Is there not a way to short out something at the wheel/sensor end before it gets encoded onto the CAN buss?

This looks like yet another case of unnecessary electronic complexity being put into cars, which means more things to go wrong. I work in the very high tech semiconductor/software industry myself, so I'm not against advances in technology as such, just against technology which causes more problems in the long run.

Just did this mod

Cut the brown, press-splicer brown and white....worked perfect (after I plugged the connector back into the box - duhhhh)....

Thank you - this place rocks!

(I chose to not have the sensor replaced after I heard it bouncing around in the left front tire and would have to pay $60 for a replacement)

Hello friend, let's see if you can help me! I have a 2010 Yaris sedan and I changed my tin rims for type S, I did not change the TPMS sensors of my original rims but the emergency rubber still has the factory sensor. The type S rings have their original TPMS sensors but the vehicle that had them. How can I configure the new sensors in my vehicle?

I know it's not a blog but I hope I can help. Grateful!!!

Sorry. I didn't read through the hundreds of posts. Just skimmed through and I didn't see that anyone had done what I did on my "09 Tacoma and '10 Yaris.
I removed the instrument cluster. It's very simple and just placed a double folded portion of electrical taped under the gauge face plastic film. Done.
This way nothing is eliminated if years from now you or the next owner wants the system in use.
It looks like the light was never there.

My apologies for resurrecting an old thread but I am having a problem with my TPMS on a 2011 Yaris.

The problem is, all of the pictures posted were on PhotoBucket and they purged all of their free user pictures.

The only pics lift are of Rick's on post #138.

I can happily try this one but I'd like verification that it worked from someone.

Also, would disabling the TPMS show up in the OBD2 scan?

thanks!

Does this work on a 2016 Yaris?
