TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR PROGRAMMING LAUNCH CRT5011E

In today's video we take a look at a 2010 Lexus RX350. The vehicle has had all 4 new tire pressure monitor sensors or tpms sensors replaced. With the growing number of aftermarket or universal tpms sensor brands on the market. It's hard to choose which ones to buy. Should you go with the aftermarket or the OEM sensors? Do they require programming or are they plug and play? What tool do you need if programming is required? Follow along as I answer some of the most commonly asked questions. Then I show you how a tool like the Launch CRT5011e can be used to write OEM sensor ID's into the cars computer and how it can be used with it's own proprietary universal sensors.

One thing to note: Lexus uses hexadecimal numbers on their TPMS sensors. However, replacement universal sensors may have a regular serial number on them. So, all you have to do is use a hexadecimal number converter from a Google search and enter the numbers into the vehicles computer. I ran into this issue after I purchased aftermarket sensors from Amazon that advertised no programming was necessary. However, they didn't work because they broadcasted their serial numbers in non hexidecimal format.

I have had great luck with the Launch tpms! Launch sensors is all we use at the shop. Thanks for another great video Eric!

[tombanes]

Very good, and repeating was indeed necessary to set it straight in the viewer’s mind.

[mikechiodetti]

Great tool! Didn't know about each aftermarket sensor using their own device. Learned something new today. Thank you for that.
Original tpms sensors on my 06 Frontier went 10 years, started giving intermittent problems with low battery power and colder temps back in 2016. Replaced all 4 with Nissan OEM sensors all is good in tpms land.

One of your tyres was showing 47 psi, but you went ahead and read that figure anyway and put it into the car ECU. So when you next drive it you will need to deflate that one tyre to match the others. When you do that the tyre light will come on as you have gone beyond the parameters of the sensor. Always set the tyres to the correct pressure before you do anything else.

Hello from Morocco, thanks men for all ur educational videos ♥️

[kitosan]

Yup. I did that exactly. Clone the aftermarket sensor with the old oem id sensor and the car thinks nothing is wrong. Only thing is you have to ensure you get the right tmps sensor as different brand cars uses different freqency. But then again, the newer (more expesnive) aftermarket tmps sensor has both frequency so you don't have second guess. However, I do notice this takes a slight longer for the system read sensor as it have pick up the correct frequency and correct id output data the car is looking. It does work nicely and does save you some money if you choose this route than oem tmps sensors.

The menus in my Autel TS508 look exactly the same as in your Launch (the sensor relearn screen is a direct match, too). Both tools probably have the same circuit boards. They're a great value and easy to use!

I am defintely on the same boat when it comes to TPMS sensor and tool bundles. Looking at the Launch and Autel handheld TPMS programming and relearn tools, they have free software updates for the tool's lifetime. But they only program their own branded blank sensors. The Ateq and Bartec tools cover a wider variety of programmable aftermarket sensors, if not all. But you'll have to pay a software license fee once the initial period expires. All of them, on the other hand, are capable of reading direct-fit OEM, direct-fit aftermarket, and programmable TPMS sensors with the sensor IDs written already. Plus, they're capable of performing relearns (OBD, drive, and stationary).

To make a long story short, we're at the mercy of the manufacturers when it comes to the tools and the replacement TPMS sensors we use.

Overall, excellent video.

[Greatestofalltime]

On my ISF my sensors lasted from 2008-2024. One went bad this year and I replaced all 4 with aftermarket. 🤞🏻

[charliekilo]

Awesome video. Since you registered OEM sensors on a 2010 Lexus I should be able to do the same with my 2011 Toyota Avalon. Thanks for the detailed video. Well done Sir.

[rubberman]

I replaced with an aftermarket tpms sensor on my Chevy traverse and had no issue doing a relearn with a $25 relearn tool.

[amgbenzvtwelveturbo]

Very informative video. Had no idea that aftermarket TPMS sensor manufacturers encrypt their units so that only their own proprietary scanners will work with them. I hope I said that right LOL. You provide good information for consumers at large who don't know about stuff like this.

[yoelarmas]

Thanks brother I’m locksmith just buy rx350 for my daughter and have 3 bad sensors I going to buy the launch and program my self

[patrickmclaughlin]

I'm never selling my 1970 VW
The computer tools you need to work on these new cars cost more then the car is worth!

[craigdixon]

One of my friends put regular old fashioned valve stems on his car. Then bought a container with new sensors in it, pressurized the container to 35 pounds and set the car to the new sensors. Finally putting the container in the trunk. With a magic marker writing the date of replacement on it. I thought it was slick.

[zodmansour]

Thank you for yet another great video. Please keep it up.

[dk]

Thank you for this precise explanation and remedy!

[joenissan]

All sensors come with their own ID. None are blank. That tool reads the new sensor, activates them, then allows you to transfer these new IDs to the ecu.
