The KINGBOLEN EL50448 Plus is a compact 2-in-1 TPMS sensor activation tool for relearn procedures on selected Ford-family and GM-family vehicles. After the vehicle is placed in its factory TPMS learn mode, the tool triggers each compatible tire sensor so the vehicle can relearn its wheel position.
EL50448 Plus is designed for selected Ford-family and GM-family vehicles equipped with a compatible factory TPMS. Supported applications may include selected Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, and Opel models.
The tool is designed to trigger compatible direct TPMS sensors used in supported Ford and GM factory systems with 315 MHz or 433 MHz sensor transmissions. Frequency alone does not guarantee compatibility, so the exact vehicle year, model, market, sensor type, and relearn procedure must be confirmed before purchase.
Once the vehicle has entered TPMS learn mode, hold the EL50448 Plus antenna close to the tire sidewall beside the valve stem and press the activation button. Wait for the vehicle's horn, turn signal, dashboard message, or other confirmation before moving to the next wheel.
Many supported Ford and GM procedures use the following clockwise order: front left, front right, rear right, and rear left. Always follow the wheel position shown by the vehicle or specified in its owner's manual because the sequence, timing requirements, and completion signals can vary.
Place the antenna tip close to the tire sidewall beside the valve stem and near the rim. The valve stem angle and sensor position may affect activation, so reposition the antenna around the valve area if the vehicle does not recognize the sensor immediately.
The green TX indicator shows when the tool is transmitting an activation signal, while the red low-battery indicator alerts you when the 9V battery needs replacement. The one-button layout keeps routine sensor triggering straightforward.
Measuring approximately 5.9 inches tall and 2.4 inches wide, the lightweight EL50448 Plus fits easily in a glove box, garage cabinet, or toolbox. Its self-contained handheld design makes it practical for routine DIY tire service.
The EL50448 Plus series is covered by an FCC Part 15 equipment authorization under FCC ID 2A5FO-EL-50448.
