Default TPMS & Key fob dead

I had an issue with one of the TPMS not working and then all died. I asked a group if the system was dead and was told in the key fob was working the TPMS was good. Now I don’t know what to do since both are dead. I was told I needed to start at the key fob, but that I would need a scanner to test the fob because it wouldn’t be just a battery issue. Can someone tell me if they had this issue and what was done to fix the issue.
TIA,
Robert

Have you retrieved any trouble codes from the DIC? Sounds like maybe your receiver module is at fault, it is located behind a panel on the drivers side roof pillar.

So have you at least replaced the battery in the FOB and tried to resync ?

Default How can I delete

I found the issue and feel so stupid. I did change the battery with no change in issue. I then dug out another fob, the one I gave my wife, and it worked. I tried programming the initial remote, but it wouldn’t program. I am going to buy a new OEM remote. Is there a way to delete this thread so I don’t bother anymore folks and to not look like an a-hole.

Don't worry about looking stupid. If I had a dollar for every time someone on the internet was wrong I'd be driving a Bugatti and a Koenigsegg.
