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
- A TPMS diagnostic tool that supports Zeekr/Baolong protocols (Autel TS508, Autel MX808, ATEQ VT56, or any tool with “Geely/Zeekr” TPMS coverage)
- BL-ST-050 | BH-Sens 433MHz TPMS Tire Pressure Sensor | Fits Geelygalaxy, Lynk&Co, Zeekr | OE# 6608082005, 8894215959 installed (if replacing sensors)
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.
