i just switched to winter tires and have tpms light on as well as system melfunction triangle .searched how to reset but manuel speaks of a reset button right hand lower dash under park break .i do not have the button .please shed some light how i can reset tpms ls460l 2007
thankyou

 

The reset button is far under the dash and difficult to find. Use a mirror to help you locate it.

 

Dear Vancouverl,
first all tires should be 33psi i recomend in the winter to be higher than that
then switch the car off and press the reset button for 5 seconds
check out the picture its the green arrow
then switch the car on caution will disappear
best wishes

 

thankyou i will look for it .
i do have a seperate set of tires and rims and they have sensors installed by resetting i take it this will recognise them
i have a message on dash saying go dealer

 

i have a picture of dash attached

 

attached pic, look up

 

wow thanks i would have never looked that far .very greatfull thanks again

 

any time, you are more than welcome

 

If you have a second set of TPMS on your winter tires they must be "registered" with the car's computer to be detected. When you change back to summer tires a re-registration for them will also be required. This has to be done at the dealer.

 

are you serious! every time you change tires you have to visit dealer ,that sucks im 300 kms away from dealer .no easier way?

 

Sorry to go off topic, but what is the volume adjust ****?

 

I think it's for the car alarm. The beeps you hear when you "arm" and "disarm" the alarm.

 

Hey VancouverL!

Yup, you will have to live with the warnings until you put your summer rims back on as there is no easy way to reset.

I went with winter rims and considered paying for an extra set of TPMS until I heard a dealer visit was required to reset. I am two hours from dealer so did not want to have to do that twice a year (plus I believe there may be a $70 charge).

I can live with the loss of the compass display and the warning only flashes at the start (It goes away completely when I return to my garage where wheels are stored but is retriggered when I drive more that 15-20 KMs).

Does seem like poor implementation given Lexus' previous excellent reputation for electronics.
