Acura TPMS learning & sensor setup
NSX: OBD learning
The listed 2016–2020 NSX system uses OBD registration for replacement sensor IDs. Other Acura models need their own model-specific check.
Recommended AUTOMATE tools
Program, clone & activate sensors
For compatible AUTOMATE replacement sensors, we recommend the AUTOMATE Bluetooth Programmer / Cloning Tool. It programs blank sensors, copies supported original IDs and activates compatible sensors.
It does not write IDs into the car through OBD. A correctly pre-programmed sensor does not need blank-sensor programming again.

Register IDs in the car
We recommend the AUTOMATE Bluetooth OBD Reader & Writer for supported vehicle applications. It writes sensor IDs through the car’s OBD socket.
Choose this for the vehicle-registration step, alongside a sensor programmer if your replacement sensors are blank. Match the exact model, year and OBD write support before ordering.

Use the build date, not just the registration year. When rows overlap, match the sensor part number, frequency and market.
Choose your model to narrow the list. Each row states the learning method.

What this means for you
OBD learning
A TPMS OBD tool writes the sensor IDs into the car through its diagnostic socket. Programming the sensors alone does not complete this step.
Before and after learning
- Check cold tyre pressures against the vehicle’s tyre placard and repair any leak.
- Match the replacement sensor to the vehicle. Program a blank sensor or copy the original ID when your chosen setup requires it.
- Complete the learning method shown for your model. Check that the warning clears and that all monitored tyre readings appear, where the car displays them.
- If the warning remains, check pressure loss, sensor response and system faults. Repeating a reset does not repair a failed sensor.
