Looking for advice.

I bought nearly brand new (700 miles) OT wheels and tires for my Premium plus.
After installing, the vehicle appears to have recognized them and showed the pressure for about a week.
After nearly a week, a warning on the screen popped up claiming defective TPMS system (something like that) and the tire pressure light was on the cluster.
The following day, the light went away but there is no reading on the main screen...

I went to Costco and asked if they can reset/calibrate the sensors. They connected the OBD connector to the vehicle and went around the car trying to connect to the sensors but was unsuccessful in recognizing them (no connection) except for the spare (which is original).

I trust the seller that he did not remove the original sensors from the OT wheels so have no reason to assume they aren't there.
The really odd thing is that I can still see the pressure on my Lexus App but not on the main screen settings...

Anyone experienced anything similar?
I don't feel like wasting half a day at the dealer unless I absolutely have to.
 
You need to register the new set of tpms sensors & wheels. Make sure the vehicle has been off for at least 15 minutes, then start the engine and go to Settings -> vehicle customize -> tire pressure and choose to register new sensors or register a second set of wheels, depending on what you want. Then drive around above 25mph until the tpms light turns off. The manual says it should take less than 30 minutes.

The vehicle was probably connecting to your old set of wheels and displaying the tire pressure from those wheels. You then probably took a slightly longer drive and the vehicle finally realized it didn't have a connection with those wheels anymore.
