Default TPMS Light Flashing

I installed a set of 2014 OEM F Sport wheels with 2014 TPMS sensors on a 2010 IS250. Ever since then my light flashes for an entire minute then stays solid.

Just to avoid a trip to the dealer, how do I turn off the light? Thank you in advance!!

No way to keep them off unless you put you original sensor in the new wheel or program them as your second set of wheel.

you have to reprogram the new sensors to your car. Otherwise your car will never pick them up and its as if you don't have sensors.

Stop by at your local tire shop and has them reprogram it for you as a second set.

Ok, theirs no one local around here, I might as well go to the dealer at this point. I don't have the first set of sensors anymore (I sold them with the old wheels) so I'll get this put as the first set on the car.

Thanks everyone! Hopefully Lexus doesn't charge too much for this.

I thought the 3IS TPMS are not compatible with the 2IS?

I took the car to the dealer last week so they confirmed it, 2014 sensors will not work on prior years.

Oh well, I'll deal with the light on!
