Tire sensor not reporting
I had a tire changed over the weekend (left rear). All was well with the four sensors prior to the tire replacement. I had the tire off the car approx. 24 hours. Just noticed this morning that the wheel sensor is not reporting any tire pressure. I'm not getting any "service tire monitoring" or "low pressure" warning reported on the DIC. I went thru the sensor reprogram procedure, the three wheels that were fine, all reported back with the horn beep, the wheel with the new tire does not sound the horn. Any suggestions, or do you think my sensor has been damaged?

The sensor could be damaged... I have heard that if the tire shop replaces the valve (inside the stem on the sensor) with a different one (not the original) it causes the TPM transmitter to fail. If you have access to a compressor and a valve stem tool it might be an interesting experiment to swap valves with one of the working sensors and attempt to retrain....
