TPMS programming for Gen 2 wheels on Gen 3

You'll probably live with the light on You could use Toyota software or a good TPMS tool and relearn every time you change the wheels this should be able to work in the Toyota software you will have to manually enter in the numbers of each sensor every time you change the wheels It looks like I'm kind of dealing with this a little bit right now as we speak and I'm probably not going to fool with it. If you can get your hands on a Toyota TPMS relearn tool it should be able to make the computer learn the sensors that are on the car generally speaking some cars are capable of doing this apparently in some cars aren't some TPMS tools are only made to work with TPMS sensors by the same company that makes the tool a u t e l is one of those companies their TPMS tools say right in their literature they are made to work with their branded TPMS sensors now what else they can do I'm not sure I'm trying to avoid entering in long strings of numbers for every TPMS sensor that to me is just seemingly ridiculous.

 

With the advent of gen 5 Toyota finally went with a TPMS system that'll recognize more than one set of tires, and easily switch between them. Earlier years don't have that capability. Unless you want to invest in equipment and know how, or a pay a dealership twice yearly: I'd just live with the light on, say with the winter tires.

 

If you have techstream, or the xtools computer or a code reader that can program the sensors,
then yes you can do it yourself. One of the auto stores "might" do it for you for free or small fee.
