Schrader EZ-Sensor and EZ-Sensor Go Comparison
TPMS Today

TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) is a key safety feature in today's vehicles and has been mandatory in new cars since 2008. Not only does constantly monitoring tire pressure through the use of sensors help to maintain the tire pressure of a vehicle, but it leads to safer roadways by helping to prevent accidents caused by underinflated tires by alerting the driver, as well as makes vehicles more fuel efficient and extends the life of a tire.

Schrader EZ-Sensors
 Two of the most popular TPMS sensors on the market are the Schrader EZ-Sensor and their newer model, the Schrader EZ-Sensor Go. Schrader’s family of sensors cover over 100 million TPMS-enabled vehicles in North America, and launched the industry’s first patented, fully programmable TPMS sensor that is compatible with TPMS installation, relearn, and verification functions. 
 

One of the biggest wins of the Schrader EZ-Sensor is its  compatibility with all major TPMS programming devices on the market. That means you can use your existing TPMS tool on the Schrader EZ line of sensors. The sensors can also be fit with a variety of stem options to allow for unique rim fitment. 

 

All of this is valuable  information to know when selecting which brand of sensor you should use. However, it’s no secret that the EZ-Sensor GO is more expensive than its predecessor. The question you may be asking is if it’s worth the additional cost and why. 

 

Let’s compare where the sensors align, and where the EZ-Sensor Go really shines.

Comparing the Differences

One of the key advantages of the EZ-Sensor Go is that it comes pre-programmed for 44% of vehicles in operation. That means it can be installed and ready to go without any additional programming.This sensor can also easily be programmed for vehicles not included in the preprogrammed settings.

 

The Schrader EZ-Sensor GO is compatible with a replacement rubber snap-in valve, aluminum valve stem, and also the black anodized aluminum valve stem, which makes this sensor option compatible with almost any type of rim on the market. 

 

If you feel the need for speed, then the EZ-Sensor GO is for you. Not only does it outperform its predecessor in a side-by-side programming comparison of a single sensor, but the additional benefit of the parallel programming allows you to program 2 or 4 sensors at once in just 3-5 seconds.
 

While both the Schrader EZ-Sensor and EZ-Sensor GO have significant cost savings by reducing your need for multiple types of sensors and the ability to use almost any TPMS tool in the market, the additional versatility and time-saving benefits of the Schrader EZ-Sensor Go make this our premium choice for TPMS sensors.
