Scan Tools Needed for TPMS Relearn/Reset 2019 WRX
Since I got my 19' in Jan, I had to hurry up and get a snow tire package for it, and didn't do a lot of research into TPMS, specifically buying TPMS sensors that could be cloned with the factory sensors IDs.
So now that it's consistently above 50°F here I threw the factory tires back on and mr annoying tire pressure light is on. I've been trying to search to find out what tool/scanner I need to scan the factory tires to get the IDs (I don't see them listed on statement of work from TireRack), and so far It appears I need this tool from ATEQ to get the IDS: https://www.amazon.com/ATEQ-VT31-Res...RXBZDEW1DE8BFG Then I will need the Quicket Tool: https://www.amazon.com/ATEQ-QuickSet.../dp/B008SCWXN4 Or can I buy one of these Autel units to do that above in an all in one unit? https://www.amazon.com/Autel-TS501-A...12-spons&psc=1

If you need a Scanner/Activator and a programmer, you can get the ATEQ VT36 (https://www.ateq-tpms.com/en-us/prod...gramming-tool/) on Amazon for a little over $200.00. If you want a Scanner/Activator that can program and hard code via OBDII, you will need to step up and get the VT56 (https://www.ateq-tpms.com/en-us/prod...t56-tpms-tool/) which you can also find on Amazon but for a lot more money, IIRC. The Quickset is just a hard code unit via OBDII that allows you to switch between two different sets of TPMS. However, you will still need a scanner/activator like the VT31 to initiate the whole process for the first time by reading the sensor codes and waking them up so the ECU can detect them. Basically, VT56 is VT36 plus Quickset and more. Last edited by TifosiWA; 04-22-2019 at 04:10 PM. |

So it sounds like I can use the VT36 to scan the OEM sensors to get the IDs, and then use it to program/relearn the car to read those? |

Just throwing this out there. Discount Tire can clone sensors for ya if buying your own equipment is too much hassle.

Let's go back to the beginning so I have a better understanding of your situation. There is something about your situation that I am not cleared on. You have two sets of wheels/tires, summer and winter. You bought the winter set from TireRack with aftermarket TPMS sensors installed and has been using it this past winter. And now you are switching to your summer set, which is your stock wheels/tires/OEM TPMS sensors and it is triggering the TPMS light. This part does not make sense to me because unless the sensors on your winter set are already clones of your stock/summer set, it should be the winter set that triggers your warning light and not the other way around. Or did someone changed the codes in the ECU for you to the winter set TPMS ? Last edited by TifosiWA; 04-23-2019 at 01:50 AM. |

Discount Tires can do it but it also depends on the type of sensors TR used and the type of TPMS scanner/programmer device his local shop has and uses. |

VT36 not the same as Quickset
Quote:
My bright idea was to save the WRX summer tire sensor ID in the Quickset by downloading from the OBD port. I have the winter sensor numbers from Tire Rack on the invoice so I could just program those in from my PC and I could swap away. Doesn’t work when you cannot communicate with the car |

Per TR they do a complete relearn of the new sensor IDs to the car. My friend has a nice Autel scan tool, but it doesn't scan/activate TPMS.

1) You will need at least the VT31 to scan the codes of both set of TPMS and activate them. And use the Quickset to program the ECU (Check with ATEQ's Tech support first, Chas2 had posted that their WRX database only goes up to 2017). 2) Buy the VT56 or equivalent tool that can do it all. 3) Buy 4 new programmable TPMS such as Schrader EZ sensor, then clone them to your winter set (Because that's what your ECU is coded to recognize now) then put them onto your summer set. I think you will still need an activator/trigger tool such as the VT06 every time you switch from one set to another. 4) Have a shop or dealership do the re-code for you whenever you do the switch. Since you are a TR customer, check with them and see if this is a covered service. That's all I can think of now, maybe other members here will have more and better ideas that can help you. |

^ I should be good. I was just mainly looking for confirmation on what tool set I would need to get IDs, and then learn them to the ECU. I am going to see if the Autel TS508 will do this. Having one all in one will be nice..
It's also interesting that the WRX still uses the 315mhz sensors.. |

Confirmed that the TS508 will do this . I was done with the whole job in about 5 minutes. Did a relearn, scanned each sensor, programmed to ECU, reset the DTCs, and light on dash no more

Glad to see you work everything out. These TPMS tools are not cheap but with TPMS here to stay, will become a necessity even for novice home garage mechanics like me soon. And I think they are just kinda cool to have in the tool box too.

How irritating was the TPMS light on the ‘19 WRX? I’m about to pull the trigger on aftermarket wheels but they don’t have the TPMS sensors. If it’s just a “dash light” I’m 100% fine with that but if it consistently beeps and/shows up on the digital display that’s a no-go for me. Thanks, I apologize for throwing this random question in here but I didn’t want to start a new thread and I can’t find the answer ANYWHERE for new models.

It doesn't beep, but the light will show, and in the info part of the cluster there will be a yellow (i), as well as the info part telling you the TPMS is mad at you when starting up the car.

Does the warning in the middle Info part go away after the car is started or does it stay on?

The one area where it will tell you vehicle speed or you have a door open etc, only comes on when first starting the car. The little (i) stays on all the time as well as the low tire pressure light as well.

Good to know. I'm considering one too. Don't really want to have to go to the tire shop twice a year just to get the TMPS reprogramed! Damn I wish I had got sensors that could be cloned to my factory wheels!

Yeah you should go with VT36, it should fit your needs. That is also what I'm currently using.
