Choose your vehicle manufacturer to learn how to reprogram TPMS sensors

A TPMS relearn procedure is the process of teaching your vehicle’s tyre pressure monitoring system to recognise the unique IDs of new or repositioned sensors. Depending on the vehicle, this may happen automatically while driving, through an OBD-II programming tool, by manual registration in the dashboard menu, or by cloning the original sensor IDs onto new sensors.

It depends on the vehicle. Auto-relearn vehicles — including many Toyota, Hyundai and Kia models — relearn sensor IDs after a short drive. Other vehicles — most European brands, Tesla, RAM and many Chinese EVs — require an OBD TPMS tool to write new sensor IDs into the vehicle’s ECU before the warning light will switch off. Check your make’s page above for the exact method.

Cloning copies the unique ID of an existing sensor onto a new sensor. The vehicle still sees the same ID, so no relearn is required. Cloning is ideal for second wheel sets, seasonal tyre changes and track wheels — and is widely supported on Japanese and Chinese vehicles via our Bluetooth or handheld programmers.

Select your vehicle’s region of origin in the directory above (European, Japanese, North American, Korean, Australian or Chinese), then open the relevant manufacturer page. Each page lists the supported model years and the exact relearn method — auto, stationary, OBD or clone.
