    So the TPMS sensors in your OE wheels are not registered in the TPMS computer.

    I'm curious about what your TPMS light is indicating. When you start your car now, does the TPMS light flash for 1 minute and then stay on solid?

    I know from past experience putting the old set back on turned the light back off...
    ...if I were to put the VX wheels back on (with the old sensors which are currently programmed to the car), drove it until the light turned off, then swap on the OEM wheels (which currently are removed from the ECU) and reset it before it turns on the TPMS light, it should work.
    I believe that would work. As long as that TPMS light isn't flashing when you start the car, you should be able to register the sensor IDs into the computer using something like the Mitsureset tool. That's my understanding after reading the TPMS section of the Service Manual.
