Does anyone know how to program TPMS's?
 
I have two sets of wheels with mounted tires and TPMS.

I also have the 7-character codes for all of the TPMS sensors and which wheels they are mounted in.

Lexus wants $60 to reprogram these everytime I change the wheels/tires as the seasons change.

I see on the Walmart page that they can do it for $20.

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/catalog.gsp?cat=495845

There can't be a lot of high tech stuff involved here. Could probably be done with a laptop, the proper software and a usb to OBD2 cable.

Is anyone aware if this stuff is available anywhere?

Thanks,

Whit

wal-mart can't do it... that is the relearn procedure for when you rotate certain vehicles tires...

lexus allows two different sets of tpms codes, simply get the second set programmed in (you will need the factory scantool or equivalent), then you can switch yourself...

The '08 LS460 does not have the 1st/2nd set option...only one set.

Sure, just get a Lexus scan tool!

They are... what, $8,000?
