Default 08 VP TYRE PRESSURE SYSTEM DEFAULT light

Guys, the Tyre pressure system default light came on so drove up to Discount Tire they checked all 5 TPMS , and did a reset and light went off. But low and behold it reappeared. The car has brand new Pirell's 2K miles or so and the TPMS were also replaced at the time except for the spare but it checked out okay at Discount tire. Any ideas where to go from here we be appreciated. Thanks.

Battery life is a major factor, as well as the quality of replacement parts.

No worries they tested them at the tire center , all including the spare and they were fine..I may have to check out the receiver : part C2C24259 and were it is located..tomorrow . And I'll pull the positive cable on the battery and do hard reset see what happens. Thanks for you help

Everything is fine: batteries, initators, antenna and module. You must complete the adaptation procedure, including replacing the spare tire, exactly as described in the "Owner's Manual" or "Tech Guide," otherwise the TPMS error will keep popping up and going off. This car is hopeless in many ways, and TPMS is one of them.
