Can you run without TPMS sensors?
Basically there is no problem in running tires without the tire pressure sensors other than, as you point out, the warning light showing at all times. Obviously, when a tire is removed from the rim, there is no pressure, which means the TPMS has to be reset when the new or different tire is installed.
Can a TPMS light be turned off?
Drive the car at 50 mph for about 10 minutes. This should reset the sensor, and the next time you start the car the TPMS light should be off. Without starting the car, turn the key to the “On” position. Press the TPMS reset button and hold it until the light blinks three times, then release it.
Does a new TPMS need to be programmed?
The issue stems from the availability of aftermarket TPMS sensors that come as “programmable”, “universal” or “cloneable” sensor units. These sensors must be programmed with the proper protocol/application information for the vehicle before they can be installed in the tire, and then must be relearned to the vehicle.
When to do a TPMS relearn in a Toyota Camry?

When did the sensor on my Camry stop working?
As my Camry has an April 2007 in-service date according to the dealer record, any of the other four sensors may suffer exhausted battery (not replaceable?) and shut down …needing expensive replacement. :crying: Anyone know a cheaper route for this problem? Similar issue with my IS250. It first started with TPMS for low tire pressure.
How does TPMS work on a Toyota Avalon?
During initialization, the tire pressure monitor valve sub-assembly measures the inflation pressure of the tires, and registers the signals that are transmitted into the tire pressure monitor ECU at a frequency of one per minute. The initialization process is completed when the signals from the 4 tires have been received.
