I have showstopper LED side markers, so I disconnected them to see if that would fix the problem. It didn't. How far do you normally have to drive after you reset them? I know the manual says for 10 mins over 12 mph. Some guys say it resets after leaving their street. So anyways, I plugged the drivers side rear back in and now its like this.. The bottom part doesn't light up. I tried unhooking it and hooking it back up a few times. Plugged it in on the other side to make sure it wasn't wiring or the plug, still didn't work.. grrrr

If under warranty, see about a replacement. If not under warranty, you may need to just replace it. Sounds like a break in the circuit for those lower LEDs.
I never could get my TPMS sensors to sync with the car. Multiple tries with learn mode, no learn mode, days of driving, long trips, short trips. Nothing worked. I bought a $10 TPMS reset tool and it takes 1 minute and works every time.
I have two sets of wheels so I have to reset whenever I swap. GM sensors in both sets.
Search Ebay for EL-50448 TPMS Re-learn Tool. Most listings now under $10.

Reason: Addl info
These were on the car when I got it. The previous owner said the dealer couldn't figure it out. I went to a shop they used a relearn tool on it, then I drive about 40 miles, didn't work. Which makes me wonder if when the dealer out his aftermarket wheels on, if they put in the wedding sensors..
In case you guys were curious.. I decided to take my car to Discount tires this morning and see if they could fix the TPMS issue. I told them I thought the wrong sensors were in.. I was right. They also said they were the wrong sensors. Put the right ones in and bingo, everything works again. $237 and I'm happy..

Several years ago Discount Tires did their "rebuild" kit on my sensors when I bought tires. The rebuild is just new valve cores, gaskets, and the big nut that holds the stem in place, not new batteries.
Anyway, the nuts that DT supply with their rebuilt (and probably with complete new sensors) are a different OD than stock. It's particularly annoying to round off one of the nuts when you try to check the very light torque on them, and more annoying when you end up needing two different sizes of deep socket.
