Does anyone have a tool to read the sensor code/activate the sensors? I have the sensor id’s and an ateq tpms reset tool but the damn light keeps coming back on after a few miles of driving after i flash the car. I am guessing either i have the wrong sensor IDs or the sensors arent turning on. TPMS = :bigtdown: ---

Black tape. Usually the light will go back off once the original wheels go back on. Unless like Smith said they are there and just not being read. ---

Its a 2010 WRX. I would rather not take it to the stealership but it is an option. I am somewhat sure I simply need to activate the sensors. :gotme: ---

just pull out the bulb out of the cluster, know that your tires are ok and periodically check the pressure and forget about it ---
