Default Tpms programing

Can anyone recommend a shop that can reprogram the TPMS sensors in Orange County area? Thinking about giving 714 Tires a shot but will gladly take any inputs. Thanks!

America's Tire can do it. Not sure if they do it free or not. I remember paying them, but it included programming and installing it into the tire. I was also able to program new sensors using the Carista app. Took a few tries, but it eventually worked!

America's tire will do it, and for free! they hard a hard time with my 2007 IS250 though, at two different locations so it's possible I have a busted OBDII port...

are you programming new sensors or did you have issues with the original ones? 2 things that happen on those vehicles. I might be wrong since I'm not near my manuals but I think you have a second set of wheels button. You need to make sure it's looking for the correct set. Also if the system gets messed with too much it goes into a lockout mode and you need a special tool to get it back into the regular mode

I was trying to program a second set of sensors, so I started with the car being set to the second sensor setting already. maybe this was wrong but I was not successful. also the sensors were from a 3IS and I have a 2IS. some say they were able to do it but I was unable to program 3IS sensors into a 2IS. maybe it's just my error.

Unfortunately the 3IS sensors are different frequency so they will not program to the 2IS.
