to take the tire off to see the colour.

I understand this colour matches the ECU program of the bike. If the sensor is replaced, it needs to be the same. I understand other colours can be used but they or the ECU have to be reprogrammed/re-paired sort of thing by a Kawasaki technician - no doubt costing even more money!

What about,  I've just replaced by batteries in my TPS's.  If I was to put them back on the opposite wheel they came off would the bike know or would the dash be giving a rear wheel pressure on the front wheel display?
