A scan tool can reset the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) on a vehicle. The TPMS is a system that monitors the air pressure in a vehicle's tires and sends a warning signal to the driver when the pressure is low. A scan tool can be used to diagnose and repair the TPMS.
OBD2 scanners can read TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system) data from the vehicle's computer. This data can be used to determine if the tires are inflated properly and to adjust the pressure if needed.
You can program TPMS yourself with the right tools and a little know-how. First, you'll need to purchase a TPMS relearn tool. This tool can be found at most auto parts stores. Once you have the tool, follow the instructions that come with it to relearn the new sensor IDs to the vehicle's ECU.
When you get new tires, you don't necessarily have to replace your TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system) sensors. However, if your TPMS sensors are more than five years old, it's a good idea to replace them. TPMS sensors have a battery life of about five years, so they may not be accurate after that. Also, if your TPMS sensors are damaged, you'll need to replace them.

After becoming dissatisfied with TPMS issues and local businesses' inability to configure TPMS sensors for various makes and models, I purchased this gadget. I didn't want to take any of my vehicles to the dealer every time there was a TPMS problem, and after speaking with some tire shop employees, I was persuaded that some of the technicians had the necessary technical knowledge to configure the sensors for different makes and models. I recently needed to have a TPMS sensor updated, and the shop easily took care of the replacement for only $16. They claimed that after a few miles of driving, the TPMS light would turn off. I was aware from prior experience that after the sensor is activated, my 2009 Forester needs the new ID number of the sensor to be programmed into the TPMS system in the vehicle. Naturally, the TPMS light did not go off as I drove home. I took out this tool, and in just a few minutes, the TPMS warning light went out and the new sensor ID number was encoded into the vehicle's TPMS system. This utility will activate new sensors, scan all the sensors to determine whether they are active, diagnose the TPMS system, program the new sensor ID numbers into your car's TPMS system, and possibly have a ton of other capabilities that I won't likely need. Although it was pricey, I believe having a TPMS on hand is a smart idea now that it is required for all cars.

Making friends with this machine and learning how to program it took me a few months. I installed it on my trailer after waiting a month, just to become dissatisfied with it and want to return it. I now regret not doing so. Since you may only return anything within 30 days of purchase, I advise you to do it right away. I was frustrated since I had initially improperly programmed the device. Although I found the diections to be a little perplexing, the Minder staff was trying to make me satisfied with it. They walked me through the code throughout the course of several talks we had. This organization, which has a customer care division that is very committed, is based in Stuart, Florida. They will call you back if you leave a message on the answering machine.

I've used this tool on BOTH a 2015 Chevrolet Traverse and a 2013 Ford Explorer. It performed FANTASTIC on BOTH. However, make sure to adhere to the recommendations and possibly go a little beyond them when it comes to removing interference, such as noise from other surrounding vehicles. I ran into problems the first time I tried to utilize it on the 2013 Ford Explorer. The tool would enable the vehicle to recognize some tire sensors, but NOT ALL of them (and not always the same sensor(s)); once the right front, then the rear right, and then the left rear in no particular order; sometimes pressing its button again would yield a result, and sometimes it would not; however, the front left [driver's side front] always worked] and I probably tried 8 or 9 times before I was able to get all four tire sensors to be recognized in one relearn session). After several failed tries, I grew pretty FRUSTRATED and started blaming this "cheap gadget." However, after doing some online research, I discovered that even professional mechanics using PRO tools occasionally experienced issues with various interference sources, such as mobile phones, Bluetooth devices, and various devices plugged into the power port or cigarette lighter (a PRO mechanic even reported that a specific, inexpensive, no-name brand mobile phone charger plugged into the power port/cigarette lighter was the cause of TPMS issues). So, I unplugged my radar detector from the cigarette lighter/power port and turned on my Bluetooth-enabled phone about 50 to 60 feet away from my car. Suddenly, this tool began to work flawlessly on every tire sensor with just one button press, without any other adjustments to the vehicle's location or the programming procedures that I was using. It was most likely one of the two because it worked PERFECTLY the first time after excluding the phone and radar detector from the equation. I haven't gone back to revisit this to determine if the phone or the radar detector was the source of interference. If I were a professional mechanic changing tires all day, every day, this tool might not be durable enough to be the ideal one, but for do-it-yourselfers at this price, it's EXCELLENT.

I bought some old OEM Chevy wheels from a 2015 Silverado about three years ago to put on my 2012 model. I took a chance even though the vendor wasn't sure if the vehicle had TPMS sensors fitted. I just figured there weren't any of them or that they weren't compatible due of the different model year when I couldn't get them to sync with my truck. I've been driving with the yellow tire warning light on for the past three years. I required new tires last week, and I noticed TPMS sensors in the wheels as they were being changed. I looked around to see if there was a way to get them to operate and came across this cute little gadget. Can't beat the price, and I was astonished that holding it close to the valve stem on the wheel was all it took to turn the sensors back on. Now that I have a gadget to help me re-learn the truck the next time I get a tire rotation, I can get pressure readings for all 4 of my tires.

On my 2014 Traverse, I've tried this once, and I was able to make it function. The only problem I had was that the valve stem on the first tire (front left), with which you begin the relearn procedure, was initially in the six o'clock position. After futzing around with it for a while and failing to get it to function, I decided to try if moving the valve stem would make a difference. The valve steam operated well once I shifted the automobile towards the 12 o'clock position. It's important to note that once the first tire was identified, several of the other tires had their valve stems at the four and six o'clock positions and still functioned as intended. I'm not sure if my initial experience will hold true in further uses of this, but I thought I'd share it in case someone else runs into the same issue on their first usage.

These sensors are excellent. The majority of cars can use them. I've read some unfavorable reviews and would like to clarify them.For these to function and be recognized by your car, two things must take place (which will turn off TPMS sensor light warning).First, realize that TPMS sensors communicate their ID number and the tire pressure at the moment. Unless it knows to seek for them, your car will ignore them. Imagine that your car has a spreadsheet that lists the following information for each of its four or five tire slots: TIRE1: 123456, TIRE2: ABCDEF, TIRE3: 140GNB, and TIRE4: 20RMS0. Your automobile will flash a warning light if the TPMP sensors are not set to read 123456, ABCDEF, 140GNB, or 20RMS0. Additionally, if the TPMS is malfunctioning or the tire pressure is too low, a warning light will flash. Just remember that the codes are made up of random letters and numbers and are kept in your automobile; they don't have to be the ones I listed. If your sensors already have ID numbers, you can modify that "spreadsheet" in your automobile, but you'll need a tool to do it.To install, first PROGRAM the sensor after installing it in the wheel. Using an Autel or Bartec TPMS programmer, you can assign an ID to the sensor by programming it. They are delivered BLANK, thus they CANNOT be used without programming. Set a code for them. TIP: If you can identify the codes of all of your tires and TPMS sensors, whether they are new or used, or at least the ones the car recognizes, you can configure the new sensors to match the old ones, and everything will magically function. Step 2 won't even be necessary to turn off the TPMS warning light.2. Set up your vehicle to understand the new TPMS sensor IDs. Making these sensors match your previous sensor IDs, which your car already understands, is the easiest thing to do if you purchase them. However, no matter what you do, if you generate new sensor IDs, you must inform your car of their existence. Advanced Autel or Bartec TPMS devices can be used for this. The same is true for your dealership. ONE MORE STEP REQUIRED: Press your car's TPMS reset button. Usually, it's a tiny black button that's near your legs at the bottom of the plastic beside the steering wheel, which is much lower. Contrary to popular misconception, this does not involve reprogramming the vehicle to recognize new sensors. All that it accomplishes is force the car to once again understand which of the four tires on the spreadsheet is located where (front left, back right, etc..). Only vehicles that display individual tire pressures are required to have this.That's it. Most auto shops (Autozone, O'Reilys, etc.) will let you borrow one for free if you want to know what your current sensor IDs are so you can use them to program those same IDs to make this whole process faster. But none that I found allowed you to use one with programming ability at all. Most tire businesses I contacted wanted me to schedule an appointment, but most will install these sensors and program my car for roughly $6 per tire. Just to provide some approximate figures I discovered.We can only hope that this is useful to one person who wants to purchase inexpensive sensors but is unsure of their use. These versions are programmable, which is absolutely unnecessary unless you want them for a wide variety of vehicles or if you want them to match your current tires (either because they broke or because you have two sets of wheels, one for the summer and one for the winter) and want to swap them out without having to reprogram the vehicle.

This tool was on sale, but not by much, so I bought it. I wanted to utilize this to reset a third-party sensor I installed in my 2011 Dodge Nitro. I paid the dealership about $60 only to reset the sensor, but later found out my car doesn't have that capability. The only method to program it is to drive it for a little period of time at a low pace while maintaining the right tire pressure. I purchased this gadget since my sensor indicated that it could not be located. If anyone is curious, I tried unplugging the battery in my car, but the problem returned right away.Returning to this fantastic tool My sensor was reset, but my issue was not resolved. However, because this tool provides for additional capabilities with its own sensors, I will be purchasing compatible sensors for it. The tool contained information on how to activate three distinct reset techniques as well as how to utilize the tool itself to reset them. It can inform you of the connection and battery level, tire pressure, and other awesome information. In general, it delivers on its promises and does so effectively. I think the "kink" I encountered was a software problem. The gadget appeared to have jammed one of the times I plugged it in, but I didn't update it right away. It became unresponsive and would not load. It's a rare glitch, so I can't test whether a software upgrade would fix it. I gave it five stars even though I would have like greater customizability with various sensors because in the end, the problem was with my sensor. The tool will be useful with my other vehicles and the sensors I intend to purchase the next time, so I'm keeping it. Do keep in mind that this device solely handles TPMS issues; it cannot detect or resolve engine light problems.
Most tire shops will install TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system) sensors when you purchase new tires. They will also check the condition of your TPMS sensors and let you know if they need to be replaced.
Yes, Autozone does relearn TPMS.
Walmart does not install TPMS sensors, but it does sell them. You can find TPMS sensors at most auto parts stores, as well as at Walmart.
If your low tire pressure light is on, it means that one or more of your tires is low on air. To get the light to go off, you'll need to add air to your tires until they are all at the proper pressure. You can find your tire's recommended pressure in the owner's manual or on a sticker inside the driver's door. Once your tires are inflated, the light should go off.
If your car's tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is giving you a warning light, it may be time to reprogram it. You can do this without any special tools. First, check the pressure in all four tires. If they are low, inflate them to the correct pressure. Next, reset the TPMS by pressing and holding the reset button, usually located on the dash. Finally, drive the car for a few miles to allow the system to relearn the new tire pressure readings.
