Gen3 Prius TPMS Sensor Part Number Madness

Yeah, that's kind of why I'd have more confidence buying if Pacific Industrial had their own retail storefront somewhere, but I don't get the sense that they do.

 

Yes I get what you're saying. But what I do notice now I just went and looked like last evening when this started and I noticed that Pacific has changed their logo and how it's put on the new TPMS sensors that are coming down the pipe right at this moment they've gone to a casting the Pacific industrial or whatever you just said right into the plastic on the edge of like where the stuff fits together You have to really blow up the pictures and look for it and there is the logo it's engraved it's not painted in the wider the silver and doesn't have the little green or the red dot anymore on the new pieces but the part numbers are very similar and they're not in front of me so I can't rattle off the first four digits I even saw original Toyota TPMS sensors Pacific branded with a Toyota box sitting behind it a real Toyota box maybe it's just there for the picture and they were $14 a piece might have been $12.99 I don't know how many he had I didn't query that person and ask them anything but the number on the sensor the model and all that jives with the series that at least came on my generation too and I think they're the same on the three I have them off the three in the glove box I have to go out and look and that would be the 13 persona the 2010 haven't been touched and they don't work.

 

What I think is even more funnier about this whole situation is now that I have this a u t e l bidirectional scanning tool stuff for me going forward it'll probably wind up being cheaper for me to get their brand of TPMS sensors because my tool from them will be able to set them to the car without the car having to do much No manual number entering and getting the Toyota software out The branded tool of my scanner and their TPMS sensors and the job seems to be pretty much finished push a button with the car on and this branded tool will make those branded sensors and the car will see them and do its thing I guess which would be kind of cool I don't really care for getting the laptop out manually entering seven or 10 digit numbers for each corner of the car personally so I just leave the light on I check the tires very often My air hose is hanging right where my car parked and when I go out on fence lines and things like that I love a little air out of the tires from like 32 34
