Default TPMS reset

I got my hands on a magnet and got the car into learn mode. I got a horn beep at each corner and when the last one has been read is there a "special way" that I have to exit out? Although I got a beep at each corner its still not reading any tire pressures. These are Titan sensors that I got on Ecklers....

They are asleep, drive the car a few miles and then check to see if they are now reading a pressure.

It hit me as well - I just got back in from a spin around the block - I got readings on 3 of 4. Reset them again and now all 4 are getting readings - cool! So now the next question - what do people run them at on the street? Seems that they were shooting for 30psi but were a little high on one...

Well they won't be 100% accurate but they will let you know when a tire has / is losing air. Start with 30 PSI cold tires and the pressure goes up when they get hot. I had a bad digit gauge once and 'thought' I was putting 30 PSI in mine and after driving awhile I'd get a 'high pressure' reading on some of my tires. I checked with standard gauge and they were about 12 PSI too high ! I threw that digit (expensive) gauge away !
