If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

TPMS light will cause inspection fail?
If any sensor was replaced, it must be "learned" to the car.
The system does not automatically learn a new sensor by itself.
Each sensor has a unique ID#, and the TPMS system holds 4 ID numbers in memory.
If you have a sensor on the car that is not stored in memory, it will turn the light on.
The light will return in about 20 miles if a sensor has failed or if a sensor was not recognized by the system.

Re: Scanner reset TPMS. Does ECU need to learn now?
i didnt checnge anything, i just cleared a TPMS light and am wondering if that clear will interfere with my NYS inspection.
I know that if you disconnect the battery you drive a bit to get the ECU READY.
so does a TpMS reset make the ECU not READY?

TPMS is not subject to the same rules and does not follow the same.
