Understanding the RDE077V21 Sensor
The BH-Sens RDE077V21 is a clamp-in TPMS sensor manufactured by Baolong Technology (one of China’s largest OE TPMS suppliers). Operating at 433MHz, it’s designed to replace sensors originally fitted to vehicles from Aston Martin, BMW, Maybach, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, and – crucially – Jaguar’s E-PACE line.
Key specs:
- Frequency: 433MHz
- Type: Clamp-in (metal valve stem), pre-programmed
- OE cross-references: 36106872774, 42607WAA02, 5A3DC0401, 687793602, 687793604, 6877937, 688714701, A0009052102, A0009054104, A0009057205
If your E-PACE has one of these OE numbers stamped on the sensor housing, the RDE077V21 is a direct replacement. No reprogramming is needed if your vehicle uses auto-learn or OBD relearn.
E-PACE TPMS Compatibility Overview
The Jaguar E-PACE (2017–present) uses a 433MHz TPMS system that shares its protocol with many Mercedes-Benz and BMW models. This is not accidental – Jaguar Land Rover sources TPMS components from the same Tier-1 suppliers (like Baolong and Schrader) used by German automakers.
| Model Year | TPMS Frequency | Compatible OE Numbers (E-PACE) | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2017–2019 | 433MHz | 36106872774, 687793604 | Early production; check for gray plastic housing |
| 2020–2022 | 433MHz | A0009054104, A0009057205 | Updated sensor shape, same protocol |
| 2023+ | 433MHz | 5A3DC0401, 42607WAA02 | May require OBD relearn after replacement |
Important: While the frequency is consistent, Jaguar occasionally changed the sensor’s appearance and internal programming across model years. Always match the OE number, not just the frequency.
How to Verify Fitment Before Buying
Don’t rely solely on “fits E-PACE” listings. Follow this checklist to confirm the RDE077V21 will work on your specific Jaguar:
Step 1: Locate the OE Number on Your Current Sensor
The OE number is stamped on the side of the sensor body. You can see it without removing the tire if you have a TPMS scan tool that reads sensor IDs – but the easiest method is to check the sensor when tires are replaced or rotated.
Step 2: Match Your Sensor’s OE Number to the List Above
If your sensor’s OE number appears in the table, the RDE077V21 is plug-and-play. If it’s not listed but your sensor is 433MHz, it may still work – but test it first.
Step 3: Use a TPMS Scan Tool (Recommended)
A cheap TPMS tool (like the Autel TS508 or Bartec Tech400) can read your current sensor’s frequency, protocol, and ID. If it shows 433MHz and a known protocol (like Schrader 33 or Continental/VDO), the RDE077V21 will pair correctly.
Step 4: Confirm Relearn Method
E-PACE models after 2018 typically use OBD relearn. If your Jaguar requires a specific relearn procedure (e.g., driving above 20 mph for 10 minutes), the RDE077V21 will automatically transmit after installation. No manual programming is needed.
Why the RDE077V21 Works on E-PACE
The RDE077V21 is pre-programmed to mimic the communication protocol used by Jaguar’s OE TPMS system. It transmits pressure and temperature data at 433MHz using the same data packet structure as the original Mercedes/BMW sensors. Because Jaguar Land Rover and Mercedes-Benz share this protocol, the sensor “speaks” the same language as your E-PACE’s TPMS receiver module.
Common pitfalls to avoid:
- Don’t buy 315MHz sensors – E-PACE never used 315MHz.
- Don’t assume “universal” fits all – Some universal sensors require cloning, which the RDE077V21 does not.
- Don’t skip the relearn step – Even if the sensor transmits correctly, the vehicle needs to register the new sensor IDs via OBD or auto-learn.
Recommended Part
For Jaguar E-PACE owners looking for a reliable, cost-effective replacement, the RDE077V21 | BH-Sens 433MHz TPMS Tire Pressure Sensor | Fits Aston Martin, BMW, Maybach, Mercedes-Benz, Mini & 2 More | OE# 36106872774, 42607WAA02, 5A3DC0401 is a solid choice. It’s built by Baolong, one of the largest OE TPMS manufacturers worldwide, and covers the most common E-PACE OE numbers from 2017 to 2024.
If your E-PACE uses OE numbers like 36106872774, A0009054104, or 42607WAA02, this sensor will install without any adapter or reprogramming tool. Just make sure you perform the relearn procedure after fitting.
FAQ
Will the RDE077V21 work on my 2019 Jaguar E-PACE without reprogramming?
Yes, if your vehicle uses 433MHz TPMS and your sensor’s OE number matches one listed above. The sensor is pre-programmed and will auto-transmit once installed. You still need to perform a relearn (OBD or drive cycle) so the car recognizes the new sensor IDs.
How do I know if my E-PACE uses 433MHz or 315MHz TPMS?
All Jaguar E-PACE models from 2017 onward use 433MHz. If you have an imported or older model (unlikely for E-PACE), check the sticker on the driver’s door jamb or inside the fuel filler flap – it lists the TPMS frequency. You can also read the sensor directly with a $30 TPMS scan tool.
Can I install this sensor myself, or do I need a shop?
You can install it yourself if you have a tire machine to mount the clamp-in sensor and a tool to torque the valve stem nut to the correct spec (typically 4–5 Nm). For the relearn, you’ll need an OBD tool or follow the drive cycle procedure in your owner’s manual. Many owners opt for a tire shop to handle both.
What if my E-PACE has a different OE number not listed?
If your sensor’s OE number is not in the table, it may still be compatible if it’s a 433MHz sensor from the same family (e.g., Baolong or Schrader). Contact the seller with your OE number to confirm. If your sensor is from a different brand (like VDO or Huf), the RDE077V21 will not work without reprogramming.
