Default Put wheels on, WARNING light ON!

Hi Guys/ Gals,

I need some advise. I put on the new wheels on yesterday, and I drove it to work today and notice the warning light is on. It says "Check System."

What would the issues be? and what can I do to have it fix?
Thank you!

Regards,
Seto

Did they put the tire pressure sensors in the new wheels from your old wheels?

^^^^...and if they did, make sure that they pressed the button for second set of tires. Computer supports 2 sets of tires/sensors.

You can either go back to the tire shop and have them do it (if they can) or any other reputable wheel shop. If not, go to your local lexus dealer and have them do it. Otherwise you'll just have to drive around with that stupid light blinking all the time, but it won't pose any other problems.

yeah, i suggest you go to the wheel shop and get the sensors put back on because it's a pain to drive around with the light on. and once i didn't know i had a flat because it already showed that my tire pressure was low. ouch, it hurt. so i agree, get it done!
