Default TPMS install problem

My front right TPMS was never there, not sure if the orignal owner broke it and never had it fixed so they put a regular stem in. Anyways i bought a new one online and had the tire pulled off and they installed it but my display still shows only the front right tire psi showing "XX". Did I buy someones broke TPMS valve or do I need to reset something. I have an 05 C6 M6(not Z51). Thanks for any help.

First of all, I assume you got the correct sensor for a 2005-2009 C6. You should have gotten a gray peanut shaped sensor with GM Part# 25758220 molded into the case, like the one in the picture below:




Second, you have to program the sensor's ID# into the TPMS computer memory. For the 2005-2009 you need a tool to do the procedure you see in the video below:
