- A Toyota master diagnostic technician shares all you need to know about Tire Pressure Monitor system for Toyota.
In this video I will cover all the basics about the hated or loved Tire pressure monitoring system on Toyota Lexus and Scions.
I will go over how the system works using the receiver. I will also cover the different types of this system both Direct and Indirect. I will go into the sensor details including their common problems, the TPMS fit kit and Toyota tire pressure sensor programing.
I will also cover one of the most misunderstood buttons, The reset button for the tire light.
This guide covers all Toyota models from 2005 to current models. It also applies to Lexus and Scion models.
Common trouble codes for this system are B1247 C2111 C2121 C2126 C2141 C2171 C2176 C2177 C2179 C2198

I work for a big chain auto parts store and I always recommend buying the tire pressure sensor from the dealership because I know the aftermarket ones we sell are junk so my customers appreciate that I'm honest about them. I bought a 2018 Highlander XLE in 2020 and the first winter with it the light came on, I always keep a gauge in my vehicle so I checked the tire pressure of all four tires and had two low ones, I added pressure and the light hasn't come back on since. As someone who's been in the automotive business for 38 years in a few different aspects of it I think you are doing a great service educating people about their cars different systems. Thank you and keep making these videos I have learned a lot of information that I can pass on to my customers.
When 3 tire shops fail goto TH-cam! This guy mentions if everything is good but the light is still on drop all your tires down to 10psi or less then refill the tires this will clear the system and reset it. AND IT WORKED! if the light turns back on I will take it back to lexus and update this post.
My Toyota dealer in Wallingford , CT wanted over 8 hundred dollars to replace just 4 sensors. Outrageous.
This is the reason nobody likes dealers. Greed
$850 plus tax here in Naples Fl and this guy runs his own shop and said it was cheaper than the dealer...OMG
Buy your own and ask how much it cost to put them on
@@legofnafnas Some shops won't install customer supplied parts
He said it only reads if the tire is spinning. If you replace without programming new ones, will light stay out?
I love the way he points out that life is good when there’s no trouble with the car. I can’t agree more
I totally agree. I subscribe to the "If it's got tits or tires there's going to be trouble"..
Lmao I was wondering if someone noticed the life is good comment. I love that line from him hahah
A piece of black tape properly applied over the light works great.
I did exactly the same, thanks for posting
I did just that for years in my 2006 Tacoma. ... simple fix. 👍
I just ignore them when I install my winter rims without sensors
What is the right pressure on a toyota yaris hybrid 2018
I did this with my Ford Mondeo here in Finland where winters are long and cold, Ford decided that it is a good idea to give a RED warning light in the dials when temperature goes below -4c. Not fun to look at that for 4-5months per year... Usually red light means that something is terribly wrong
A very comprehensive tutorial. The Care Car Nut is the Christmas gift that keeps on giving the whole year long. Thanks for everything that you do for the Toyota community.
Almost as good as the jelly of the month club.
Thanks Cousin Eddie💕
@@joyceelmer131 You're welcome. Ed.
Hi Me again. Today my dealer installed 4 original Toyota tpms valves on my sienna 2021 winter wheels. I told them not to do any programming. (all the dealers in Terrebonne Québec Canada region wanted to do some programming and charge me aprx. $40.00) After driving 2 minutes, the tire pressure light, that was always on, started to flash. Aprx. 5 minutes later BINGO. Lights went off. I now have pressure reading on 4 wheels. Thank you again for your videos !! I went back to the dealer to show them that no programming was needed !!!
Awesome! You’d be surprised how many dealerships don’t know about this. And unfortunately some of them pretend like they don’t know
@@TheCarCareNut Hi. Does a list of Toyota vehicule that dont need re-grogramming exist ?
Were they brand new sensors or the original ones from your summer wheels?
I’m sure they know but want to screw us more.
I recently went through this with a local tire shop. They insisted my receiver was bad. 0ne sensor was bad and they tried 3 times (2 different after market sensors) never worked. I told them from the beginning that it has to be programmed at the dealership but they wouldn't listen. Dealership broke down the tire, got the number off the after market sensor, programmed the system, and washed the car all for no charge! 2014 Lexus LS460. I would say great service from the Lexus dealership.
Light is on and stays on , called Toyota and it’s $250 each tire that’s bad , car is 7 years old , tire gauge works great and has for over 50 years, gonna keep using it . Great video, great info , thanks
First had this system on my 08 CRV. I drove it to construction sites for work. This system saved me several times from being stuck on the side of the road. I would come out in the morning and the light would be on and I would have a screw or nail in my tire. Much easier dealing with that at home, then the side of the road. I used an Autel TPMS tool and cloned one of the bad sensors on the CRV, and it worked fine on it. I have it now on my 18 Tundra, and really like being able to see the pressure. Thanks for the tip on the switch.
Oh thank god I finally got the answer I needed. Thank you sir. I have a 2021 corolla SE I plan on buying OEM sensors for a set of separate winter rims from my local Toyota. But I'm taking those OEM tpms's to a tire shop that's not Toyota, and now I know I can just have them installed in the winter rim with new winter tires, bolt on my car and drive away knowing they will learn the new tpms on their own. Excellent!!!
Thanks for the great info!!! Once again I am reminded I made the right decision when I stopped working as a car mechanic 50 years ago. In the 1960s a Formula 1 Ferrari wasn't this complicated!
I knew most of this.. but not all. Very informative video... your videos are valuable to the average shop mechanic as it’s hard to get information out of Toyota... thank you very much.
I offten air down to 10-15 PSI when off pavement. The TPMS light is always on. I can now "reset" the system to a lower PSI. This is gold!
You know what's awesome? I have been auditing my dealership visits for the last 5 years with my RX350, and every item that was done or suggested that I didn't understand I would search TH-cam for and AMD would be at the top of the list with a detailed explanation. I wish I still lived in Chicago so I could take my car to him for all my work, even if I could do it myself. Knowledge is so important, thanks AMD!
Edit: Hilarious that 8 days after this post, one of my original 2008 RX 350 TPMS sensors finally crapped out... damn good run though! Replaced all 5 sensors with confidence, thanks again!
I love your lecture on
TPMS you are a genuine car tech professional, the reason why I was trying to know something about TPMS, because I have Sienna 2015 which gave me hard time.
This is why you ask "why". You are the mechanic i was searching for last March. (10 months, $5700 later Im still having issues w van & mechanics and their work and lack of ethics.) I watch alot of your videos even thought i have a problem Odyssey on my hands. I can understand & can follow you and you have helped me to understand todays cars. Thanks you.😊
Thank you Sir ! You always provide us with super comprehensive tutorial! We really appreciate it.
Very good video. Thank you. On my 2022 Tacoma, I did get the tire shop to clone my winter tire sensors. They’ve been working great. Here in Canada where the tire pressure drops in very cold temperatures, I set my pressures at 36 PSI.
Great explanation on the TPMS system. This man is a Master Mechanic
My 2004 4Runner with 205,000 miles and 17 years are still working fine! Amazing
From a Toyota Technician to another! Brilliant .....and less boring than the actual training course ha ha keep it up buddy
Thanks my brother!
Wow! You are a life saver and so knowledable. Thank you! So my door says 35 but I'm trying to maintain 36 in them. 1 lb over. is all. I just paused the video and ran downstairs and reset my annoying, disconcerting light after my new Cooper tires on my new used 2005 Sienna CE with 150K on it. I'm doing all of your and Scotty Kilmers advice on my nice van and so thankful. I am concerned after I do a tune up and fuel system and engines clean out stuff you guys recommend that I have a transmission problem in 1st gear a bit..
I have a 2008 Honda CRV. The car sits out in extremely cold temperatures and, just recently, the tire light came on. I've had this happen in another CRV too. As soon as the outside temp goes up to around 50-55 degrees the light goes off. It took several days for that to happen but it did. Great commentary. Thanks for the info.
This is gold! Very excited to watch!
Thank you for actually explaining how they work! So many don't!
You absolutely nailed it! I put air in the spare tire (was like 10psi and needed to be at 60psi!). Since your piece was longish and comprehensive I was reluctant at first to check it out. So glad I did watch the entire recording. Thanks again!!
You are the most intelligent technician on the car related TH-cam channels!
I found the ultimate fix for the TPMS light…
I took apart the dash and removed the light! I’ve been driving 35+ years, I know what a low tire feels like and I check pressures regularly.
Good for you. It's a really terrible system because it can't be serviced without removing the tire.
😂
Thanks for this Ahmed. I just drove away from an appointment I had at my local tire shop, Town Fair Tire in Hanover MA. The back story; I got new tires installed there on our 2008 Highlander Sport 6 months ago. At the time I also requested new TPMS sensors to be installed as ours were the original 2008 factory sensors and the light had been coming on and off for a year while my kid had the car at college in PA. Well, they couldn't get the sensors to fit the car that day, so they installed the tires and said come back another time and we'll install the sensors for the cost of the sensor only. We sent our son back to PA after Thanksgiving with his mom's Mazda so I could do some work on the old 'Lander (245,000 miles!), and made the appointment to have the sensors finally installed. Here's what went down: Our full-sized spare tire is the original tire that's been dangling from the bottom of the car since it was built. It's only been used as a spare twice. I asked to have all 4 tire sensors replaced, and asked if the spare also had one. They checked it and said yes it does, but they wouldn't touch it as it was more than 10 years old - their policy. So, I explained "it makes no sense for me to pay you nearly $200 to replace the sensors on my 4 wheels if the one on the spare is dead and still going to trigger the tire light on my gage cluster".... They offered to sell me a new tire for the spare to solve the problem. I said that "a small piece of black electrical tape on the gage cluster will solve that problem for free." They agreed, and off I drove. Crazy!!
I had one sensor go out on because the battery died prematurely, and another go out when a tech broke it when installing new tires. (2015 Nissan Versa-- an emergency replacement car following a flood.) The shop couldn't get a sensor in time (I was sitting in the waiting room for the new tire installation), so they put a rubber stem in and offered to install the new one later for free.
-- Keeping in mind that one sensor battery was already gone, and others would likely follow soon, and that the inflexibility of the metal stems sometimes made it hard to get a gauge or a tire chuck to seat on the TPS stems, I said screw it and just lived with the light on until the next time I needed tires and had all the sensors replaced with rubber stems.
-- For an older car nearing the end of the TPS battery life, the system doesn't make cost/benefit sense for me. And as the car approaches 10 years old, I anticipate getting a new spare tire soon, and I'll get rid of that sensor then, too. When you've had a flat and are running on the spare, you're riding with no spare tire until you get the flat fixed or replaced, so I don't want to be riding on an old, cracked spare in the middle of the night when making a long drive, as I do often.
this guy is a walking library about camrys !!! luv the guy and very grateful for the tips on camrys; i owned a camry LE 2009 and luv it !!!!
Best and most comprehensive video on the TPMS, you have earned a new subscriber !!
Thanks for posting this man, I specifically remember asking a question on another video of yours about this.
I learn something new from this guy everytime, god bless you.
Thanks CCN, I have a 2005 Tundra now I know why the tire dealer never wanted to touch it, and it's been flashing for six years :-)
I have a Highlander Hybrid 2015 and your videos continue to inform, educate, and help me with maintaining my car. Thank you for taking the time to help me and others. What a great channel! And may the Lord also bless you and your loved ones!
This video was very helpful. Thumbs up! I will follow your advice, I’m gonna check air pressure on all four tires at 32 psi, press the magic knob and im pretty sure that will fix the problem. I will let you know. Thanks 🙏.
'05 4Runner here. About 3 years ago, I installed new wheels and new OEM sensors on each (5 with the spare). Had them programmed and worked fine for a couple of months, then the low pressure idiot light came on. Checked all (5) tires for pressure and none had fallen off. Scratched my head and found a way to bypass (via wire jumper) the TPMS so the light would stay off. All has been good with the world since. I'm about to get some new rubber and will have the tire shop replace the sensors with regular, rubber valve stems. Something to consider if you often deflate your tires for better traction in sand/mud/snow. If the shop (Pep Boys) tries to upsell the TPMS service as 'required by law,' I'll remind them the TPMS law was enacted for vehicles manufactured after September 1, 2007. Hope this helps someone.
You are fast becoming my favourite car info man.So good and relaxing.I wish there was someone like you for Mazdas.
Great stuff as always! If makes sense for you too, can you make videos about "rust in general" and "correct tire pressure"? Anything from best practices to things to avoid. Keep up the good work! 👌
Person like you we need honestly God bless you 🙏
Great! I fixed the TPMS sensor issue on my LEXUS ES350 2012 with less than 50k mileage. First I found the RR tire sensor has issue with MaxiTPMS TS401. Following advice in this video, I release air in that tire to below 20psi, then filled air to 31psi.
At first the light was still on, then today after driving, it's gone. Thank you for your video.
Thanks so much for this information. Most people, including myself, don't have very much knowledge about the TPM system. Great video and I clicked the thumbs up button.
This is my second video I have watched from your channel today! Great information and presentation! I just subbed!
So glad I found and subscribed to this guy.
THANK YOU ! finally some useful information !!! this information is WAY more valuable that the other useless videos that just tell you to push the button, but don't tell you anything else about how it works and when to do it, much less what year model car they are referring too and how there are different variations
Great video, TPMS light just started came out from nowhere yesterday. Had the tyres re-filled and gauged at least thrice now but light still persists after blinking for a few minutes.
May have to go see a mechanic. This was a great video to prep myself before going.
Great explanation on the TPMS system. One good tip I picked up, you don’t need to replace ALL at the same time. A tire store recommended to me changing all, plus reprogramming charges, and it was a hefty sum of money. So you do it one at a time then, and to get a genuine sensor, go to a Toyota dealer.
Well, they should charge less to change them when they are installing new tires because the tires are already removed from the rims. If they fail and the tire is good then it cost extra to remove the tire and reinstall it.
True, but just like headlights, if one goes it is probably just a matter of time before the other goes. May as well replace both and be done with it. Of course, with TPMS if one goes I'm not going to worry about it until new tire time.
Just another slush fund for Toyota dealers.
I took my daughter's Toyota in for new tires locally, not the dealer. He thought the hard sell was going to work to get me to bite for aftermarket garbage. Little did he know I worked on CNC equipment throughout my career and I am very mechanically inclined. Finally I laughed at him and sat down, needless to say they did not have a repeat customer in my daughter. Growing up I hung out with the guys who were all motor heads, I find hanging out with the guys the most informative. Y'all are fantastic, never met a guy who wasn't willing to literally give me an education on whatever the issue was whether it was a car, a lathe, or a milling machine. I was the luckiest girl in the world. Thanks guys for being the best!!!
Great info on the set button. I have a 2020 Tacoma and increased tire size and went to LT tires. Stock tires were set to 28. 28 is too low for LT. Set the tires to 35 and pressed the button. Good stuff. Great video again my friend.
The best explanation I’ve found yet! Thanks!
Very educational for me. As always, thanks!
I regularly check my tire pressure, once this light came on l knew some BS was up since l know my tire pressure is within the prescribed amount. l was looking in the fuse box to remove the fuse. No such thing in my case.
Very helpful thanks for the info!
Hi AMD, love your videos and insight into Toyota vehicles and tech. Living in the snow belt, I have two sets of rims for each of my 2010 Corolla S and 2017 Avalon Limited for snow tires. For the Corolla, I bought aftermarket Dorman TPMS sensors from Rock Auto, and for seasonal tire changeovers, I change IDs with the ATEQ Quickset tool, been working without issue since 2014. For the Avalon, I bought Denso TPMS sensors from Rock Auto, and the Quickset tool is supposed to also support the 2017 Avalon but it does not work (tried dealing with ATEQ customer support but they threw their hands up in the end without providing a solution.) For the Avalon, I settled on using the Carista Android app and dongle to change IDs, been working great for past year (including the real time pressure displays on the cluster), only downside is that Carista is a pay to use, but still cheaper than tire shop or dealer. Keep up the good work sir!
I love your sarcasm brother. Nice sense of humor. Thanks again. I'm upgrading to a 2018 avalon limited. From 2014.
I love it when a person knows what they are talkin' about! Thanks for doin!
This is a wonderfully complete explanation! Thanks for providing it. I have a 2006 4Runner with a tpms light that keeps flashing. Would a 2006 4Runner have the indirect system? I thought the flashing light was likely related to my frequently disconnecting the battery, and the need to initialize the tpms as I often have to do with the rear wiper and defogger. Thanks again for the great video.
Excellent information, thanks for making this video. I’m subscribed
Dear Master AMD!
Thank you 🙏
Thank you 🙏
Thank you 🙏
And I can’t thanks enough for the beautiful explanation of the tire monitor BUTTON!
You are my hero!
Thank you. You are very, very helpful to those of us with Toyota’s.
You can never go too deep with this kind of information. Subbed!
Ditto! Me too...subbed!
Me too 7/25/21 Thank you!
I like them. You get a warning before the tire gets so low that you ruin the tire. I can’t remember the last time I changed a tire myself because the system warms me when I first get a nail and the pressure drops. Gives me time to get to Discount Tire and address the issues. Free tire repair vs changing a tire on the side of the highway and then buying a new tire.
Thanks you for all your VERY informative videos CCN! The TPMs has saved me from a serious problems a number of of times over 11 years due to punctures from nails and once a sheet metal screw puncture. For that reason I am glad my 2012 Tacoma SR5 4x4 has it. I replaced my original Dunlops after about 5 years and was asked by the tire store if I wanted new TPMS sensors at that time which I of course declined.
About 6 months ago out of the blue I started getting the flashing TPMS light at startup followed by the steady light, which I learned indicated a system malfunction. Jade been doing regular old school manual pressure gate checks regularly and plan to have a new set of sensors installed to replace the now 11 year old original ones when I have a new set of Michelin LT tires put on in a few months. Mysteriously, after a couple of months, the TPMS started working normally again on its own - no flashing on startup, and no lock in light, I at first thought the TPMS indicator. on the dash had burned out, but it still comes on briefly with all the other indicators on key on. Was surprised to see the system somehow correct itself, I was thinking the failure was most likely due to a dead sensor battery, but who knows?
Couple of questions - when I go
for my next set of tires in a few months, should I also replace the original now 11 year old but otherwise zero wear spare? Does the spare have a TPMS sensor in a 2012 Tacoma? Should it’s 11 year old sensor be replaced along with the others?
I was going to have the tires and sensors replaced by the
dealership that sold me the Tacoma in 2012 when they replaced the trucks frame under the recall program a few months ago, but their price quote for the tires and especially replacement of all the TPMS was ridiculously high relative to quotes I received from two major tire store chains. I just can’t rationalize why I would want to pay so much more to the dealership, and therefore am leaning towards going elsewhere, The main difference in the quotes was the cost of replacing the TPMS sensors, the dealer quote was more than twice that of the major chains, at close to 600
dollars! Maybe I’ll see ii the chain stores can give me a
quite that includes OEM Toyota sensors, can you tell me the manufacturer?
Thanks CCN!

Thank you very for making the video in TPMS. You saved me from buying an after market product.
As always your content is very helpful.
Thank you sir for sharing this info
THE BEST INFORMATIVE VIDEO I HAVE EVER WACHED. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Thanks for the video! I just saw this after I changed to wintertires+steel rims at Canadian Tire. They suggested adding a tire pressure monitor sensor. I'm not sure if they used an aftermarket or not but ill keep watch and update you if I get a problem. I wanted to do it in Toyota but they don't have the generic steel rims which are cheaper than the available alloy rims. I can, however, use the existing rims but I'd rather have dedicated rims for the winter tires.
Had the blinky blink case. I had purchased an original sensor from the stealership and only a week after the sensor was replaced on my 2018 RAV4 the light came on and was blinking when turning on the ignition. Really good info from you sir! Thank1 you! I will take care of this sometime in the not to distant future now that I know what is going on. Could be just another sensor biting the dust for all I know , the pressures are fine and stable for weeks, nothing wrong.
I just replaced all 4 of mine. The most difficult part was breaking the bead on the tire. The originals lasted 11 years. I replaced them with OEM from Rock Auto. $35 each preprogrammed. I put silicone grease on the seals and threads. I finally got to use the Chinese knock off Honda HIM dongle to reset the system.
This is a great video. I never knew anything about this sensor. Thank you. I had it go on a couple times after sitting in a parking lot on a cold less than 32 deg F and wind. I was able to check pressure and get the light off. This happened on 2008 and 2012 Highlanders.
Thank you! Great information, I have a 2008 Scion xB bought it since new. I've been driving with the TPM light on for the last couple years. I think the battery die on one of them. So I think it does last around 10-15 years. I just drive it with the TPM dash light on, it's annoying but it is what it is. I just check it with my tire gauge once a month and filled up the air.
Very thorough explanation and no it’s not too much information. Perfect 👍
Back in 2013 when I had a BRZ (FR-S), which used Toyota's system, I bought 4 new compatible TPMS sensors, shoved them in a home-made PVC-pipe container with a Schrader valve, pressurized it to 40PSI, threw it in the trunk, reprogrammed the car for those sensors using ATEQ tool, and never had to worry about the stupid yellow light while swapping to-and-from my summer wheels.
Now I have a Honda, which uses indirect (wheel-speed based) sensing. And yes, the new indirect sensing WILL detect all 4 wheels loosing pressure at the same rate. Mazda also uses similar system. I think some of the European brands do, also.
The compatible sensors were Huf Intellisens (some German brand), and they all worked fine.
Also, no, I'm not going to buy another car using direct sensors. I'm sticking to indirect sensing cars only.
Great video! Very informative, as always. Thanks for the information about not wasting money on aftermarket pressure sensors! And about the system on my 99 Sienna. I was wondering when the tire pressure sensors were going to need new batteries - No batteries, no transmitters, no pressure sensors, that's genius! 23 years, and it just started acting up for the first time today!
Hi! Your sienna has the indirect system. I would check the pressures and reset it
2008 TPMS reciever replacement is 732.00 at Toyota dealership! BS!
Why do you think after market systems are a waste of money? I got mine for only $25 and it works great. Just screw on 4 special tire caps with a tiny (replaceable!) button battery. So much better than trying to fix the obsolete factory system that would not even give individual tire pressure.
@@DYI I would love to see a link to that product!
@@RichardHowieThey don't call them Stealerships for nothing 😮
I bought Autel TS508 few years ago and had different issue this time when Installing Winter TIRES. I purchased 4 TPMS MX autel sensors , installed them( straight from the box) on 4 wheels pumped up and put wheels on the vehicle. After I had to copy by ODB previous sensors from vehicle ECU into my TS508, then PROGRAM each of the MX sensors one by one outside of the car with TS508 tool as instructed by the tool. All worked out very well even I had no previous experience.
In 2008 I bought a 2005 4Runner. I was chasing TPMS demons for the better half of the first 2 years I had it. Dealers kept telling me there was nothing wrong and kept resetting code (I think they just didn't want to honor my warranty). Finally found a good independent mechanic that sorted it out.
What was the issue? I have an 08 tundra with the undercut system and the light won’t go out. How did they find out what speed sensor went out?
Indirect system
Exelent video tanks for you information
This is the most useful video I've seen about tpms. Thanks a lot
Thank you for your good basic lesson on this issue. Now I can get to a point of why this light has come on. Have a great day.
Thanks for the information. I remember reading Prius forums online a few years ago and the hypermilers were boasting about their MPG's after the overinflated their tires. it seemed to be a serious competition. I visualized them essentially bouncing down the freeway.
Awesome video - another example of a system that frustrates people like me who check there tires and don’t need an expensive system to tell you what to do. People who don’t have a clue about their tires and their pressures cause systems like this to be forced on the masses. I have 16 and an 04 Highlander - direct and indirect systems. I disagree with your assessment of indirect because the cases you describe aren’t realistic cases. Indirect is nice because it uses existing information and will warn of a low pressure. That’s it. No expensive sensors etc. I prefer it much more than my 16 HL. At some point people need to be responsible for doing something when it comes to maintenance. Same thing with other systems in cars. No one knows how to drive anymore because the car is telling them everything. Too much reliance on systems doing it all for you. Thanks for the video. Good job. PS did not talk much about spares and how they fit in the system. Some have 60 psi tires so curious how system treats them
Hi. The spare tires that are at 60 psi that do have a sensor will be programmed to work with the 60 psi pressure. However most of the models that have a sensor for the spare will have a full size tire which has normal pressure
Very comprehensive explanation of everything. Kudos!
Thank you for this very helpful and thorough/patient presentation.
LOVE it!
Since I own a Camry you’re the only mechanic I trust and follow 💪👍, right now I have an issue of that nature on my car 🤔🤨
I had a tire sensor go bad on my 2013 Ford Edge, my tire shop has the equipment to reprogram the sensors. Even if you rotate the tires you have to reprogram the sensors so the car knows which tire is low. They gave me the choice of oem or after market. I went with the oem even though it doubled the cost. Very good video, I now know how they work.
Great information. Do you have a video on how to reset the maintenance do soon? I change my own oil every 5,000 miles on my 2018,2014 Rav4 "s.l am so glad I found this channel.
I’ll make one for different models. It’s on the list.
Great tips! Thanks. Loved the "welcome to the 21st century" comment.
Thank you..your information is amazing for a mechanically minded newbie like myself...!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. God Bless you.
After watching this video I am happy that my car has the most inexpensive form of TPMS. I check them as needed with an old school tire gauge and add air if needed from my own compressor which is usually when the weather turns colder in the winter.
I always ignore the TPMS. Always used a good gauge and checked regularly. Every day when i go to my vehicle i visually inspect the tires to see if they look low or have a nail or screw in them.
Thanks my man,you have a sub👍
Good information. The reset button explanation was something I didn't know. TY.
Truly “everything you need to know” Great video , thanks
The new generation Camry tire pressure monitors work well and are easy to read.. you just go to the settings scroll down to the picture of your car click on it and it spins around and shows the tire pressure of each tire.
@@captar1 Hey man you are right !! I used voice text at the time .. I said one thing and it typed something else ... I just corrected it ..It had me wondering what I said as well? ?😂
Thanks for making this, so much to learn and its always changing. I've always thought that doctors work on people and the human body is the same model for thousands of years so it doesn't change, seems like they would have it figured out by now! Cars on the other hand are constantly evolving and it requires continuous education to keep up with the changes, bottom line mechanics need to be very smart.
Great video, thank you for sharing. Wife just got a 2019 RAV4
So helpful! Exactly the info I was looking for. Subscribed.
Tyre pressure is one of the most important safety measures under the control of the owner!
It very much worth both the effort of using and the cost of maintaining.
Saved me a couple of times.
No down side issues for me.
Always used to check actual pressures adequate before trips.
Rely on alarms mostly but also check at least monthly the actual pressure readings.
It's not a down side to crawl around in the snow, ten degrees below zero, frozen fingers, checking and adjusting tire pressure just because one was at 36psi while the others are at 33? I'll just look at them, kick them, and get on with life, as I have for fifty years! The sensors would be useful if they only came on with a major difference (like ten psi), but two or three psi difference is ridiculous. Also, as some have pointed out, a lot of folks swap out rims with winter tires that don't have the sensors, so the light is on all winter. It would be better if the sensors were on the axle, as in some Hondas.
@@alansach8437 Agree. When the batteries wear out on my Camry I’ll cover the light with electrical tape and put a reminder on my phone to check pressure every week or two.
Check weekly and rempve sensors, waste of money
I disagree, I drove 30 years without it no problem. Stupid system for stupid people in my view.
@@oldskaterDanI'll also put electric tape later. It's annoying that I check tire pressure monthly and still get this error.
Thanks a lot for this video, great explanation. On 2012 Camry LE tire display would show the "exact" pressure for each tire. On 2019 RAV4 LE I don't have that option, not even from Toyota app. Is that understandable?
Thank your for watching my video! Toyota takes and adds options sometimes.
Great vid! I had snow tires put on our '13 Tacoma and '17 Highlander, including new wheels and sensors (third party/after market, probably). I kept scratching my head why the tire pressure light came on periodically, with all pressures nominal, now I know. I'll just keep monitoring the pressures by hand weekly, until we switch back to summer tires. Looks like it'd be too much of a can 'o worms to fix properly, 8 OEM sensors/labor, etc. Ugh! Thanks!
Loved this video. Just got a 2021 sienna and bought winter tires for it. Went to dealer to buy tpms and now i know i dont need to reprogram it everytime i swap it. Just need to drive it a couple of miles.
