Default Check system - low tire pressure light

I have a check system light and low tire pressure light on my dash...

I am assuming this is because of tire sensors...

I bought new wheels and sold old wheels that had my tire sensors...

I recently ordered all 4 new hankook tires for my vossen wheels...

My question is: how can I make this warning light go away...

If i buy only one tire sensor, will my warning light go away...

Or can i just reset the system and have no tire sensors...

Or do i have to buy all 4 tire sensors again???

I just want the check system and low tire pressure warning lights to go away...

What do i do?

I ordered tires from discount tire...

Do they sell tire sensors or do i have to get them from sewell or Lexus?

Can they program it or do i have to goto Lexus dealership?

Thanks

I have the low tire light on with all sensors installed and pressure checked


You cannot turn the light off . You have to buy 4 new sensors


that light is annoying I have it for no reason though

If i order 4 new tire sensors from sewell, do i have to take it to Lexus dealership to get them programmed or can my local discount tire program them and install them?

i don't want to pay $250 for these sensors and light still stay on

Most local tires shop could program it for you. Check on ebay for cheaper price.

or you can buy a used set for a fraction of the price and still get the same functionality out of them.

PM me if you'd like to purchase a set.
