Understanding the BL-ST-037 Sensor Specifications
The BH-Sens BL-ST-037 operates at 433MHz, the most common frequency for North American and Asian TPMS systems. It is a clamp-in type sensor, meaning it uses a metal nut and threaded stem, typical for aluminum wheels. It comes pre-programmed, so no cloning or relearn tool is required for vehicles that accept its programmable ID.

Does This Sensor Fit SAVANA?
The short answer: Possibly, but only if your SAVANA was built on a platform that uses a Fukang or Honda-derived sensor system. Many GM full-size vans (including the SAVANA) use a 433MHz TPMS sensor from different suppliers. However, the BL-ST-037 is not listed as a direct SAVANA fitment. Its OE numbers (4275333W, ZQ01162780) are not standard GM van part numbers.
What you must check before buying:
- Remove your current sensor and read the stamped OE number. If it matches 4275333W or ZQ01162780, this sensor will work.
- Verify the valve stem type – your SAVANA likely uses a clamp-in sensor. If your vehicle uses a snap-in (rubber stem) sensor, the BL-ST-037 will not fit.
- Check the production year – SAVANA models from 2008–2014 often use a different sensor (315MHz or 433MHz). Use a TPMS scan tool or check the service manual for the exact frequency.
How to Verify Fitment Without a Scan Tool
If you don’t have a TPMS tool, follow these steps:
- Locate the sensor inside the tire – It is attached to the valve stem. Look for a manufacturer logo or part number stamped on the metal body.
- Match the OE number – Write down the 8–10 digit code. Search it against BL-ST-037’s cross references.
- Count the valve stem threads – Clamp-in sensors for GM vans typically have a 10mm thread pitch. The BL-ST-037 uses a standard 11mm hex nut – confirm this is identical to your original.
Recommended Part
If your SAVANA’s sensor matches either OE# 4275333W or ZQ01162780, the BL-ST-037 | BH-Sens 433MHz TPMS Tire Pressure Sensor | Fits Fukang, Honda | OE# 4275333W, ZQ01162780 is a reliable, pre-programmed replacement. It eliminates the need for a separate relearn tool and saves time over programmable universal sensors.
FAQ
Can I use the BL-ST-037 on a 2010 SAVANA 2500?
Only if your original sensor has OE# 4275333W or ZQ01162780. Many 2010 SAVANAs use a Delphi or Huf sensor with different part numbers. Check the sensor first.
Does this sensor require programming?
No. The BL-ST-037 is pre-programmed with a fixed ID. It is a “plug-and-play” replacement for vehicles that accept its specific ID. If your SAVANA requires a new ID to be learned, you may need a relearn tool.
What if my SAVANA uses a 315MHz system?
This sensor operates at 433MHz only. If your vehicle uses 315MHz, it will not communicate with the TPMS module. Confirm frequency by checking the label on your current sensor or using a multimeter-capable TPMS tool.
Is the BL-ST-037 compatible with aftermarket wheels?
Yes, as long as the wheels accept a clamp-in sensor with a standard 11mm hex nut. Aftermarket wheels with deeper valve stem holes may require a different sensor or an adapter.
