So any ways I got my rims back from being powder coated and they came out pretty good. Just mounted up the tires today and they look really good too just one problem. The TPMS sensors are not reading :/ . They where fine B4 I removed the tires. What its doing is that the little orange traction light in the bottom right corner of the cluster blinks for a bit then stays lit. Nothing in the little display pops up and no red triangle either, just the orange traction symbol. BTW all tires are at 39psi


I have tried to follow the directions in the lexus instruction manuel. But I think im doing it wrong. When I get to the point to press and hold the On/Off button in the int. screen it just goes back to the normal display "It says the traction light is supposed to blink three times slowly" but it dosnt. Any help would be a great help. Thank you for your time. and pics of the rims after I figure out TPMS issue Thank you for your time and much Mahalo's

Look like your TPMS needs a programing but i may be wrong.

one of your sensors may have been damaged...

Have your lexus dealer scan for codes. and your tps is set up for the main set of wheels right?

Im asking about the TPS set up that can be changed through the **** on the left of the steering column where you can select between 2 types of TPS sensors. (EG. summer wheels and Winter wheels with diff sensors )

^ That would be my first guess. Then try bringing it to an independent tire shop and have the programming checked. If both fail, it's probably a damaged sensor.

Well im going to check it today, taking it back to the tire shop who mounted the tires. wish me luck

So everything got fixed, but what happened was the tire shop that mounted my stuff cracked one of the TPMS sensors. So my friend at Lexus gave me a new one for $100 and reprogrammed it and now everything is golden , Thanx everyone for your input!!

^ I hope the $100 included the labor and repogramming charges because you can buy those sensors for about $12 a piece...

^^^ +1 if you search you can find a set of 4 for like 35-40 bucks but oh well all that matters is its back to normal. That happened to me once but the sensor broke and was rolling around my rim.

^^ damn your TPMS exploded ha yea when it first happened to me my TPMS sensor light would turn on while driving but then go away when i would go under 5mph then i heard the rattle in the rim not cool its just a hassle going back to the tire shop for that.

Rufio808

Its ok the shop that dismounted the tire took care of the charge so it was fine
