tpms needs to be relearn everytime you changed any of the tpms sensor. There is no such thing as one TPMS only re-learn. The process of relearn is for the 4 actual sensors. Only the dealer can do this work. However, in Scarborough area, I can do this relearn for a small fee. if interested and if not disallowed by this forum, you can pm me your email address and i will contact you.

I had a leak from one of my original tpms sensor so I went into Firestone to replace it and now the TPMS warning won't go off. Is it possible for the Outlander to function correctly with one new tpms sensor and three original ones? Firestone told me only Mitsubishi dealers have the correct tool to fix the issues
, how much is the service charge for them to sync the new sensor?

They should have used a programmable sensor and cloned the ID, no programming needed at that point. The sensor ID is usually written on the factory sensor.
A company does make a "Quickset" tool which allows you to store 2 sets of sensor ID's in the device, so you can swap summer and winter tires. But you would need to know the ID of the new sensor. If you go back to the firestone shop, and lower your tire pressure to 15psi, that should activate the sensors. They can then use their standard tool to read all the sensor ID's and write them down for you.
Once that's done, you can use this quickset tool to pull the ID's from your computer. One of those ID's is no longer valid because the sensor was removed. Just insert the new ID for the old missing sensor and reprogram your car.
Or instead of going to firestone if you have the new sensor's ID number on the invoice or something. Use the quickset tool to pull all the ID's from the car, and replace the new sensor ID into 1 of the 4 ID's and drive around for 5 minutes. If that doesn't work, put the old ID back, and replace another ID until you figure out which one is no longer valid. Should only have to do it a maximum of 4 times.

This is another promising alternative tool, though i have no experience with it. However, this tool can also program Autel MX sensor ID's, which means you could have "cloned" the old sensor if you still had it. I'm probably going to buy this tool at some point for my winter set. $160 https://www.amazon.com/Autel-TS401-M...PWFAY9J6SF3TBK
Sensors are $30 each: https://www.amazon.com/Autel-MXSENSO...autel+mx+a0513

Thank-You, just stopped at the stealership he said $125 just to sync the sensor! Highway robbery. I stay clear away and only go for recalls/warranty work.

Seems i linked the wrong tool for mitsubishi, you need the ATEQ MitsuReset tool: https://www.amazon.com/ATEQ-Mitsubis...teq+mitsureset
