Resetting the TPMS sensors.

[jbillion]

I had a small bubble in one of my tires from road damage. I swapped it out with the full size spare and had the wheels balanced at the local Goodyear store. Ever since then, the TPMS does not get a reading inside the car. It just reads all *. I called the dealer and they said I need to bring it in for service and have the sensors reregistered. This will cost ~ $58. Does this seem like the standard cost associated with this? Also, is the dealership the only place to have them reregistered?

I'm lost. You have the spare on the car now? correct?

"had the wheels balanced"? What wheels, all 4 or just the spare.

Either way, sometimes it takes a while to recalibrate but they eventually will on their own. No need for a dealer trip. When I had my 20s put on it. It took about 3-4 days for the rears to finally read. Some say you need to drive around at 35+ for awhile....but I think its just a time deal.

I had my tires rotated at the Infiniti Dealer in Madison but there computer was broke and they could not reset my sensorsnext trime i was in Chicago at Motorwerks i just drove in told them my problem and the service manager walked around my car with a hand held hooyah and in two minutues air pressure readers were working againhe did this for free but he knew me from previous service on a few infinitii think in my case i need the dealer to reset as it was a couple weeks and a thousand miles and tpms was not working
