    I have a 2015 Tacoma and I am having trouble with my TPMS.

    When I go on a road trip the TPMS light flashes, then goes to solid, and then turns off. Right now the light is off.

    Flashing TPMS light most likely indicates a low battery in one of the sensors. I want to keep my TPMS functional.

    Anyone that has TIS can scan my vehicle for me and check the voltages of the sensor?

    Would appreciate it!!

    You can go to your nearest America’s tire and they will use their scanner on the sensors for free.

    If what @airmax233 said above doesn't work then you can pass by my place in the inland empire and I'll check your sensors with the tpms tool I have

    Thanks. I called American Tire and they said they cannot program a oem TPMS sensor. They were trying to sell me to go with aftermarket. I want to stick with oem.

    I can do oem sensors as far as programming, you'll just have to get them installed beforehand, takes about 10 minutes. Bring by a bang energy drink and I'll knock it out.

    I have an Autel TPMS scan tool. I was able to reprogram the new Denso's I had installed. I have Friday 10/29 off and I have an errand to do that day in the OC. Let me know.

    Hello anyone have a scantool that displays the specific voltages of each TPMS sensor??

    3 weeks ago American Tire said I have a faulty sensor, bought an OEM sensor from the dealer. Went back to American Tire, they scanned my tires, all sensors are reading now.. hmmm.. I went to another shop that had a Snapon reader, he said all sensors are good, battery reading 'ok' on each sensor. Last weekend I went camping and my TPMS started blinking again during the 5 hour freeway drive, so I know I have a faulty sensor.

    What I need is someone with TIS that can display the voltage of each sensor. Anyone can help me out?
