If so, will the current sensors interfere with this process if they are still installed in the tires?

Ideally, I would like them to do the autocrate process and the relearn process with the Autel sensors just sitting on top of the tires and the current sensors in place inside the tire. This way, they'll know the Autel sensors will work and can then dismount the tires from the rim, take out the current sensors and install the newly programmed Autel sensors.

So, based on your previous recommendations, I suggested they deflate all the tires to zero PSI and perform the autocreate process with the existing sensors. I also sent them a link to this discussion.

Any other suggestions?
