Hello, I installed a brand new OEM Toyota TPMS sensor in all of my tires. I am trying to program them so my light will turn off. What is a good TPMS scanner that can program OEM sensors. I bought the Autel maxitpms TS408 but it only programs MX sensors. Please provide me with any suggestions. The sensors are being detected but the light won't turn off.

This scanner is taking over it does everything a 5g scanner will and it only about $450.00. We can get cheaper one though. Lets do a CAN scan which is the future of automotive repair you can get a CAN scanner from Amazon for about $50.00. here is a video to show you how:

I don't think the senor needs program because the repair don't mention it. there is however a small battery inside the sensor that goes bad. check out the tire pressure sensor replacement instructions below. Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what happens.
