(OBDII Errors continued)

Error E4 – Wrong Set Error

Many Lexus vehicles can store more than one set of TPMS ID’s in ECU. Toggle the vehicles selected set to the MAIN set. Then retry OBDII Relearn.

Error E5 – Spare Tire Error

If you receive this error, and you did not upload a sensor ID for the spare, then this vehicle requires a spare. If you did upload a spare, but you received this error, then the vehicle does not store the ID in the ECU for the spare tire.

Toyota Loop

If you receive E1, E2, E3, or E4 on Toyota / Lexus vehicles after verifying a good connection, the vehicle may be stuck in a loop. This happens when the “SET” button is pressed after introducing new sensors to the vehicle. This may require a special tool to remove the vehicle from the loop.
