Hi.
I know this was asked before but never fully resolved with an answer - there was always just "drive to this guy, he can help you".

I have managed to get a MongoosePro clone working with fully updated version of SDD 160 update 5.
I also have access to the engineering mode of SDD and therefore CCF editor (the full version).

I have updated my car CCF to select "Module not installed" for TPMS module, yet I still get warnings on my dashboard.
Yes, I know these can be helpful, but since previous owner decided to install non-original modules, they constantly spew errors and so I cannot really rely on that.
I am used to monitor my own tire pressures, I am better off without the TPMS.

So my question to those knowledgable: Is there anything else I need to do in SDD to disable the TPMS besides configuring it as not equipped in CCF?

 

Yes, alter all the relevant parameters.

 

How many are there?
I found the main one very close the the top of the list, then I scrolled down and nothing that looked like relevant to it didn't pop up

 

I cannot remember off the top of my head, but more than one for sure. Good luck!

 

Hi, I do believe there are 3 CCF files stored throughout the car or there is on my XK and the internal makeup of the XK and XF are very similiar

 

How do I access these 3 separately?
I followed this video

 

Im not really familiar wiv using the SDD, just read this on jaguarforum.com as i was wanted to activate a seated steering wheel at some point, maybe this will help???

I looked through the CCF today and found one other option that i didn't switch.
Curiously enough, the SDD is pretty usable even when completely offline not, hooked to a car.
I will write a guide once I have figured this out.

 

Have an icar soft at the mo but I do want to get the SDD setup at some point, any advice? Software sourced from? What cable do you use? Mongoose etc etc thanks

 

I will do a write-up within a week

 

Ok thanks, dunno if you can ‘link’ me in, tell me the heading to search for or PM me because im usually lurking around the XK bit and dont want to miss your info (being new not sure how site works fully) thanks 👍👍

 

CCF is trial and error because almost nobody has it setup, and those that are knowledgeable don't share their methods. If you do write up something, that would be an anomaly.

I took screenshots of my entire CCF and converted to pdf with text recognition.
Searching for TPMS comes up nil. For 'Tire' the first thing below you probably tried already. Then I checked 'monitor', which led me to 'Tyre', the native spelling. Try some of those.

 

Thanks. There was also one option somewhere in Instrument display or Info display or something like that with number 3 and it was set to Tire pressure monitoring system.
Meaning it was not a property, it was a value of another property!

I will definitely do the write-up, but right now i'm in the middle of electromobility expo where we present the motorcycles we sell

 

Just a quick update. So far I tried the one Tire and one Tyre options, set both to disabled. Still doesn't work although now instead of showing the "check pressure" on random wheels, it just shows TPMS system fault.
So I am definitely making a difference. I still think there is another option that disables the system not only from functioning, but also from showing on the dashboard itself.
Problem is in the CCF editor each setting can have multiple values and it is impossible to easily search (full-text search) within all of these values.

 

I found another post (although it was about the XKR), I would bet that unfortunatley it applies to the XF as they are similar in their electronics....
"Disabling the TPMS in the CCF requires engineering mode, it's not available to be changed in a normal SDD, the dealers are blocked from doing this as well."
HTH

 

Yes, you are right. I have access to engineering mode and I am doing all this stuff inside of it.

 

Great ! I know nothing other than that it can and has been done so I wish you speedy success !!

 

We did it bois!
So there are 3 options that need to be disabled.
Tire pressure monitor system
Tyre pressure mode system
Tyre pressure monitor display (X150 only)

The last one says X150 only, but it's the one that made the amber indicator go away.

 

Well done 👍 great news what can be done, wen u do yor write up as u said can you please state exact software version, where to aquire a good one etc, same wiv the cable u used, as u ibviously have a good combination that works 👍👍 thanks in advance
