TPMS unable to code new sensors

[Jayw13702]

I have a 2013 IS300h that has just had a replacement set of wheels, at the same time I replaced the TPMS sensors.

Plugged the tech stream in and went through the TPMS registration wizard. Programmed all the TMPS codes and finished the wizard, at that point I get the following error message.

"ID registration failed due to communication error with the ECU whilst in initialisation mode"

Ive been into the live data and it tells me initialisation was complete but yet it still gives the same message.

The TPMS are the correct frequency, and are the right ones for the car but no matter what I do I cannot get the sensors to register.

any ideas?

Are the original wheels and sensors close by?

Not within a close enough range to confuse the system

might this tech doc help?

Distance from original sensors could be an issue. I recently systematically replaced the batteries in mine. On one recent longish journey with the re-batteried sensor sat on my desk in an upstairs room waiting for the silicon to cure the low tire warning changed to check system which remined on until I approached my house and at about 50/60 ft from my drive the system pinged and the dash reverted to low tire again. That took me somewhat by surprise but was repeated on a couple of other occasions with different sensors during the replacement procedure. (All up and running fine now completed)
