Gen 2 TPMS solution

When I replaced my TPMS sensors (all 4 of them) when I got new tires, I had to go to a dealership to get them properly synched with the car, despite buying the tires elsewhere. In my opinion, if you care about the sensors and one dies, you might as well replace all of them at the same time, since the others likely aren’t far behind.

 

Yes by the Pacific branded green label TPMS sensors for the generation 2 That's who makes all the wheel hardware for your car from the factory to confirm this look at the back of your center caps on your wheels what word do you see and begins with the p. Those sensors on eBay from Pacific are like $43.80 The guy with the $5,000 scanner that's probably got the tool that resets the car to the tire pressure sensors immediately without entering in a bunch of numbers that is a thing now It's a lot faster than sitting there with a laptop at the car entering in eight or nine digit numbers but it can be still be done that way if you like you'll need to know where they are on the car initially to enter them in after that it doesn't matter. The best thing to do with this is when you do your CM monitor display repair remove the speaker off the back of the CM monitor eliminates all the noises and knock out any of the lights you don't like In my case the TPMS would have to go as would the seat belt flashing red light other than that everything else would stay.

 

I just replace the battery in the original sensors and they work like new.

 

Most people don't have the capability to replace the battery in a "sealed" TPMS sensor (and have it be reliable) - OR don't think it's worth the effort.

the Walmart scanner might cost $5k but you can buy a TPMS relearn and scanner device for less than $300. However $30 all in at Walmart is a deal that is hard to beat or believe.
