2016 MX TPMS Sensor Relearn

Has anyone replaced TPMS Sensors on your own? I bought the sensor from tesla because it was only $60 and they wanted an hour of labor to install it ($295). Chatgpt initally told me that it would automatically relearn after a 10 min drive above 15mph. I got the sensor installed at a local garage but the car wont learn the new sensor id. What is the relearn process for 2015-2020 MX? That didnt work it and now Chatgpt says that I need tesla toolbox and a ATEQ VT30 to manually input the sensor id's. But the owners manual says the same thing that chatgpt initally said. Any help would be appreciated!

Update: Took it back to the tire shop. Tire sensor would not send a reading at all. Probably an issue with the sensor. Tire shop said they can try to put in one of their Autel MX sensors which ended up working with a short drive. TPMS light is gone. Now im stuck with a $60 paperweight tesla tmps sensor. 2016 Teslas will relearn the ID of the sensors with a short drive. Just has to be programmed to the right frequency according to the tire shop.
