TPMS Initialization

[ARES_1]

OK

Car is a 2008 LB with the factory TPMS system installed.

Upgrading to 17" wheels/tires and ordered with sensors installed in the new wheels so I didn't have to pull them off wheels just to swap sensors. TR says I have to go to dealer to reset car for new wheel/sensors. Can't believe that it's much more than a simple procedure that one could do their self if they knew what button to push or something like that.

The 06-11 Yaris don't have a simple initialization, so you will have to go to the dealer or a tire shop for it. The TPMS ECU only remembers one set, so you will have to either buy an extra TPMS ECU and swap it when you swap wheels or go back and have it initialized each time.

I don't plan on swapping wheels again any time soon so that isn't an issue. It's nice to hear that maybe a tire shop can do the reset. I'll call around to a couple shops to see if they can do the job as the local dealer's hours don't match well with my work schedule.
