I also tried it with wifi turned off to make sure that wasn't a problem even though it shouldn't be. I'm gonna grab another laptop out of the house and put forscan on it.

I hate to jump in here when you guys are brainstorming.
I don't know what thread it was in (a couple months ago), but someone couldnt connect...similar to what I'm reading here. Bad adapter.
Sent it back, received a new one and all was good for him.
Just a thought.
Carry on.

That will do it. Just be very deliberate on the install and pairing. Don't do anything extra. Good luck.

That's what we're thinking. Oklarado is going to try another laptop to be sure. At least he's getting really good at this!

Finally got it!! I was methodical to do the same thing every time, the one thing I did different this time was turn my fan motor off on my truck. I remember someone writing that all accessories needed to be turned off.

I wanted to change line 726-40-01, yet I did not because my stock setting is different than that shown on the spreadsheet.What is the correct line and values to change tpms?

Plus I didn't see the ability to change that line anyways.

Say what?
I sit out there with the heater on and the motor running. Plus the seat heat.
I don't think it's an accessory problem

Why else did it never work before. I used the same steps every time. Mine did load real slow. It looked like in epic's video his lines came up on screen real quick, mine was much slower.

It maybe just a computer issues as well, I have a win 7 laptop that cant find the BT adpater my win 10 finds it fine, but will sometimes lose it then I have to re pair and start all over, I dont think the software in the adapter is very stable.

I set mine to 50 psi on all tires. Remember that the TPMS warning will come up when you are a certain percentage below that number, not at that number. It's something like 20% so if I set my threshold at 50 PSI, the warning will come on when the actual tire pressure drops to 40 psi ish.

If, you aren't using Google to download your extended key, than I would suggest you do, instead of using IE. Also pay attention to which folded it is being saved too. It will save you headaches.
