Default TPMS sensor help. Duplicate Sensor fault

My 06 Z06 I bought an extra set of wheels for drag radials an two supposedly correct TPMS on ebay. When the mechanic tried to train the new senors for the rear wheels his hand held unit said "Duplicate Sensor". The original tires an wheels were miles away. He was able to get a honk from car for each front sensor but the fault on the two rears.

This just means that the alphanumeric IDs associated with two (probably the rear) sensors are identical. Someone could have screwed this up cloning them. Have them read the IDs with a smarter TPMS tool. Then just replace one of the duplicates.
