There is sometime made me frustrated that I don't understand why our shop's TPMS scan can't read new tire pressure sensor. Real pain in the azz.

    Toyota Tacoma TPMS

    Same thing in California. I don't care about ABS, TPMS or Traction lights. Just MIL (Check Engine or Service Engine Soon). Smog computer will read the emission monitors of "READY or NOT READY" in the vehicle's PCM. For 1996-1999 model year, no more than 2 Not Ready allow. For 2000 and up model...

    Toyota Tacoma TPMS

    If 4 tires need to replace, make sure you mark the wheels where they belong. Mix up wheel rims cause TPMS a corruption. If you drive with bad flat tire, then may ruin tire pressure monitor sensor. If not, screw Discount Tire up for damaged the sensor....

    I love your work...one interesting about the battery life in tire pressure monitor sensor if you reset them by manual like you mentioned but the TPMS light will come back after straight 25 or more minutes of driving time due to weak battery cause poor frequent signal to TPMS a computer. No...

    Toyota Tacoma TPMS

    Sue Discount Tire for damaged sensors however some tire shops hide the thin fine print on the bottom, states we are not responsible for damage the sensors while dismount or re mount tires. Many times I've seen. Aftermarket tire pressure monitor sensor may not work with Toyota vehicles, sound...

    What do you consider a mans car?

    No. I still call a 1974 Buick Electra w/ 4 doors as a muscle car because of big 455 cid motor. Steel bodies.
