Question about OEM TPMS on different rims

cobra · 10-08-2014, 10:17 AM

I will be putting winter tires and rims with OEM tpms so is there any way I can re-program the ECU myself or the dealer has to do it every years.
I bought everything without knowing that but I don't want an idiot light in my face when I drive, thanks

I believe there is a tool you can purchase.

I programmed it myself. There's a thread on it.

yah dont do the 28psi approach cause you will probably damage your tire's structural strength. get the handheld device to reprogram.

I couldn't find the single wire plug to do the DIY reset, so I drove by my local Discount. Talked to one of the managers and he did the reset for free (typically would have cost $25). Great guys at that shop.

I have a 2011 Nismo...Any ideas where the plug would be? I just finished installing the RJM clutch pedal so I was all up in that and saw nothing resembling the pics on the DIY.

It's in the same group of wires traveling from the obd plug.

Many national tire shops will do it for free. Discount Tire does it for free here in Houston.
