SQOD Squad - Stupid Question Of the Day

Ugh, this is why I prefer to do stuff on my own and even still manage to screw it up from time to time. I don’t need any help messing stuff up lol

I had to pony up for a tpms programmer from Autel ts508wf. It’s worked for me with Toyota tpms sensors. I’m pretty sure it works with the majority of aftermarket sensors too. Check it out if you want to go another direction with your solution.

I can’t imagine I can’t fix this with the Schrader ST-1 programmer I already have…. At least I hope I don’t need a second TPMS programmer.

I tried (and failed) with the first tpms programmer I bought. Good luck regardless.

The Carista app with the paid subscription will do it. The ODB FUSION app doesn’t have it. I have both and am hoping OBD FUSION will get an update to have this function so I can cut out Carista.
20mins is more then enough time for the sensors to register, any chance one of the new sensors is bad?

They aren’t new, I’ve had them registered and working fine for 20k miles. It’s not until today when I relearned them that they quit showing on the dash. I had to putz around the menus to remember what exactly I needed to do and I must have not done something correct as they were displaying before I relearned them just in the previous locations before I rotated.

I’ll have time to fiddle with it tomorrow.

With the Carista app, can you remove them and start over?

I just checked the manual and it could take up to 1 hour to start work after resetting the TPMS… maybe I’ll take another drive.

It definitely takes a while for the TPMS stuff to reset. Only reason I know is I have the spare tire off and after I reset the warning light, I can drive a few times before it throws the error again about the missing tire.
