Note, on vehicles used in the UK on or after 1st January 2012 the TPMS system is part of the MOT and a "Tyre pressure monitoring system malfunctioning or obviously not working" is a Major defect and will fail MOT.

Is there any way around this plus is there a scan tool that I could get so the car will recognize a new module and what side it's on.plus is it a good idea just to take out the module and put in a new Battery yourself .those modules are really expensive

Techstream can definitely deal with TPMS programming and if you Google TPMS diagnostic tool, you should get results. Autel-MaxiTPMS-TS501-Diagnostic-Programming is a good example. There are plenty, but make sure they are compatible with your car! The standalone diagnostic tool like the Autel, will confirm the wheel with the faulty sensor. It is not cheap, but if used a few times will pay for itself. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Autel-Diagnostic-Monitoring-Programming-diagnostic/dp/B01IVG4TEC

I have techstream and not sure why the lights are on by looking at my techstream seems all my sensors work

I have never had TPMS, but have adjusted them on other cars (Ford and Mazda) for friends. The first thing is the TPMS lower limit threshold are too high. Drop them to roughly 34 psi as shown on the tyre pressure label. You could set them even lower, say 32 psi. Also if the sensors are reading correctly, your tyres are well over recommended pressures!  Sensor number 2 is so high, that it is reading the tyre as not enough, even though it is at, or exceeded the maximum recommended tyre pressure! I have tyre pressure gauges to compare with each other, so I know that the pressures are close to what they should be.
Get everything adjusted (TPMS and tyre pressures), then see what happens.

thanks so muuch must try that.best of it all i only got 2 new Bridgestone tyres on the car the other day and lined the car so the guys in the tyre shop is the ones that put the tyres at that presure. i have ordered one of those wee digital tyre presure readers so should be here in the post shortly them i will sort out all the 4tyres and set the system to see

hello i bought oneof those digital tyre presure gaves online and well the two front tyres as they were put on new not so long ago are 34.9 and the two rear tyres are 24 in them i need to put more air in the reat tyres but tbh the two front tyres are correct. why would that front two tmps be so off going by the new tyres i put on and my gauge it says on them now .any ideas there buddy what to do.do you think i should take them all out and put a folder clip on them so gives presure and put into a box .what you guys think .costs a fortune those tmps sensors

hello there is there any way of doing this set up to a 2014 toyota avensis where do you guys think the wires need crossed .

Bear in mind that the link describes action on a Rav4  prior to when the legislation took effect. Devon Aygo's post above states:
