    I just got a set of take-off OEM 15" alloys with tires and TPMS sensors installed. Will these TPMS sensors be automatically recognized by the car pressure monitoring system ?
    If not, what do I have to do to get them synchronized? Thanks !

    Pretty sure you need a scantool to do it. I have to program TPMS sensors a lot at my job and I always have to use the scantool on toyotas.

    I was kind of hoping that all OEM ToyotaTPMS sensors would use the same radio frequencies so it was not necessary to scan them but are probably right.

    Thanks for the offer, Matt. Unfortunately I am in Northern California.
