Default TPMS problem

My wife got new Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP tires and her tpms is working. I got the same tires yesterday and today I checked the TPMS and it had no readings..just front l r and rear l r. Do I find a magnet and do the syncing or go to the tire shop.

Drive it a little and see if you get a reading. If the tire shop you bought the tires from is knowledgeable, let them do it for you, there should be no charge. You can also use a magnet and program them yourself in just a matter of minutes. Start with the LF, then RF, then RR then LR.

Love it. Also, the TPMS's are over 10 years old. It's possible they need to be replaced. Probably should have been done with the tire change.
