Thank you for the guide and tool link it helped me change the old TPMS for my moms car and reprogram the new one so she doesnt have to worry about the tpms alert😊🙏
My Toyota yaris sensor is staying on solid even though my tyres are all inflated properly. If i reset it the light comes back instantly within a minute.
I registered the TPMS sensor before installing into tire first to see if it works and put the sensor in the glove box. Tech stream still doesn’t connect does that mean my new sensor has no battery?
Great video, thank you. Would the cable and sensors mentioned in your video and links on amazon work for a 2008 Lexus GS450h. I need two new sensors. Thanks
@@DIYtimeTRD no. Had a tire shop scan all 4 new tpms sensors. All 4 read but would not relearn. That is after replacing the tpms ecu. Yes a separate ecu for the tpms. Light went off for a few days but came back on. Out of options.
Actually that cheap chinese cable ($25-$40) is useless. It can't write anything to your vehicle because that's a cheap clone of original dealer cable. It can only read information from port and erase errors as a standard Bluetooth scanner.. So you will receive an error: "ID Registration Failed" when you try to write new TPMS IDs..
Thank you so much, I purchased four new ones on line from your link , took them to a friend who owns a tire shop and he did the rest !! Saved me some $$$ 😎💙
The video shows Denso 550-0103 TPMS 315-MHz at about $35 each while the links show generic sensors at $35 for 4. Do you recommend the generic ones as well?
Thank you for adding a link for the tech stream cable and software but there are several vendor offering the cable, can you please share which one you got?. Thank you and congratulation for the excellent video.
I just dissolved the epoxy compound and replaced the battery. In the same way as the processor or memory changes in mobile phones filled with epoxy glue.
Thank You for creating a video that was easy to understand. I had zero issues with shoddy recording, you got straight to the point and made the DIY look way to easy! It actually wasn’t a hard find and fix either. That’s probably why you have ZERO dislikes so far!
@@DIYtimeTRDdo the new Lexus/Toyota's require this registration step? I know that you can choose recalibration thru the instrument cluster then drive above a certain speed for like 10 minutes and the system recalibrates itself?

Thanks for the great video, but I can't help but feel angry about all the terrible gadgetry that inflicts wastes (of money and resources) and anxiety on the unsuspecting users! I just got my rear tyre replaced, costing £86 extra because of this tyre pressure sensor on a 2016 Toyota Auris. As the sensor is INSIDE the tyre, the ordinary DIY person would not be able to take it out anyway. With the software and tools required to register the sensors, I don't even feel comfortable to rotate the tyres! Absolutely awful!
Does the ECU on a 08 Acura TL controls the TPMS? I have an error in yellow reading "CHECK TPMS SYSTEM", and then in white, "SYSTEM FUNCTION ERROR". I had my sensors checked and they are being read as working... but none of the tire pressures are being displayed. Do anyone have any idea what this could be?
Thanks for the video. I am having problems with ebay sensors, after using tech stream to enter the new ID its still showing no signal, n\a. I have read that the new sensors are shipped in a sleep mode (?), and you need the $300 tool to wake them up, is this true? is there any other way to wake them up? I tried waving a magnet at the stem, taking the core out and reinflating. At this point I am getting a used sensor that is "woke" so I know it will work. Can you help me understand more?
My dad told me if I just had the sensors installed the car would roll away the (!) Light but it seems like they need to be programmed since it hasn't turned off, guess I gotta check the numbers on them and register them.
Be careful, there are several compatibility problems with versions of techstream, OBD cables and Microsoft Windows that will not allow you to write data to any ECU. I spent hours being frustrated by this - check for bidirectional or write capabilities before buying.
Really helpful, thank you! Well explained, step by step and clear! Managed to replace the TPMS sensors on my '09 Rav4 with Techstream and finally got rid of that warning light in the dashboard.
I personally like getting OEM. But aftermarket usually work just fine. TPMS is pretty simple system and I haven’t seen that many issues with it, just replacing sensors every 5 years.
Very good video. Toyota talked to me about my pressure sensor they say the price to fix it is $800 😮. So I'm going to buy and install myself. About the software to program the sensor how can I get it or where I have to go? Please 🙏
I had no idea on how to check and see if my TPMS is bad or low on air. Now I know at least one is bad because a while back I had a flat tire must had caused it. Thanks.
I bought some 50 psi tires to go in my Lexus IS250 from 2009 by mistake, the recommended PSI tires are 35. Is there a way to calibrate my TPMS to accept 50 psi? The beeping and check system light is so annoying.
I tried the techstrean (Verson 16.00.023) to register ID many times but the process never finished. Techstream displayed the error: ID Registration failed due to a communication error with the ECU while in Initialization mode. I jumped the TC and CG for 30 seconds and retried but never make it.
This is because you have the read only version of techstream or write is not enabled. Bidirectional is required to write to the TPMS ECU. I had the same problem.
I have a 2011 rav4 sport toyota it's a blinking light so how can I test which tire sensor is it? Will it still show on the dashboard as a solid light since it's an older car?
Lexus ES 350 - what is the tire sequence (location)? In other words - where is tire No. 1 where is tire No. 2 etc...? I understand that No. 5 is the Spare.

They should charge for it. Time is money, even for a few extra minutes. There are always people that will come back and complain if there is a problem and that "free" service you performed ends up costing you. Want it free then do it yourself
If you already changing tires, it only takes 2 min to replace the sensor. My guy didnt charge me extra for it. Plus little favor like that goes a long way.

Hello! sorry to comment something unrelated but i have been following the post on your website for valve cover gaskets, i saw you broke one of the tabs on your spark plug connector, how did you end up fixing that? (I broke four :/ ) hopefully no soldering involved!
If you have a bad TPMS sensor the light will be on all of the time already so how would taking air out of one tire work to find a fault? Maybe I'm missing something. Otherwise great video.
In my car with flat tire - light is always on and I get “Low pressure” warning. Bad sensor - light flashing, no “Low pressure” warning. If you deflate one tire at a time, and get “low pressure” that wheel is good. No warning - sensor is dead.
My car didn't have the low pressure warning either. I have an OBCD2 scanner that says the LH sensor fault. Tpms flashes on startup then stays on solid.
Between $150 and $200 PER WHEEL (includes sensor) where I am located, and that is not the stealership either. Fuck that, I bought five new Denso sensors for my Toyota for around $170 and did the job properly myself. And used the money I saved to buy me some nice new tools so I could perform even more service work myself in the future, saving even more money down the line.
Awesome, thats exactly how I approach DIY repairs. Even if I break even in the end, I still end up with more knowledge and new toys.. (I meant tools... 😁)! Most of the times I end up with new toys and saved money! 😜
I installed 4 tires on a Lexus nx and now the light is on. I checked the screen and all 4 sensors read nothing. I’m pretty confident I didn’t break any of the sensors. What’s going on here?
(When registering) Does the input order of the serial numbers even matter? I ask because my Scion Tc recommends 32 psi for the front tires, and 29 psi for the rear ones. Or is 32 psi basically the default for both the front&rear tires?
I bought a set of wheels with 2019 Tacoma sensors and my truck is a 2019 4Runner, the light is on, would eventually reprogram themselves since they're the new type from Toyota? Or o have to reprogram them?
what a nightmare ... to change the TMPS battery or replace a faulty TMPS you have to remove the tyre !! What a waste of time & money. WHAT A STUPID IDEA PUTTING THE SENSORS INSIDE THE TYRE !
I bought the same cable to use with TIS, i have try to program tpms sensor and i got this error. (Terminate initialization by connecting the TC and CG of the DLC3 for 30 seconds) any ideas....
The same sh1t with my cable. Because those cheap chinese cables can't write information. It can only read and erase errors like a regular Bluetooth scanner. I tried 3 different versions of Techstream.. still doesn't work.
Does it matter if you have after market rims and tires?? I will probably have a shop put them in for me After alignment and rotation. However they are not the stock rims and tires. Thanks
Good video. One question. I have a 08 lexis es350 and my car has a full spare wheel with tpms sensor. I plan to change them all but do I have to change the spare too? Can no I just do 4 tires and not all 5?
Is it interchangeable 315 and 433 frequencies!? I installed acdelco 315 mhz on my 2019 camry, yet icant do the relearning. Tpms devise can’t sense the sensor !
If i dont have the tools to do it myself would it still be a good idea to buy them myself and take them with me to the mechanic the next time i get new/rotate my tires?
It’s a good idea, but Keep in mind because they didn’t buy them, it won’t be under warranty. Anything a mechanic buys for your car comes with some kind of warranty. If you buy it, it’s up to you to get the warranty honored. It could also mean extra steps to get your car fixed.
So I mounted the sensors on wheels, now I have to disassemble them to write down their series and then I mount them again for vulcanization and then I pair them ?!
You would have to eyeball tires every single time before driving. Once I got a nail and tire slowly deflated 100% overnight. Started the car and got a warning. If I didn't notice that I would destroy the tire and possibly the rim.
I connected a scanner to the ECU and it reads that sensor 2 is faulty but I don’t know which one is sensor 2? Is that a right front tyre or? All four tyre pressure is the same. Thanks
There is no way to tell which one is it. You can rotate tires however you want, but that wont change sensor IDs in the ECU. You can try the trick with deflating one tire at a time and checking which sensor ID has lowered pressure reading.

Just another thing to milk your pockets. If you check your tire pressure monthly and eyeball before you get in regularly, you don’t need a sensor.
You would have to eyeball tires every single time before driving. Once I got a nail and tire slowly deflated 100% overnight. Started the car and got a warning. If I didn't notice that I would destroy the tire and possibly the rim.
Torque setting for sensor mount?
Is Techstream available for Windows 10 yet? Had to fire up a 20 year old laptop to get it to work last time lol.
Yes, if you have a 64-bit cable.
I felt good when you mentioned they won’t charge for mounting a new sensor. 👍
Love you you doing this nicely I can easily learn replace tmps sensor and tmps how install in your car softer by Tis apps
Glad to help

Thank you for the video❤
Благодарю! Нужная информация!👍
Vsegda rad pomoch!
I connected a scanner to the ECU and it reads that sensor 2 is faulty but I don’t know which one is sensor 2? Is that a right front tyre or? All four tyre pressure is the same. Thanks
There is no way to tell which one is it. You can rotate tires however you want, but that wont change sensor IDs in the ECU. You can try the trick with deflating one tire at a time and checking which sensor ID has lowered pressure reading.
thank you!!
