Default TPS need help

Ok, i had to get my left front tps replaced. took it to the place I always take my car (not nissan), they replaced it. The problem is, that is still doesen't work, I get no reading and an alarm, they said to drive the car and it will clear the alarm and start working. well i have drove the car for a full day and still nothing, i reset the ecu and still nothing. Is there something we are missing here, i called them and they said to bring the car back in. Any suggestions.

problem is its not reading the sensor, Better have them look at it because they could have damaged it when replacing the new one. (very easy to do)
Somthing has to be wrong with this new sensor becuse it looks like the computer isnt picking it up and sees it as nothing there thus the loud anoying beep your getting. Good luck.

You need to take the car to the dealer to have them program it. It will not work just because you bought a new one.

Each sensor transmits a unique ID. If you remove a sensor and replace it with another, the computer is still looking for the previous ID. The dealer can re-register then sensor to the computer so it will be recognized.
