Did you move the tire pressure sensors from the old rims to the new ones?

[chriscruz2006]

where is that located?

[Qmobile]

the sensors are incorporated with your valve stem. I had this same problem when I put my rims on

[chriscruz2006]

do you mean i have to remove the tires of the rims, and remove the valve stems, and installed them to the aftermarket rims

Yes or buy new sensors and have them placed on your new rims. If you had this service done at a tire shop, by law they are suppose to do this for you(if your Yaris was made after Sept 2007).

wow theres a law about this hmmm:iono:

[b_hickman11]

Yes thats why all 2008's have TPMS on them, no matter what the make is. Also thats why a lot of tire shops are starting to charge more if your car is an 08 or 09(at least in my area.)

i have stock everything, and my light came on about 2-4 weeks after i bought it *new* i checked the tire pressure, and it's fine. anything else i can do? could take it to the dealer, but would rather not deal with the hassle.

[ddongbap]

No.. really? I just thought it was only required by law to have the TPMS on the car from the factory.

Anything after isn't worth diddly.

You can read the error code from the "blinks" of the TPWS light. This will tell you what the TPWS thinks is wrong.

To do so:

1. Turn the iginition off

2. Connect the CG (pin 4) and TC (pin 13) pins together on the DLC3 connector (also known as the OBDII connector). You can do so with a small clip lead.

3. Turn the ignition on

4. TPWS light will light steady for three seconds

5. TPWS light will flash in a pattern indicating the stored DTCs (trouble codes). The pattern will require you to count the flashes and discern the delays between.

For example, if DTCs 13 and 23 are stored you will see:

0.5 second flash
1.5 seconds off (1)

0.5 second flash
0.5 second flash
0.5 second flash (3)

2.5 seconds off (gap between stored codes)

0.5 second flash
0.5 second flash (2)
1.5 seconds off

0.5 second flash
0.5 second flash
0.5 second flash (3)

4.5 seconds off (gap between repeating)

Then, it will start again and will repeat until you kill the iginition and remove the jumper.





What the codes mean:

11, 12, 13 or 14 (Tire pressure low on one of the 4 tires)

21, 22 ,23 or 24 (No signal from one of the 4 sensors)

41, 42, 43, or 44 (Transmitter ID error on one of the 4 sensors)

65, 66 ,67, or 68 (Abnormal temperature inside one of the 4 tires)

71 (Transmitter ID not registered)

73 (Vehicle speed or Engine Speed Signal Malfunction)

76 (Malfunction in TPWS ECU internal cuircuit)

91 (Vehicle Speed Sensor Error)

94 (Engine Speed Sensor Error)

Tire shops are required to make sure if they work on an 08 or 09 that they reset the TPMS or they could loose their certifications....but some smaller shops really dont get a damn.

Hi, Is there a master list posted anywhere that has all of the codes?

[CTScott]

That list is all of the codes. Because the Yaris does not register tires to specific corners, the 4 codes that all mean the same thing are due to the fact that it can be any one of the 4.

Oh, I don't mean just for tires, I mean everything. Or is there something to xref codes read via a jumper to the P type codes?

I jumpered my connector and I "think" it is giving me 34 and 39 (which may be meaningless because I initially had the jumper position reversed which reported nothing but a continuously flashing ABS light. THX!

There isn't a single list, but there are threads on here for TPMS, ABS and SRS, all of which have jumper readable codes.

[robkay]

I've searched some. Guess I'll need to keep searching. THX

If you can't find the threads on here. The codes are listed in the appropriate sections of the service manual (downloadable from the Micro Image forum):

So on a somewhat related note (as I've been looking at aftermarket rims) - I can have a shop just take the sensors out of the old rims, right? Or would I be required to add totally new ones? This expense didn't even occur to me until I started pricing stuff on tirerack.com and it asked me to add the sensors if I had the tires mounted and it was like $50 a wheel!?!

You can definitely transfer your existing sensors over to new rims. It is recommended to replace the seals on the sensors when you do so, but that is just a couple dollars per tire as opposed to the cost of a sensor.
