Can Autel TPMS tools program third-party TPMS sensors?

Autel TPMS tools, including models like TS401, TS408, TS408S, TS508WF, TS601, and others, are only capable of programming Autel MX-Sensors. They cannot be used to program other aftermarket TPMS sensors.

However, while Autel TPMS tools can only program Autel MX-Sensors, they can still be used to relearn OE sensors, Autel MX-Sensors, and other pre-programmed TPMS sensors.
