2011 Express new tpms No key remote

[53degN]

Bought new winter tires, wheels and after market tire pressure sensors at a local tire shop. They tell me that the pressure sensors can't be keyed to the vehicle without the original remote key fob. This van doesn't have power locks so I don't think it came with one. Bought it used so I can't be sure. Don't want to have to pay the dealer to fix this every time I swap tires between seasons. Thanks for reading.

Always stay with you origional sensors unless the tire shop destorys them.

If they are repaced get out the owners manual and go for a reset procedure on them.

If that does not work it is go to dealer or find a tire shop that has the stuff to reset everything.
