Tire Pressure Monitoring System Fault

Tire Pressure Monitoring System Fault
I just had new tires put on my car, in the process the shop had to replace two of the tpms sensors. Now when I turn it on, is says “Tire Pressure Monitoring System Fault” on the dash and the tire pressure warning light flashes for a few minutes before just going solid.
Anybody have this or similar problem when replacing tpms sensors?

They don't have to be OEM LR sensors AFAIK but the TPMS system on the LR may need to be reset per my google search. Since I actually ditched the use of my original TPMSs due to corrosion I have not researched this procedure, I prefer to check my tire pressure manually per an old habit. Hopefully, someone with more knowledge will chime in and provide some insight.

That is quite interesting. You now have me wondering about the existing issue I have (described below)
My daughter's LR2 is saying pressure monitoring system fault and the light flashes then stays on solid. I had new tires put on at a tire shop and they confirmed all the sensors are working properly (now anyway, one had to be replaced), but they don't have a method of interacting with the main system module itself to further diagnose.
The tech I talked to said there was some sort of localization procedure that might need to be done based on what he found out from talking with a few people, but I'm not sure what that means or how to even reconfigure it, if it can be done...

I may be wrong about this but IIRC...
I think the car can learn new OEM sensors on it's own without programming. You have to drive it around for a while, as it "listens" for TPMS sensors to figure out which four are following it around so it can tune out any others which happen to be near by... that would matter at the factory, dealer, and a euro shop, or if you own another LR2.
I've seen at least one aftermarket TPMS where the sensor itself (not the car) had to be programmed to match the old sensor. It came with a proximity device to do that.
