By Juraj · Last updated August 15, 2026

This guide shows how to perform a TPMS sensor relearn on a Toyota Corolla (2016–2019) using an OBD2 scanner with TPMS service functions.

The procedure writes the new sensor IDs into the TPMS control unit using the OBD relearn function.

Step-by-step procedure

Open TPMS service menu

Connect your OBD2 scanner to the vehicle and turn the ignition ON.

Navigate to:

Service Reset
→ TPMS Service

Select the correct vehicle

Select the vehicle in the scanner menu:

Toyota
→ Corolla
→ 2016/10 – 2019/03
→ 433 MHz (4260742021)

This selects the correct TPMS sensor protocol used in this vehicle.

Scan the TPMS sensors

Using the TPMS activation tool, scan each tire pressure sensor.

Trigger the sensors in this order:

LF → RF → RR → LR

The scanner will read and store the sensor ID from each wheel.

Switch to programming mode

After scanning all sensors, switch to the Programming tab in the TPMS menu.

Select:

OBD Relearn

This will write the scanned sensor IDs into the vehicle’s TPMS module through the OBD2 connection.

Confirm the TPMS relearn

Follow the instructions shown on the scanner.

The tool will transfer the sensor IDs to the TPMS control unit.

After the process completes:

  1. Turn the ignition OFF
  2. Turn the ignition ON again

Test the system

Drive the vehicle for several minutes to allow the TPMS system to initialize.

The TPMS warning light should turn off once the system detects all sensors.
