TPWS RESET

Hey all...new guy here (2020 TRD) and I've searched everywhere and can't find my answer.

Situation:

Had new wheels/tires installed prior to delivery of vehicle. New sensors were cloned and all was fine until I got home when I checked tire pressure and needed to drop pressure by 8 pounds or so. Tires were in the mid 40s and I dropped them to 36 psi...which I realize could cause the TPMS light to come on. It did.

So, consulted the manual, get into GUI and can't seem to get either the reset TPWS or the Change Wheel function to work? How can I reset my pressure indication to come on based on my current tire pressure?

Any ideas on how I can reset this stuff?

Sounds like the dealer did not program the new sensors to the car. When I put on my new wheels all was fine until I tried to set the tire pressure. The TPMS light blinked a few times then stayed on. Had to get a wheel & tire shop to program the sensors to the car because I did not know the sensor IDs. The change wheel function is when you have two sets of IDs programmed to the car like one set summer wheels & one set winter wheels.

the original sensors are in the original wheels/tires. I had new sensors installed and things were ok...until I dropped the tire pressure. I'll reach out to them again to see what we can do...issue is that the wheel/tire shop is 180 miles away. Not the way I want to spend a day. :)
