How to Perform TPMS Relearn on a Zeekr: Auto, OBD, and Stationary Procedures

Quick AnswerTPMS relearn on a Zeekr models (including Zeekr 001, 009, and X) is required after tire rotation, sensor replacement, or battery change. The preferred method is the OBD relearn using a compatible TPMS tool, but a stationary relearn (using a magnetic trigger) works for many 2021+ vehicles. Always confirm your Zeekr’s model year and system type before starting — most 2022+ models use the 433MHz Baolong system.

Understanding Zeekr TPMS Systems

{Zeekr} (also written as Zeekr) is a premium electric vehicle brand under Geely Holding Group, sharing platforms with Lynk & Co and Geely Galaxy. All Zeekr models currently use a direct TPMS system with clamp-in sensors mounted inside the wheel. These sensors transmit tire pressure and temperature data via a 433MHz RF signal.

The key difference between Zeekr and many other brands is that Zeekr uses Baolong Technology sensors — specifically the 433MHz variant that is pre-programmed with OE data. This means you cannot use generic universal sensors; you need sensors that match the original part numbers 6608082005 or 8894215959.

If you’re replacing a sensor, make sure you get a pre-programmed unit like the BL-ST-050 | BH-Sens 433MHz TPMS Tire Pressure Sensor | Fits Geelygalaxy, Lynk&Co, Zeekr | OE# 6608082005, 8894215959. It clones the factory ID and is plug-and-play for Zeekr models.

Relearn Methods Overview

Zeekr supports three relearn methods, but not all are available on every model year:

Method Best For Tools Needed Time
Auto Relearn Vehicles driven on highway after sensor swap None (just driving) 15–30 minutes at 25+ mph
OBD Relearn Quickest and most reliable TPMS programming tool (e.g., Autel TS508, ATEQ VT56) 1–3 minutes
Stationary Relearn When OBD tool isn’t available TPMS trigger tool (magnetic or LF) 3–5 minutes per sensor

Important: Zeekr does NOT support the old-school “deflate/inflate” stationary relearn common on some Asian brands. The stationary method here requires a low-frequency (LF) activations tool.

Method 1: OBD Relearn (Recommended)

This is the fastest and most reliable method. Works on all Zeekr models from 2021 onward.

Tools Needed

Step-by-Step

  • Connect the TPMS tool to the vehicle’s OBD-II port (located under the dashboard, driver side).
  • Turn the ignition ON — do not start the engine. For fully electric Zeekr models, press the START button without the brake pedal.
  • Select the vehicle make on the tool: choose Geely (Zeekr is listed under Geely in most tools) or directly Zeekr if your tool has it.
  • Select model year and model — Zeekr 001, 009, or X. If your tool doesn’t list Zeekr separately, use Lynk & Co or Geely Galaxy as the platform is shared.
  • Choose “Relearn” or “Program” function.
  • The tool will read the existing sensor IDs. If you installed new sensors, trigger each sensor with the tool’s LF activation function (usually a button that says “Activate” or “Trigger”).
  • Follow tool prompts — most tools will automatically write new IDs to the ECU.
  • Verify — the tool will display “Relearn Complete” and show pressure readings for all four tires.
  • Disconnect tool, start the vehicle, and check that no TPMS warning light remains.

Pro tip: If the tool fails to communicate, try selecting Geely Monjaro or Geometry — some Zeekr models use the same TPMS module.

Method 2: Stationary Relearn (Using LF Trigger)

Use this method if you don’t have an OBD tool but own a TPMS trigger tool (like the ATEQ VT56 trigger wand or a magnetic trigger for 433MHz sensors).

Tools Needed

  • LF trigger tool (e.g., ATEQ VT56 trigger, Bartec 400SD)
  • Or a strong neodymium magnet (rare-earth magnet) — works on some Zeekr models

Step-by-Step

  • Turn the vehicle OFF and ensure all doors are closed.
  • Place the LF trigger tool against the tire sidewall, near the valve stem (where the TPMS sensor is located).
  • Press the trigger button for 2–3 seconds. You should hear a beep or see a flash from the tool, confirming the sensor activated.
  • Repeat for each tire in this order: LF (driver front) → RF (passenger front) → RR (passenger rear) → LR (driver rear).
  • After all four sensors are triggered, start the vehicle.
  • Drive for 1–2 minutes at low speed (under 10 mph). The TPMS light should go out automatically if the relearn succeeded.

Caution: Some 2023+ Zeekr models require a specific LF tool that sends a 125kHz signal. A generic magnet trigger may not work. If the light remains on after driving, switch to the OBD method.

Method 3: Auto Relearn

This is a passive method that happens when you drive. It only works if the sensors are already paired (i.e., you only rotated tires or replaced a sensor with an identical pre-programmed unit).

What to Do

  • After sensor replacement or tire rotation, drive the vehicle above 25 mph (40 km/h) continuously for 15–30 minutes.
  • The vehicle’s ECU will automatically detect the new positions based on signal strength and wheel rotational data.
  • No tools or button presses required.

Limitations

  • Does not work if you installed new sensors with different IDs (they must be pre-programmed to the original IDs).
  • Can take up to 3 driving cycles to complete.
  • Not reliable on Zeekr models older than 2021.

When to Perform a Relearn

  • After any TPMS sensor replacement — even if using a pre-programmed sensor, the vehicle must learn the sensor’s position.
  • After tire rotation — if your Zeekr does not have auto-location, the system will show incorrect pressure for each wheel without a relearn.
  • After battery replacement in the sensor — only applicable if your sensor has a replaceable battery (most Baolong sensors are sealed).
  • After ECU or TPMS module replacement — requires a full OBD relearn.

Choosing the Right Replacement Sensor

If you’re buying a TPMS sensor for your Zeekr, the most important things to check are:

Specification Requirement
Frequency 433MHz
Protocol Baolong (not Schrader or Continental)
Part Number 6608082005 or 8894215959
Type Clamp-in (not snap-in)
Programming Pre-programmed (cloneable)

The BL-ST-050 | BH-Sens 433MHz TPMS Tire Pressure Sensor | Fits Geelygalaxy, Lynk&Co, Zeekr | OE# 6608082005, 8894215959 meets all these criteria and is the recommended direct replacement for Zeekr models built after 2021. It fits the Geely Galaxy, Lynk & Co 01/05/09, and Zeekr 001/009/X.

FAQ

Can I use a universal TPMS sensor on my Zeekr?

No. Zeekr uses Baolong-specific protocol that universal sensors cannot replicate. You must use a sensor that matches the original OE numbers 6608082005 or 8894215959, or a pre-programmed clone like the BH-Sens BL-ST-050.

Why does my Zeekr TPMS light stay on after a tire rotation?

The vehicle has not learned the new sensor positions. Perform a stationary relearn with an LF trigger tool, or use an OBD TPMS tool to initialize the process. On some models, driving above 25 mph for 20–30 minutes will auto-relearn.

Do I need a special tool for Zeekr TPMS relearn?

A standard TPMS tool that supports Geely/Lynk & Co brands will work. The Autel TS508 or ATEQ VT56 are common choices. For stationary relearn, you need an LF trigger tool — a generic magnet may not work on 2023+ models.

How long does a TPMS sensor battery last on a Zeekr?

Baolong TPMS sensors have a battery life of 5–7 years, depending on driving conditions. When the battery dies, the entire sensor must be replaced — the battery is sealed inside the unit.
