Bought car new, TPM worked fine but after bought four new tires the TPM light came on the dash. Had the sensors checked all were good. Then the light would come on and flash then would stay on. Then after a couple days the light went off then it came back on took it to where we bought the tires they checked the sensors all were okay. Now light comes on flash then stays on. They want $65.00 for each sensor but do not know which one is causing the problem.

When you had the tires changed, did they fill with air or with nitrogen? If they used nitrogen, then I suspect that is the issue.

When this happens, the system acts erratic and doesn't make much sense. So I would suggest deflating the tires and refilling with air.

Here is another vehicle that was having a similar issue but had a different resolution:

Lastly here is a guide that talks about this issue. Let's run down all this info and go from there. Thanks
