^^ Good to know.
Other options include, conformal coating. Its meant for tough environments and/or tamper resistance of circuit boards but its not a filler like a potting material although that should work too.
When you installed your 550-0103, did you have to get them programmed? Or it was picked up automatically?
Thanks
Yes, programming or registering is a must for the new TPMS to become initialized.
If you have a notebook installed with the Toyota Techstream software, get an OBD2 cable to link your notebook and the OBD2 socket of your car. Simply register the serial number of each TPMS in the ECU through Techstream will complete the programming. However, you will not see the effect immediately after the programming. You'll have to take you car for a test drive for several minutes to allow the ECU to catch and match the signal from the new TPMS.

on my 2007, I just rebuilt my wheels and installed a brand new set of Denso 055-0103 and programmed using my Techstream cable and software.
The 055-0101 were used on the 2006 only. Not sure what the difference was but they did have different Pacific P/N on them. 2006 (PMV1017) and the 2007+ (PMV107J).
From 10 years ago when we had this discussion here, I think the PMV107J was backward compatible with the PMV1017, but not vice versa.

I failed to mention in my previous posts that my IS is the 2006 model.
Just like PMV107J is backward compatible with PMV1017, my guess is that 055-0103 is also backward compatible with 055-0101 as it is working flawlessly on my 06 IS.
