Tire Pressue Monitor - No reading
Hi, I just got 2015 GS about 2 weeks ago, and I could have sworn the center display showed the tire pressure. I got new tires put on it last week, and now all the tires just show a "--" symbol. Is there something I need to reset or do I need to go back to the tire place and have them fix something?

Read the manual. You can reset it in about 30 seconds. It may be hard to find the button the 1st time you try it but keep looking....it's down there under the steering wheel.

The tire warning light is not on at all. I did the procedure in the manual when I held the tire reset light button on the bottom of the dash until the tire light blinked three times slowly. I have driven about 75 miles so far, and this is still what I'm seeing on the display:

I had the same problem after getting my first set of tires from Discount Tire. A sensor failed and caused them all to stop working. I bought an aftermarket sensor from them, but they couldn't get it to work after multiple attempts with the scan tool. Finally they got an OEM sensor and it synced up up no problem (on their dime...)

Yup, they messed up a sensor. Have them recheck it. Guarantee thats what happened. They'll crack the sensor, and that takes out whatever part of the oem sensor that communicates the pressure info for the display, but in the tpms ecu, it can read the pressure. This is also why aftermarket sensors don't seem to work for the models with the dash readouts.

I called the dealer and told them that I got new tires and Discount Tire was unable to register the sensors. (They were able to read them all). Lexus says $150 an and hour and a half to re-register the sensors, provided that's all that's wrong. How can it possibly take 1.5 hours to re-register tire sensors?

UPDATE: Went to the dealer today and for the fantastic price of $327, they replaced one non-OEM sensor which fixed the problem. Now to go back to Discount Tire. I'm really struggling to understand how the dealer charges $200 in labor to replace a $98 sensor. I didn't think unmounting and re-mounting a single tire, then re-syncing the sensors was that big of a deal.

I'm experiencing the same thing with the set of OEM sensors that I've just put into my new wheels/tires. Though, I'm not getting the TPMS warning showing up the dash, but the system is not showing the PSI.
I've just went to Discount Tires to have them re-learn the TPMS sensors, they end up telling me that the Lexus/Toyota sensors will automatically relearn itself after a while and the PSI data should show up them. Is that true?

If you are using the same sensors, then I believe that maybe 1 or more sensors could be damaged or they may need to be re-regsitered again with the vehicle (given that you already tried the TPMS reset button underneath the steering column area).
