Toyota Avalon (XX50) 2019-2022 Service & Repair Manual: Registration

REGISTRATION

PROCEDURE

1. BEFORE REGISTRATION

NOTICE:

• The transmitter ID is written on the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter. It is not possible to read the transmitter ID after installing the tire onto the wheel. Therefore, make a note of the transmitter ID before installing the tire.
• Make sure to perform ID registration using the Techstream after replacing the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver.

(a) When replacing the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver:

(1) When replacing the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver, read the transmitter IDs and number of the transmitters (4 or 5) stored in the old ECU using the Techstream and write them down before removal.

(2) If reading the stored transmitter IDs is impossible due to malfunctions of components such as the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver, remove the tires from the wheels and check the IDs located on the tire pressure warning valve and transmitters.

(b) When replacing a tire pressure warning valve and transmitter:

(1) Take a note of the 7-digit number (transmitter ID) written on the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter.

NOTICE:

For vehicles equipped with the wheel speed type tire inflation pressure display function, be sure to use tire pressure warning valve and transmitters with identification marks.

2. REGISTER TRANSMITTER ID (USING TECHSTREAM)

• If the transmitter IDs have not been registered, DTC C2171 is stored in the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver after 3 minutes or more.
• If normal pressure values are displayed, the transmitter IDs have been registered correctly.
• If the tire pressure values are not displayed after a few minutes, the transmitter IDs may be incorrect or the system may have a malfunction.
• After all transmitter IDs are registered, DTC C2126 is stored in the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver and the tire pressure warning light blinks for 1 minute and then illuminates. When the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver successfully receives signals from all the transmitters whose IDs are stored in the ECU, DTC C2126 is cleared and the tire pressure warning light goes off.

(a) Enter the following menus: Chassis / Tire Pressure Monitor / Data List.

HINT:

*1: It may take a few minutes until the values are displayed. If the values are not displayed after a few minutes, perform troubleshooting according to the inspection procedure for DTCs C2121 to C2124.

(b) Reduce the tire inflation pressure of each tire 40 kPa (0.4 kgf/cm2, 5.8 psi) or more, and check that the "ID Tire Inflation Pressure" data is updated and that the actual tire inflation pressures are displayed.

(c) After confirming that all of the tire inflation pressure values (except the compact spare tire) have been updated, adjust the tire inflation pressure to the specified value, operate the steering pad switch assembly and perform initialization.

4. REGISTER TRANSMITTER ID (USING AUTOMATIC ID REGISTRATION FUNCTION)

NOTICE:

• If the automatic ID registration operation is canceled while registration is being performed, DTC C2126 is stored in the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver.
• If the automatic ID registration is started while DTC C2126 is stored, DTC C2126 and C2128 are stored in the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver.
• During registration, DTC C2128 is stored by the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver and the tire pressure warning light blinks for 1 minute then illuminates. When the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver successfully receives signals from all the transmitters whose IDs are stored in the ECU, DTC C2128 is cleared and the tire pressure warning light turns off.
• If a tire pressure warning valve and transmitter of the same type is carried in the vehicle, registration may not complete.

HINT:

• When registration is complete, all previously registered IDs are cleared.
• If DTCs C2176, C2179 and U0129 are stored, registration mode cannot be entered.
• If the Techstream is being used to display the Data List, registration mode cannot be entered.
• If the Techstream is used to display the Data List during registration, registration will be canceled.
• If DTCs C2176, C2179 and U0129 are stored during registration, registration will be canceled.
• If the engine switch is turned off before the vehicle is driven after entering registration mode, registration will be canceled.

(a) Adjust the tire pressure in all tires to the specified pressure.

(b) Turn the engine switch off and stop the vehicle for 15 minutes or more.
