TPMS Sensor Flash (How To)
I just got new wheels on the car and the OEM sensors are not pairing up. I have driven about 40 miles so far. Just called the dealer and they want to charge me 100 bucks!!!!! Anyone have any ideas or input on how to get this done for free. I cant imagine this being something that takes the dealer more than 5 min.

Where did you get the tires from? The store I bought my winter tires from for my previous vehicles would always reset the sensors for me free of charge. The dealer won't do it unless they swapped the tires for you.

Got them from a custom tire shop. From what i have been told since the sensors are brand new they have to be programmed in the cars computer. At this point i have found a FireStone that will do it for 19 bucks. So the dealer at this point is about a 500% markup.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but they deleted that ability with the 2014 model. Another to hell with the customer move by Lexus.

Well hopefully one of the techs will chime in soon enough. CJW, the Edmonton/Calgary thread has some techs at Lexus of Edmonton I believe, but not sure. Try that thread to see who's a tech
