Ian - Hope you have more luck than me, I have got to replace all 4 of my sensors on my SC430 and I have had to go thru Lexus at a cost of £738. I have tried all over to get cheap sensors and nobody seems to stock them. If you manage to get some let me know, it's worth keeping note. I was hoping there was a way of turning the warning sensor off, that would have been the better option, but I have been told it can't be done. Good luck - Julie

Julie i have helped many people turn off the sensors on their SC430, but Lexus wont help as they are classed as safety feature.

Drop me your email and i can give you information with direction on how to do this.

Hi Ian,
Could you pass on how to deactivate the tyre pressure sensors, as no other tyre/wheel choice can be made.
Many thanks, ASif

Oh yes ,i've had them fitted,and are working fine.the sensors all send out a reading ,and the car finds that reading.In your hand book states were your reset,and program are,the rest is a walk in the park.One of my m8', used the old sensor ,took them off and fitted them to his new wheel,and had no problems.his sensor were on his car for 3 years, and came off easy.hope u win with yours cool.gif I've check the sensor and they all have the same part numbers.by turning your sensors off,u might lose your pre-crash,EBD systems , which all work on the same system,before turning your system off, find out more from dealer. ohmy.gif
