[Shop-talk] OBD2 Scanner recommendations

All,

I'm looking for a recommendation for an OBD2 scanner capable of 
accessing the TPMS re-learning procedure on our 2024 Mazda 3. I just put 
winter wheels and tires on the car with new TPMS sensors. In spite of 
the owners manual telling me that the system should automatically read 
the new IDs simply by driving a certain distance, that appears to not be 
the case. I can't find any way to trigger a re-learn procedure using the 
car's menu settings. So I figure an OBD2 Scanner of some sort would take 
care of this task, since I expect that's what the dealer would do. I 
expect needing to go to the dealer each time I switch wheels will soon 
exceed the cost of the scan tool.

I do have a device that is supposed to wake up the sensors so that they 
will transmit their identity and data to the car's brain, but that 
didn't have any effect that I know of.
