Tpms Help

Any ideas!! I have purchased 4 used OEM Tire pressure sensors for my 06 GS 300, Would need to have the sensors programmed for my car? I placed the sensors in the spare equally spaced apart and followed the reset procedure with no luck. Will the glove compartment option work if the sensors are programmed for my car? Any info would be great.. Thx Mobb...

My advice, bite the bullet and get a Lexus dealer to replace your tires or get a competent garage to do it.

Federal law in effect this year mandates tire pressure monitoring on all new cars, I had read something to that effect when I bought my 06 in August of 05. So all new cars will apparently have a similar problem.
