Is it possible to program only one TPMS sensor or does it have to be all 4? I got 3 that are currently on my wheels but I just ordered one single one. Planning on getting it programmed so my lights can finally not show

Hook up a Techstream, write down all the sensor numbers, figure out which one is no longer working, add all 4 back in (including the new sensor number) viola! Set the pressures, push the initialization button and wait a few minutes, done.

If not using a dealership, then the process varies.

No, the computer will tell you the 4 ID's that are programmed. Once you take out the old broken sensor you will know it's ID and can add the 3 that aren't that ID with the 1 new ID and then you've got the 4 sensors that are on the car.
