Default Changed rims... tpm trouble

As stated I had the monttors and tires put on thin spokes. Now the left front reads xxx and i'm getting the "service tire monitor" message. Got the service manual out, took a magnet and reset all 4 sensors. Took it for a drive and same thing . Any Ideas?

sounds like a bent tire sensor. look inside the valve stem and see if its bent or crushed in. Chances are whoever transferred the stems over on the new wheels messed that one up. Happened to one of mine the other day and they had to put a regular one in for the time being so now that wheel is reading XXX... Good luck
