Tire pressure light issue

Them ?
I replaced the rear tpms receiver
The sensors do not need programming on an early ‘21

Easy fix. Disable the TPMS and check your pressures when rotating tires. I started having an issue after I went with aftermarket wheels and 35's. Disabled the TPMS all together. I am aware enough to know when a tire is underinflated enough that it would set off an alert.

My apologies if the tone seemed off on my reponse. I think I’m frustrated with the whole thing. If anyone has any ideas I’m open ears

Maybe something is up with my rear TPMS receiver harness
I’ll check it out later today

Yep I get it. Just letting you know unlike me and lots of others on the forum they’re not just guessing.

Which tool on Amazon will program the rear tpms receiver ? Any that are reasonable that anyone has used ?

when you say you switched the tires, exactly what do you mean? I assume you mean rotated tires. Is it the same wheel causing you problems or is the same wheel position?

On My early 2021 this all was very confusing. It had appeared to look like the tpms rear receiver was the culprit. I went to the dealer and they said first change the 2 sensors in the front even though it was still reading the rears were dead after rotating tires. Reason why I was there was to get my rear receiver programmed bc I changed it. They said come back after they are replaced and they would program new reciver or just go back to your old receiver since it likely wasn’t the issue.

so I went to tire shop and replaced the two sensors and did not program the new receiver and everything back to normal. It likely wasn’t the receiver but why didn’t I not have to reprogram the new receiver? I guess early 2021 doesn’t need any programming for anything in TPMS system?
