Autel MX-Sensor 1-Sensor- Single Pack w/box Press-in Metal Valve Stem

Autel MX-Sensor 1-Sensor — Universal TPMS Sensor with Press-in Metal (Aluminum) Valve Stem

The Autel MX-Sensor 1-SensorM is the aluminum valve stem version of Autel's universal programmable TPMS sensor, sold as a single unit in retail box. It carries the same dual 315MHz/433MHz sensor body as the rubber valve version, with an aluminum press-in valve stem pre-installed. This is the right choice when the vehicle application, customer preference, or shop preference calls for a metal stem rather than rubber — and the patented press release design means you can swap stems without any tools if needed.

Same Sensor, Metal Valve

The 1-SensorM and 1-Sensor (rubber) use identical sensor electronics. The difference is the pre-installed valve stem material. Both sensors program to replace 99% of OE TPMS sensors and cover 98% of TPMS-equipped vehicles from a single SKU. If your shop prefers metal stems — which resist UV degradation and hold up better in climates with road salt or chemical exposure — the 1-SensorM is the correct stock choice.

Press Release Interchangeable Valve System

Autel's patented press release button lets technicians swap valve stems by hand with no fitting tool required. Click in to install, press to release. A shop can stock the rubber version and switch to metal on demand, or stock the metal version and switch to rubber — the sensor head accepts both. Replacement valve stems in rubber, aluminum, and color metal are available separately.

Programming and Coverage

• Dual frequency: 315 MHz and 433 MHz — covers all OE TPMS protocols in one sensor
• Programs with any Autel TPMS service tool (TS508, TS508WF, ITS600, and others)
• 98% vehicle coverage — one SKU replaces nearly every TPMS-equipped vehicle
• Wireless programming works even after sensor is mounted to the wheel
• Up to 16 sensors programmable in one session with latest Autel tools
• 100% cloneable — copy OE sensor ID to eliminate relearn procedure

Quality and Warranty

SAE certified to J1205 and J1206. Autel warrants the 1-Sensor against manufacturing defects for 24 months or 24,000 miles, whichever comes first. Each unit carries a traceable series number imprinted on the sensor body or readable via Autel TPMS tools. The 12g sensor body is lighter than most aftermarket universal sensors, which helps maintain wheel balance over the sensor's service life.

Rubber vs. Metal Valve — Which to Stock?

Both perform identically in terms of TPMS function. Rubber valves are standard for most passenger car applications and are faster to install. Metal (aluminum) valves are preferred for performance applications, trucks, and environments where long-term durability matters. The press release design makes it practical to stock one version and swap when needed. High-volume shops may want to stock both for maximum efficiency.
