TOYOTA TPMS REPLACE & REGISTRATION

Installing a new tire pressure sensor & registering to ECU on a Toyota Highlander.

Best KZbin videos out there are the ones where you show a variety of encounters with challenges and/or irregularities and how they're overcome. Do this for your channel and you'll grow exponentially as all these other channels are constantly capturing these unrealistic best-case-scenario tutorials.

I loved that Bead breaker tool!! I'm getting it ASAP!!

[@jtr990]

Good job on the fix. As for the why the TS408 picked up the 9-digit number on the tool, my guess is that it was left in the decimal format, as opposed to the 7-digit hexadecimal format written on the TPMS sensors themselves.

[@raincitywrench117]

Nice guess, you may be correct.

[@walter.bellini]

One of the best full 360 video about TPMS replacement using Autel TPMS tool for scanning and Autel MaxiSYS Scantool to register direct via OBD with new ID. Plus the cherry on the sundae was the use of the Beadbuster 455 tool that I have been looking for. Fantastic 100%, everything I needed! I am just curious why you didn’t go for the Beadbuster 452 so that you have two pieces to accommodate more curved rims, have you had any issues using the 455, has it worked well on all the rims you used it on. Curious question as well the Autel Company also sells their own TPMS Sensors, you are saying that you can’t use them on the Toyota Highlander or on all Toyota’s? Really perfect video from beginning to end, thank you.

[@568843daw]

Great video. Toyota advises that when you change the TPMS that you do not reuse the existing “fitting kit” hardware, but replace it with a new “Fitting Kit”. It avoids any possible problems of a future leak. Just say’n.

[@Bill-ts9zv]

Easy fix, way to go.

[@stevetotaro3219]

That bead breaker certainly is easier than taking the tire off the car and jumping on it with 2 x 4. I did that and wound up falling down onto a steel rim.

Great video. Thank you. Do you know if tire shops usually have the reprogrammer or typically the dealer?

[@raincitywrench117]

I would bet most tire shops will have programmers

[@timgibbons5779]

Thanks for the informative video, I have the OEM sensor but I'm struggling to find a tire shop that can reprogram it unless it's a universal sensor... not OEM, is my only option going to Toyota?

[@raincitywrench117]

If you have an OEM sensor then it's already programmed. The sensor identification number on the new part needs to be recorded before installing and then registered into the ECU. Any qualified independent auto repair facility, tire shop or dealership will be able to fix you up. Almost any shop should have at least one of these tools to complete registration: Bosch, Autel, Snap-On, Techstream, etc

[@donniev8181]

The Autel tpms sensors are a more economical solution, they can be cloned to match the existing sensor. You can get 4 of the Autel sensors for just about what you eould pay for 1 of the OEM sensors.

[@MrJasinki]

Just bought new sensors for new wheels. Got a "fit kit" to go with my new toyota sensors. Fit kit contains a silver metal washer, and a black rubber grommet. Does the black rubber grommet go on first? Against the outside of the wheel... and then the silver washer and then nut? I seen you did not use a rubber grommet thing on the outside and just the silver metal washer.

[@raincitywrench117]

The rubber seal will sandwich between the valve stem and the wheel on the inside, just the washer and nut go on the outside of the wheel. You can barely see the black seal is already on the valve stem that I pulled out of the package so just slide your new seals onto the valve stems before installing into the wheels.

[@vergelgrepo6109]

Hello great Video. So if my TMPS sensor only has an ID with 6 characters I just add a 0 in the beginning? Also are they all just 7 characters or can some TPMS sensors have more than 7 characters? I have a Toyota Corolla that the ID for the 3 working ones are only showing 6 characters in the Autel MS 906 live data. so just wondering if this is normal. Also will be doing it with the Autel MS906

[@raincitywrench117]

I have only seen sensors with 7 digits. The new sensor had 7 characters but did have one sensor registered that only had 6. I had to enter a 0 in front of the number and it worked. Entering the 6 characters without a 0 in front did not work. I installed a set of amazon sensors in a Toyota before and none of them worked. Got four oem Toyota tpms sensors and they worked perfect. Go figure?

[@sowhat-idgafk2151]

Thank you for the video I have a question I'm a female so I don't have all these Gadgets in my garage so do I really need to take my Highlander to the shop or can I go ahead and try and do it myself and how much do you think they would charge me to replace one of these sensors

To reply to my own post. Yes it will and it works great!

Very nice! The TS508WF has the data link cable. Never used that tool and also haven't done a 20 Toyota yet. Out of curiosity, what is the relearn procedure?

[@yong-gulee162]

Could you give us the link to the tool you are using to deplete the air out at 4:53. Secondly, what Autel model are you using? Did this Autel model write the new sensor ID to the car ECU without the need for TS508?

[@raincitywrench117]

I'm using an older Autel MS908 but almost any of their diagnostic tools will register without using anything else. Here is a link for a dual head tire valve core remover: www.amazon.com/uxcell-Single-Valve-Remover-Repair/dp/B00BQHABMS

[@victoryijieh1169]

I need help here. I noticed that my tpms sensor after replacement and registration does not give the actual tire pressure. And it becomes not available every time turn off and on the ignition. I would have to re-register it all over again

[@raincitywrench117]

Interesting... Make sure you activate each one to see if they wake up, show accurate pressure/temp and are all different ID #'s. Hopefully you wrote the sensor identification numbers on each sensor before installing. If so then register the sensors again, turn key off/on and see if any of the sensor id's have changed.

How do reset the TPWS on a 2022 Tundra when you put your winter tires on with new sensors and rims

[@raincitywrench117]

Haven't done a 2022 but my guess is the new sensors will have to be registered or else they won't read the pressure or temperature. Also, may need the serial #'s on each sensor to program into the module.

Some sensors have 2 or 3 numbers on the back,how do you tell which one is the sensor id?

[@raincitywrench117]

It's the 7 digit number and can be all numbers or can be mixed with letters. Think some use 8 digits too. I take a picture or write down the sensor identification numbers from the scanner before I start to replace an individual sensor. If installing multiple then simply record the large alpha numeric numbers off the new sensors.

[@Bearkat73]

What scan tool (not the little handheld) tablet is that?

[@raincitywrench117]

Autel MS908, I believe 2018 production

[@themattofalltradez]

If that's a TS508, there was no need for another device to relearn to the ECU. The TS508 can write back to the ECU with the replacement IDs.

[@raincitywrench117]

No, mine it an older TS408. Looking to upgrade next year to a more fully functional tool.

[@olenaerhardt7725]

@8:00 When you install TPMS sensor w/rubber stem, I assume (I've never work w/tires w/TPMS sensors) you need to apply some mounting lubricant pasta (I used Bead Don on rubber stems), like for usual stems w/no TPMS. But do you need to apply a bit of that paste on metal stem, like you have? Or something else should be applied, or just nothing? But the metal stem also has on the bottom the Rubber gasket as well, so should be lubricated I think. Thank you for the informative film.

[@raincitywrench117]

Yea, exactly. All the rubber stems that have to be pulled through need to be lubed with Bead Don, Bead Eze, etc. The metal stems like on Toyotas that have the rubber gasket don't require lube but it won't hurt either way. I make sure to check the hole opening and sometimes the aluminum wheel will have oxidation/corrosion that needs to be sanded smooth or the new stems will leak.

@@raincitywrench117 Thank you very much for the clarification of this question w/edges (bead flanges). I see now. Those small patches of chipped paint developped in m,y work on wheels at the points of contact w/cardboard, bcs how i did it was the following: I put the wheel on the cardboard (fm/broken box) against 2 sheepperd hooks, so the surface of the wheel made ~ 20-25 degrees w/vertical direction. Then I sprayed w/primer (following directions). When the wheel dried off (~30 min), I turn it to spray the points on the bottom. Then same thing w/paint. Probably you need to let it dry more, then there will be no pills off at some points of contact w/cardboard. I wanted to put 2 tires on today, so I'll just go around w/1000 grits sandpaper on flanges and see how all that will work.
