Programming issue with new tpms sensors am i missing something?

[BUCKYBRONCO2021]

Hello all just a quick question. I installed the new wheels yesterday on my 2021 obx and they didnt program the new tpms sensors. They are schrader 315htz ones

I put the truck into learn mode and used my programmer:

And i cant get them to read. I even tried the let air out technique but no dice.

As i read it looks like some people say you have to aftually use a programmer that hooks up to the obd port. Anyway im lost. Anyone ever have to go through this? Am i missing something? Any help would be appreciated.

i`m going with wrong ones........

These are the oem ford ones. Maybe im wrong for doing this but i've always gotten Schrader sensors as i feel like they are a consistently good quality and never had an issue ever, while i have had issues with oems and also the chinesium ones.

what i was really asking about was the learning process for a new sensor on these vehicles. The sensors i got are the correct htz, claimed to be preprogrammed and we listed as a correct replacement for oem.

With that all being said, after all the drama of me trying to get these to work yesterday in the rain, this morning, as i was driving i hit 50mph and the sensors all started reading. They are now working. i didnt have to do anything else to them. Its weird but hey, if its stupid and it works, it aint stupid.

Thank you for the input though, i appreciate it.

I did not do anything when I installed new wheels/tires. They just worked...

Provided they're the right frequency, just drive around for awhile. They should figure it out on their own.

They did change the frequency for the sensors for 2025 - so make sure you have the right ones if you had them changed or this is a new set of tires.

Thats a very good point. For a second i was worried about it but up until 25 they were 315htz so these are good. And after all that once i hit 50 mph they must have activated or talked to the truck or whatever sensors do but they are now working so im all good.

I don't even bother with aftermarket sensors plus that's a lot of counterfeits never had an issue with Ford sensors, plug and play. I got lucky with some take offs for 75$ when doing my second set of OBX wheels with Blizzak DMV2 in Sept.
