Default TPMS Malfunction?

So I just too off my aftermarket wheels off yesterday.
(Pressures were showing before swap)
Then I transferred those tires and sensors onto my stock rims.
Now my tire pressures show "----" with no TPMS dash indicator.
I went to NTB to get it reprogrammed, and he said all sensors read fine.
Cool, I drove it around for a bit more, but still shows "----"

Anyone know what's up?
The TPMS button did nothing, but flash the indicator three times.

Not sure why the indicator flashed 3 times, maybe you didn't press the button enough time?

Try again -
Scroll your MFD to 'Vehicle Settings', go to 'TPMS' and hold the reset button for 3 seconds, it's supposed to show a 'Tire pressure Recalibrating' message, then you should be able to see numbers again.

not sure why I’m just now seeing your post.

MFD as in the cluster or screen?
I just flashing three times is a cue that it is resetting?
still have no read outs, sadly.

NTB are fckups....went thru the same thing a year ago. The sensors need to be registered, but do not push the reset button as it relocks the ECU. Our cars have a locked and unlocked mode and the procedure must be followed.

what do you mean by register? Programming it to the car as normal?

I’ve been having issues with my OEM TPMS. They almost never display the psi anymore. It’s always lines. I was at discount a few weeks back and another GS350 owner came in complaining about hers as well. Same issue. She ended up buying new ones from them. I just left mine alone.

Did you try resetting the sensors from under the dash?

If you start your car and see the TPMS light flash about 10 -15 times and then stay on you have an issue. Mine read too but turns out the battery was so low they had to be changed. After switching to OEM sensors everything works fine. My 2013 was around 82 miles.
